Five-Year Sales Growth of 207% Places ABT 28th  on This Year’s Regional List

Newtown Square PA , October 1, 2001 – ABT, Inc. has been named to the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50 Program for Eastern Pennsylvania, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area.

ABT’s President and CEO David Moldoff credits ABT employees and clients with the company’s 207 percent revenue growth over the past five years. “It takes teamwork within our company to develop great software, and it takes teamwork with clients and users to implement that software as a solution. At ABT, we value good people who want to work as part of a team focused on developing and delivering technology solutions for educational institutions.  As our tagline says, we believe that ‘Together we can do anything.’

“The Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50 recognizes and honors the fastest growing regional technology companies whose leaders have the vision and determination to beat the odds and build companies that contribute to the world with long-term solutions,” says Michael Purcell, Partner, Technology & Communications Practice, Deloitte & Touche.

ABT’s increase in revenues of 207 percent over the five-year period of 1996 to 2000 resulted in a 28th- place ranking overall in the Fast 50 for Eastern Pennsylvania.  To qualify for the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 1996 and at least $1,000,000 in 2000; must be public or private companies headquartered in Eastern Pennsylvania; and be “technology companies” defined as  companies that produce technology, manufacture a technology product, or devote a high percentage of effort to research and development of technology.
