(“Vecima” or the “Corporation”) (TSX:VCM), an experienced designer and manufacturer of innovative technology in the broadband equipment market, announced today that it has filed a notice of intention with the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) to acquire for cancellation, by way of normal course issuer bid (the “Bid”), up to 600,000 Common Shares of the Corporation (the “Shares”), which, at the date hereof, represents approximately 2.7% of the issued and outstanding Shares and approximately 9.5% of the total public float of the Corporation. This Bid was approved by the TSX. The directors of Vecima believes the underlying value of the Corporation’s common shares may not be reflected in the current or future market price of its common shares and has therefore decided to undertake the Bid.

An automatic purchase plan has been put into place and will be effected at the commencement of the Bid. During its last normal course issuer bid which ended October 27, 2017 the Corporation was approved to purchase up to 600,000 of its common shares but purchased 35,300 of its common shares at an average price of $8.43; all of these shares were purchased solely through the facilities of the TSX.

Purchases pursuant to the Bid will be effected solely through the facilities of the TSX and other Canadian trading platforms, purchases and payment for the Shares will be made by the Corporation in accordance with TSX requirements and the price which Vecima will pay for any Shares acquired under the Bid will be the market price for the common shares at the time of acquisition.
