Pacific Sands CEO Comments on Recent Trading Activity


RACINE, Wis., July 22, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Pacific Sands, Inc (OTCBB:PFSD) CEO Michael L. Wynhoff comments on recent trading activity:

Over the past several trading days, Pacific Sands common stock has traded down under apparent heavy selling pressure.

We wish to assure our shareholders that there have been no negative developments in either the company's business activities or its capital structure which would warrant such a decline.

Capital Structure:

As of the posting of this news release, according to our records and those of our transfer agent, the company has 29,410,111 shares issued and outstanding. That compares to 30,298,973 at the end of fiscal year 2004. Those numbers represent an actual reduction of 888,862 shares over the past year.

The overall reduction in shares outstanding was accomplished through a below market share buyback of more than seven million shares from previous management and other related parties. The majority of those shares were then converted back to restricted stock and sold to individual investors in order to fund the operations and the turnaround of the company.

The company has no substantial debt. The company has no dilutive instruments such as warrants, debenture, convertible debt, preferred shares or S-8 Stock Options. No members of management or the board of directors have sold any stock in the company.

The company is not currently in active negotiations with any financing entity.

The company has not issued any new free trading stock in several years and has no plans to do so.

Business Activities:

The company has achieved a continuing and dramatic rise in sales and revenues over the past three quarters while fixed costs remain stable, low and predicable. The vast majority of our expenditures beyond fixed costs at this time are dedicated to advertising, marketing and sales.

Recent Trading Activity:

Management can see no apparent explanation for the recent decline and selling pressure on the stock and no major shareholders have contacted us expressing an intent to sell.

We will be carefully examining all shareholder and trading reports available to us over the next several weeks. If we determine that there has been any type of malicious manipulation of our stock, we will pursue it with every means available.

We at Pacific Sands take our relationship with, and our responsibility to our shareholders very seriously. Every one of us has dedicated painstaking time, effort and money to the success of this company and its products. We have shown and proven our dedication to our shareholders since taking over management in 2004 with our diligent fiscal responsibility and our absolute commitment to the execution of our business plan.

We encourage our investors to go back and read our annual report from last year. In that report, we set forth a very specific series of goals. We have met or exceeded every goal we set in that document.

Lastly, there has been some concern expressed recently over our recent switch of investor relations contacts from JT Ploch to Stuart Smith at SmallCapVoice.com. Our parting with Mr. Ploch was amicable in every way and we have been planning for it for several months. JT has been, and remains a dedicated friend to Pacific Sands. Finding a suitable, honest and capable replacement for him has been very difficult, but we believe that Stuart will be successful in getting our message out to the broadest audience possible.
