INTERMEC ANNOUNCES $75 MILLION SHARE REPURCHASE AUTHORIZATION

EVERETT, Wash. – June 7, 2010 – Intermec, Inc. (NYSE: IN) today announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the company to repurchase up to $75 million of its outstanding common stock in open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions.

Intermec expects to fund the share repurchases through a combination of currently available cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand.  Intermec ended its first quarter of 2010 with a cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balance of approximately $225 million.  The number of shares and the timing of any share repurchases will depend on factors such as the stock price, economic and market conditions, regulatory considerations and the relative attractiveness of other capital deployment opportunities.   Any repurchases are intended to make appropriate adjustments to the company's capital structure and are for general corporate purposes. The Company had approximately 61.8 million shares of common stock outstanding as of April 23, 2010.

“This action by our Board of Directors reflects our confidence in the financial position of the company and our commitment to enhancing shareholder value.” said Patrick J. Byrne Intermec President and Chief Executive Officer.
