FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
INTEGRATED MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS SUSPENDS PUBLIC OFFERING
Beaverton, OR - June 24, 1996 - Integrated Measurement Systems
(NASDAQ:IMSC) today announced that it has suspended the public offering to
sell 2,525,000 shares of Common Stock.
"IN LIGHT OF THE RECENT WEAKNESS IN THE STOCK PRICES FOR COMPANIES IN THE
HIGH TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY, WE FEEL THAT IT IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR
COMPANY OR OUR SHAREHOLDERS TO CONTINUE WITH THE OFFERING AT THIS TIME," said
Keith Barnes, President and Chief Executive Officer of IMS.
IMS designs, manufactures, markets and services a family of versatile, high
performance engineering Test Stations used to verify and characterize complex
electronic devices. In addition, the Company develops, markets and
supports a line of Virtual Test Software that permits design and test
engineers to automate test program development and to conduct simulated tests
of electronic device designs prior to the fabrication of the prototype of the
actual device.
IMS products enable its customers to shorten time-to-market, enhance accuracy
of design, reduce both the time required to test and the cost of testing the
customers' devices and provide reliable and prompt feedback to both design
and test engineers.
