Press Release Summary: SADIF-Investment Analytics SA has applied its StockMarks(tm)
stock-rating system to Dolby Laboratories and produced a research report, rating the
company's attractiveness to long-term investors.

Press Release Body: Mira, Portugal - October 24, 2008 - SADIF Investment Analytics
SA, today announced the release of a new equity research report covering Dolby
Laboratories (DLB). The report utilizes SADIF's powerful StockMarks(tm) stock rating
system and is required reading for any current or potential Dolby Laboratories
investor.

Report Summary: US-based audio and video technology company Dolby Laboratories
develops and licenses technologies for both the consumer and professional market.
The company's technologies are used in DVD players, computers, televisions and other
consumer electronic devices. Dolby's share price has fallen by more than twenty-six
percent since the start of September compared to a twenty-nine percent decline in
the S&P 500. The stock was bolstered by Dolby's strong results for the company's
fiscal third quarter ending June 27th. During the quarter, Dolby increased revenues
by twenty-nine percent and income by more than fifty percent compared to the same
period a year earlier. However, the economic environment of today is vastly
different the period over which these results were achieved. With the economy
teetering on recession, fears are mounting that the company will see a decline in
revenue due to tight credit markets and from a knock-on effect of lower consumer
electronic sales during the coming holiday period. Nevertheless, when we take a
long-term perspective we should focus on the company's underlying fundamentals
rather than market speculation to aide us in our investment decision making. We can
assess Dolby's long-term fundamentals through the use of the StockMarks framework.
Dolby currently has an overall long-term investment-attractiveness rating of 77,
placing the company far above the US market average. This rating ranks Dolby third
when compared to nine of its closest US-listed peers, selected on the basis of both
similarity of business and market positioning factors such as size.


The complete report breaks down the Total StockMark into its three components -
Business, Management and Price, performing a thorough analysis of Dolby Laboratories
for long-term investors.
