EDMONTON, Dec. 5, 2012 /CNW/ - Medwell Capital Corp. (the "Company") (TSXV: MWC) announced today that it is conducting a normal course issuer bid. Under the bid, which will be conducted pursuant to the rules of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"), the Company may purchase up to 363,500 of its common shares (the "Common Shares") representing approximately 5% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares.
The bid will commence December 10, 2012 and will expire December 9, 2013 or such earlier date as the Company may complete its purchases. The price at which the Company will purchase its shares will be the market price thereof at the time of acquisition.

The Board of Directors of the Company believes that the current market price of the Common Shares may not fully reflect the value of the Company's business and its future business prospects. As a result, the Board has concluded that the purchase of the Common Shares may represent an appropriate and desirable use of the Company's funds and further enhance market stability.
