SinglePoint Named to Deloitte's 2008 Technology Fast 500 Annual List of the Fastest Growing Companies in North America

SinglePoint today announced that it ranked number 376 on Deloitte’s 2008 Technology Fast 500, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in North America. Rankings are based on percentage of fiscal year revenue growth over five years, from 2003–2007. SinglePoint grew 361 percent during this period.

SinglePoint’s CEO Rich Begert credits growing consumer interest in receiving text alerts on topics they care about and brands’ interest in building consumer loyalty via mobile phone campaigns with the company’s 361 percent revenue growth over the past five years.

Begert said, “SinglePoint’s highly scalable technology successfully sends millions of text messages for interactive TV shows and for standalone nationwide text message alert campaigns to opted-in, engaged consumers through partnerships with all U.S. mobile phone carriers, including Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. And our latest solution, SingleBrand, enables the insertion of targeted advertising into these millions of text messages for more revenue-generating opportunities.”

"Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500 recognizes companies who have achieved extraordinary growth in North America’s most innovative and competitive market sectors,” said Phil Asmundson, Deloitte LLP vice chairman and national managing partner for Technology, Media and Telecommunications. "We congratulate SinglePoint on this significant accomplishment."

In addition to ranking on Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500, SinglePoint ranked 20 on the Washington Technology Fast 50, which is a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology firms in Washington State.

Fast 500 Selection and Qualifying Criteria

The Fast 500 ranks the fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in North America. It is compiled from Deloitte’s regional North American Fast 50 programs, nominations submitted directly to the Fast 500, and public company database research. Companies are selected based on percentage revenue growth from 2003 to 2007.

Entrants must own proprietary intellectual property or proprietary technology that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues or devote a significant proportion of revenues to research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify. Base-year operating revenues must be at least $50,000 USD or $75,000 CD, and current-year operating revenues must be at least $5 million USD or CD. Companies must be in business a minimum of five years, and they must be headquartered within North America.
