Dolby Laboratories Announces Stock Repurchase Program

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 3, 2009--Dolby Laboratories, Inc. (NYSE:DLB) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $250 million of its Class A Common Stock.

Stock repurchases under this program may be made through open market transactions, negotiated purchases, or otherwise, at times and in such amounts as Dolby considers appropriate. The timing of repurchases and the number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, regulatory requirements and other market conditions. Dolby may limit, suspend or terminate the stock repurchase program at any time without prior notice. Any shares repurchased under the program will be returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock.
