Wallace Shareholders Continue To Reject Moore Tender Offer
Hillside, Ill., September 19, 1995 -- Wallace Computer Services, Inc. (NYSE:
WCS) today commented on Moore Corporation Limited's second extension of its
hostile tender offer of $56 per share. "This morning, Moore disclosed that 1.6
percent of shares have been tendered," said Bob Cronin, Wallace president and
CEO. "As a follow-on to Moore's disclosure on August 28 that less than 1
percent had tendered, Wallace shareholders appear to be consistently rejecting
the $56 per share offer.
"Moore claims that their offer reflects Wallace's current performance and
future potential. Nothing could be further from the truth. Once the date for
our annual meeting is set, shareholders will receive our proxy materials which
will give them additional factual information.
"The company's business continues to be strong, and we are continuing to
develop significant new customer relationships, many at Moore's expense.
Analysts have been raising their estimates to keep pace with the growth they see
in Wallace's earnings since the offer."
<PAGE>
As previously announced, Wallace's Board of Directors determined that
Moore's unsolicited hostile tender offer of $56 per share is inadequate and not
in the best interests of stockholders, and that in light of the company's future
prospects, the interests of the stockholders will be best served by the company
remaining an independent entity. The Board has recommended that stockholders
not tender their shares.
Wallace is one of the nation's largest manufacturers and distributors of
information management products, services and solutions. The company recently
reported fiscal 1995 results that included a 17 percent increase in income on a
21 percent increase in sales for the fiscal year. In the fourth quarter, the
company generated 33 percent increases in both net income and sales.
