Kurt Wolf Intends to Retain Large Personal Stake in Pitney Bowes, Reflecting Strong Confidence in the Company’s Go-Forward Value Creation Prospects

Hestia Capital Management, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Hestia”) today announced that it will distribute approximately 1.5 million shares of common stock of Pitney Bowes, Inc. (NYSE: PBI) (“Pitney Bowes” or the “Company”) to limited partners. This includes a distribution of approximately 1.1 million shares of Pitney Bowes to Kurt Wolf, who is the Chief Executive Officer and a sizable individual shareholder of the Company.

Hestia’s decision to distribute shares to its investors was made, in part, to align its portfolio with Hestia’s current views on position diversification and sizing. As Hestia continues to take actions that it believes are in the best interests of all of its limited partners, there could be additional share distributions to investors including Mr. Wolf.

Given his stated confidence in Pitney Bowes’ long-term value creation prospects, Mr. Wolf intends to retain a sizable personal stake in the Company.

About Hestia Capital

Hestia Capital is a long-term focused, deep value investment firm that typically makes investments in a narrow selection of companies facing company-specific, and/or industry, disruptions. Hestia seeks to leverage its General Partner’s expertise in competitive strategy, operations and capital markets to identify attractive situations within this universe of disrupted companies. These companies are often misunderstood by the general investing community or suffer from mismanagement, which we reasonably expect to be corrected, and provide the ‘price dislocations’ which allows Hestia to identify, and invest in, highly attractive risk/reward investment opportunities.
