Web Site Listed in Washinton's Fastest Growing Technology Companies

SEATTLE, Oct. 15, 2004; CarDomain Network, has been named to Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Washington State, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche LLP, one of the nation's leading professional services firms. Rankings are based on the percentage of growth in fiscal year revenues over five years, from 1999-2003.

CarDomain Network's CEO, Alex Algard, credits a strong customer focus and a rapidly growing online community for the company's 2,442% percent revenue growth from 1999 through 2003. He said, "We at CarDomain are very excited to receive this prestigious award. Our company mindset is to be forward-looking and strive for continuous improvement, but receiving this recognition provides us a good opportunity to reflect on the tremendous achievements and contributions of our hard-working staff over the past five years."

"In today's economy, quadruple-digit percentage revenue growth is an exceptional accomplishment. We commend CarDomain for making the commitment to technology and delivering on the promise of market longevity," said Larry Hile, partner with Deloitte. "We are proud to honor CarDomain as a Deloitte Technology Fast 50 winner."

CarDomain Network's increase in revenues of 2,442% percent from 1999 to 2003 resulted in a 5th place ranking in the Fast 50 for Washington State.

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 1999 and $1,000,000 in 2003, must be public or private companies headquartered in North America, and be a "technology company" defined as owning proprietary technology that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues (using other companies' technology in a unique way does not qualify); and/or devoting a significant proportion of revenues to research and development of technology.

Winners of the 19 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America's top 500 fastest growing technology companies.
