BSM Technologies announces Normal Course Issuer Bid accepted by TSX Venture Exchange
TORONTO, March 28, 2012 /CNW/ - BSM Technologies Inc. ("BSM" or the "Company") (TSX-V: GPS), a leading provider of remote monitoring, fleet management, fleet diagnostics and automated vehicle security systems, announces that the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") has accepted its normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB") to purchase, subject to regulatory approval, up to an aggregate of 29,325,611 common shares ("Common Shares") of the Company, representing 10% of the Common Shares issued and outstanding.
As of March 27, 2012, there were 293,256,117 Common Shares issued and outstanding. Purchases under the NCIB may begin on March 30, 2012 and will end no later than March 20, 2013. The Common Shares will be purchased for cancellation through the facilities of the TSXV in accordance with its policies and at market price. The Corporation shall make available a maximum of $500,000 to fund the repurchase of Common Shares pursuant to the NCIB.
The Board of Directors and senior management of the Company believe that its Common Shares have been trading in a price range that does not adequately reflect their value in relation to the Company's business and future business prospects. The repurchase of the Company's Common Shares therefore is a worthwhile use of funds and in the best interests of BSM and its shareholders.

Such statements are qualified in their entirety by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations of the Company include, among other things, potential acquisitions and investments, volatility in stock price, credit risk, competition, foreign currency risk and environment and market risk. Such forward-looking information should therefore be construed in light of such factors, and the Company is not under any obligation, and expressly disclaims any intention or obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
