Aldila, Inc. intends to commence a “Dutch auction” tender offer to
acquire shares of its common stock. The golf company intends to spend
up to $7.5 million to repurchase up to 496,688 shares of common stock,
or up to 9% of the outstanding shares at a price per share not greater
than $16.85 and not less than $15.10. The tender offer is expected to
commence on August 24, and to expire at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time,

2006. Under that program, the company repurchased approximately
108,000 shares of its common stock through the use of open market
transactions.
