Ebix Response to Stock Price Drop
Ebix, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBIX) a leading international supplier of On-Demand software and E-commerce services to the insurance industry, today stated that it had received calls from shareholders regarding the sudden drop in the price of its common stock as quoted on NASDAQ. The Company stated that it is not aware of any negative developments within the Company or in its operations that would warrant in such a sudden drop in the price of its stock.
The Company also reiterates its policy of not responding to individual blogs that speculate on the operations or future results of the Company.
The Company also refuted the random implications in a recent blog posted on Seeking Alpha about the Company. The Company normally does not comment on blog posts, but believes it is the author's intention to advance his interests, and the interests of other investors that have taken a position adverse to the long-term growth prospects of the company. It is management's opinion that this post misrepresents and distorts facts not relevant to the Company's current financial position, long-term growth prospects and management policies. To that end, the Company reiterates its long term growth initiatives and expansion opportunities, both domestically and internationally with an expanding distribution channel and broadening a product offering.
The Company holds its directors, officers and employees to the highest ethical standards in both its business operations, and in its efforts to achieve long-term value for its shareholders. The Seeking Alpha post appears to have been issued specifically to cause a decline in the Company’s stock price to support the increase in the short interest in the Company stock, and purchases of stock options related to these short positions. The company is considering filing a formal complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Trading and Markets and Division of Enforcement, to report this anonymous blog targeted at causing a decline in shareholder value. The Company will take other appropriate action if needed to protect its business operations and the reputation of its management team, board of directors, employees and partners.
The Company also reminds investors about the Investor Conference on April 1, 2011:
The Ebix Investor Conference will take place from 8:00 am onwards at the NASDAQ MarketSite®, 4 Times Square, New York and will be attended by the Ebix President and CEO Robin Raina along with many of Ebix’s top tier Senior Managers including the Ebix CFO and Exchange senior management.
