First-Ever List of 5,000 Fastest-Growing Businesses Reports Total Revenue of $194.5 Billion

Anexinet Listed on the 2007 Inc. 5,000 with Three-Year Sales Growth of 143%

New York - September 17, 2007 - Inc. today ranked Philadelphia-based Anexinet Corporation on its first-ever Inc. 5,000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The Inc. 5,000, an extension of Inc. magazine's annual Inc. 500 list, catches many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.

"The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy - the entrepreneurial part," said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. "The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies in industries like Manufacturing and Construction that are underreported in the business media."

Anexinet is a leading regional IT solutions provider for enabling organizations to achieve competitive and operational advantages with technologies such as Service-Oriented Architecture, Enterprise Portals, Business Intelligence, Enterprise Content Management, Business Continuity, and Corporate Performance Management. Anexinet serves clients in Financial Services, Life Sciences, Insurance, Government, Retail, Manufacturing and Energy industries. The company has experienced phenomenal growth since its founding in 2000, including a three-year sales growth of 143% for 2003 through 2006.

The 2007 Inc. 5,000, as revealed online at www.inc.com, reported median revenue of $9.4 million and median three-year growth of 140 percent. Complete information on this year's Inc. 5,000, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The list features a profile for each company, almost all of them written as a result of Inc. interviews with management. In addition, the list is searchable according to numerous criteria, including industry, city, state, region, and year founded.
