Echelon's common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market stock exchange under the ticker symbol "ELON." Shares can be purchased or sold from any licensed stock brokerage firm or financial institution that provides such services.

KPMG LLC has been Echelon's public accounting firm since March 2002.

Echelon does not have a direct purchase plan at this time.

Echelon does not currently issue dividends. Because we are a growing company, we reinvest cash back into the business to fund key programs such as research and development, so that we can continue to maintain and extend our technological lead. Therefore, the company does not have a dividend reinvestment program (DRIP).
