Stephen Pudles, President and CEO, stated that, "This latest action demonstrates the Board's belief in the continued success of the company and the long term value it will bring to investors. API is virtually debt free and has accumulated a substantial cash position in anticipation of a future acquisition. At current market valuations we believe that the best acquisition API can make is its own common stock. This program does not preclude API from making future acquisitions or other initiatives to enhance shareholder value."
