Richardson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President.

Share repurchases may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and trading restrictions. This authorization has no expiration and may be cancelled at any time.

OUTLOOK

“While we were disappointed with our overall sales volume during the quarter, we have been successful with delivering operating margin near our target of 5% as we carefully manage our mix of sales, expenses, and investment opportunities. We are optimistic that the economy, particularly in Europe, will show improvement in the coming months which will strengthen our sales early in FY 13. We are confident that the investments we have made in service will begin to drive incremental power grid tube sales as planned,” said Mr. Richardson.

“We expect that sales for EDG and Canvys for Fiscal 2012 should be in the range of $160 to $163 million, up 1% to 4% over Fiscal 2011. We remain confident that we will be able to achieve our 5% operating margin target by the end of the fiscal year,” concluded Mr. Richardson.

CASH DIVIDEND

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors voted to declare a $0.05 dividend per share to all holders of common stock and a $0.045 cash dividend per share to all holders of Class B common stock.
