Innospec Inc. Announces Expansion of Stock Repurchase Program and Dividend Increase
Innospec Inc. (NYSE: IOP) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the acceleration of the Company's stock repurchase program with the intention of spending up to $15 million over the next twelve months.
The timing of purchases and the exact number of stock to be purchased will depend on market conditions. The buyback program does not include specific price targets or timetables and may be suspended at any time.
The Company intends to immediately enter into a Rule 10b5-1 plan to facilitate repurchases of its stock under this program as well as maintaining its strategy of making additional repurchases in the open market outside of the Rule 10b5-1 plan. The plan will allow the Company to repurchase up to 300,000 shares of common stock. The plan will run until April 26, 2006.
Innospec also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a final dividend for full year 2005 of $0.08 (eight cents), an increase of 14% per share from the 2004 final dividend. The dividend is payable on April 1, 2006 to the holders of record of the common stock of the corporation on February 17, 2006.
Paul Jennings, President and Chief Executive Officer of Innospec Inc. said, "Expanding our buyback program and increasing our dividend by 14% is an excellent use of Innospec's capital that reflects the Company's strong cash generation, as well as our confidence in the Company's growth strategy and commitment to enhancing shareholder value."

In a final decision, the Technical Board of Appeal of the European Patent Office (EPO) agreed with Innospec and three other opponents that the patent (EP 0743974) was not inventive, and ordered it to be revoked. The decision revokes not only the United Kingdom Patent, but the equivalent patent in all European countries where it was in force through grant by the EPO.
Infineum's patent, which covered the use in low sulphur diesel fuel of a combination of ester-based lubricity enhancers with EVA cold flow improvers, was granted in 2000, and had been the subject of proceedings to revoke it for more than 5 years.
This latest success completes a series of similar actions that have been concluded in the past year, the overall result of which has been to open up the field of diesel additives, and give customers much less restricted choice. Innospec and the same three other opponents as noted above also opposed European Patent EP 0743972 owned by Infineum covering the use in diesel fuel of a combination of polar nitrogen compounds and ester lubricity enhancers, arguing, as last week, that it was not inventive: the Board of Appeal agreed, and revoked the patent. Similarly, Infineum's EP 0764198, covering a combination of polar nitrogen compounds and EVA was also revoked for lack of inventive step. The major part of yet another patent owned by Infineum, EP 0807155, which was for diesel fuel containing succinimide detergents and ester lubricity enhancers, was also revoked by the EPO last November following proceedings brought by two opponents, including Innospec.
Patent attorneys Appleyard Lees worked with a team of specialist patent litigators from Addleshaw Goddard to help Innospec achieve its latest success.
A spokesperson for Innospec stated, "As an innovator and owner of substantial intellectual property, we respect patents owned by others. However, we remain fully committed to taking action to defend the right of customers to choose to purchase Innospec's products when we believe they are unfairly prevented from doing so. Customers will now be free to use Innospec's lubricity additives free from the risk of being sued for infringement of these invalid patents."
