Coastal Holdings, Inc. Initiates Stock Buyback Program


HOUSTON, Aug. 5, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Coastal Holding, Inc. (Pink Sheets:CSJJ) is pleased to announce that it is initiating a stock buyback program. Under the program, shares may be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or unsolicited negotiated transactions, depending upon market conditions at the company's discretion. This buyback plan is in response to the company's strong conviction that the share price is undervalued at current levels. CSJJ has made significant progress in adding value to the company by acquiring a major equity interest in Vetdermal Systems Limited and planning to make a significant investment in BioSight Ltd. CEO Andrea Cortellazzi stated: "We believe that common share repurchase is an excellent means of providing and maximizing shareholder value."
