StockerYale, Inc. (NASDAQ:STKR), a leading designer and manufacturer of structured light lasers, LED modules and specialty optical fibers for industrial OEMs, medical and defense markets, today announced that it has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and mailed to StockerYale shareholders definitive proxy materials in connection with the Company’s 2008 Special Meeting in Lieu of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which will be held on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the offices of Vitale, Caturano & Company, Ltd. at 80 City Square, Boston, Massachusetts 02129. StockerYale shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 26, 2008 will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, StockerYale shareholders will consider and vote on, among other things, the approval of the reincorporation of the Company from Massachusetts to Delaware.




StockerYale’s Board of Directors unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the reincorporation of the Company from Massachusetts to Delaware.

“We believe that the Company and its shareholders will benefit from the comprehensive, flexible and well defined corporate and legal environment provided by Delaware law,” stated Mark Blodgett, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of StockerYale. “Reincorporation to Delaware should provide the Company with more opportunities to raise capital to support our industrial OEM business and as we execute on our bioinstrumentation market opportunity, and to better position StockerYale in a consolidating market for lasers and specialty optical fibers. Further, it may also make it easier to attract future candidates to our Board of Directors, given their familiarity with, and the pervasive use of, Delaware corporate law in corporate America.”

StockerYale is seeking, and applicable law requires, approval of the reincorporation by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of all of the shares entitled to vote. StockerYale previously submitted to the shareholders the proposal for the approval of the reincorporation of the Company from Massachusetts to Delaware at the 2007 Special Meeting in Lieu of Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 22, 2007. Although the Company received an affirmative vote on such proposal from the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote, the Company failed to receive the requisite affirmative vote of two-thirds of all of the shares entitled to vote at last year’s meeting.

The vote of StockerYale shareholders is very important regardless of the number of shares of common stock they own. Whether or not shareholders are able to attend the Special Meeting in person, they should complete, sign and date the proxy card and return it in the pre-paid, addressed envelope promptly. Voting by proxy now will not affect the shareholder’s right to vote their StockerYale shares in person if they choose to attend the Special Meeting. A failure to vote or an abstention from voting on the reincorporation proposal will have the same legal effect as a vote against the approval of the reincorporation.

Shareholders are encouraged to read the Company’s definitive proxy materials in their entirety as they provide, among other things, a detailed discussion of each proposal and the reasons behind the Board of Directors’ recommendation that shareholders vote “FOR” the reincorporation of the Company from Massachusetts to Delaware.

die sind ja mittlerweile richtig runtergekommen.
hatte sie mal vor ein paar jahren und 2004 verkauft. erst große versprechungen die den kurs von 1 auf 7 usd jagten dann verkaufte der ceo mächtig und ließ sich den fetten gewinn nicht nehmen.

kann jeden nur vor dieser klitsche warnen. wobei man sie sicher zocken kann hin- und wieder. ich glaube nicht dass der laden noch ein paar jahre lebt

Du magst recht haben.Das muß jeder für sich entscheiden.Es mag sein,das es einen kleinen Rücksetzer geben wird.Ich bin tief unten rein und hoffe ,das ich mit Geduld auch noch länger bleibe.
Vertrauen habe ich nur in sehr wenig an der Börse.Der Kurs zeigt den Moment,nmehr nicht.Sehr oft wird man zum zocken gezwungen.
