DENISON SHAREHOLDERS' APPROVE STOCK BUYBACK AND
APPOINTMENT OF DIRECTORS AT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
MARYSVILLE, Ohio, June 2 - Denison International plc (NASDAQ:DENHY) announced
today its shareholders unanimously approved several measures at the Company's
Annual General Meeting held May 24, 1999.
Shareholder approval was granted for the Company to puchase up to 10% (1.1
million shares) of its own shares, subject to certain provisions. "While we
still feel that the best utilization of the Company's capital liquidity is to
seek out and finalize acquisitions that will help to grow Denison well into the
future, we look upon the approval to purchase Denison shares as a reconfirmation
of shareholder confidence in the management of Denison to do whatever it takes
to increase shareholder value", commented J. Colin Keith, Denison Chairman.
Shareholders also approved the re-appointment of Anders C H Brag, Managing
Director, as a Director of the Company, and the appointment of Bruce A Smith,
