High-Tech Writers ROANOKE RAPIDS, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RNKE-- Roanoke Technology Corp. (OTCBB:RNKE) reiterates, without reservation, that the policy mentioned previously on the buy back of company stock in the open market is firm and will be implemented promptly on receipt of funds from the sale of the $12 million bond. The plan for fund utilization, which will be pursued when the sale of the bond is completed in three to four weeks, allows for up to $2 million to be used for stock buy back. RNKE C.E.O., Mr. David Smith added, "I intend to personally supervise the buy back of our stock to ensure that maximum value is obtained and hopefully this will also reduce significantly the `shorting' that continues to occur."
