CapitalStream Ranked Number 14 in Deloitte's Technology Fast 50 Program for Washington State

Over 300 Percent Revenue Growth Attributed to Increasing Demand for Straight Through Processing in Business and Commercial Lending


Seattle, WA–November 20, 2007

CapitalStream Inc., a leader in front office automation solutions for commercial finance operations, has been named to Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Washington State, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, and life sciences companies in the region by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the nation’s leading professional services organizations. Rankings are based on the percentage revenue growth over five years from 2002–2006.

CapitalStream's president and CEO, Kevin Riegelsberger credits a significant increase in demand for Straight Through Processing (STP) in Business and Commercial Lending for the company's 303 percent revenue growth from 2002–2006. Riegelsberger said, “We’re moving up in the rankings – from number 17 last year to number 14, and seeing the benefits as our FinanceCenter solution matures and offers even greater value to our customers. This has been a year of unprecedented growth as we expanded our Best Practice Model with more standard out of the box processes and capabilities that allow midsize banks to run our platform without an extensive implementation project. As more and more of our customers have had the system implemented for many years we are validating the ROI with case studies showing over 100% efficiency gains. We have equipped some of the world’s largest financial institutions with the tools necessary to not only automate lending but to be more competitive as well. The entire CapitalStream team is to be congratulated on this award for its continued commitment to offer the most comprehensive straight through processing platform in the marketplace.”

CapitalStream's increase in revenues of 303 percent from 2002 to 2006 resulted in a 14 ranking in the Technology Fast 50 for Washington State.

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be headquartered in North America, and be a company that owns proprietary technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify.

Companies from the 16 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America’s top 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies.
