Pope Resources Announces NASDAQ Ticker Symbol Change

POULSBO, Wash., April 3, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Pope Resources (Nasdaq:POPE) announced today that effective tomorrow, April 4, 2008, its Nasdaq trading symbol will be POPE instead of POPEZ. This change in the company's ticker symbol represents a simplification of the former symbol as Nasdaq determined that the non-standard fifth-letter "Z" was no longer necessary for Pope Resources.
