Business/Technology Editors

WATERTOWN, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 19, 2001

Molecular, a leading Internet services firm, has been ranked 348th in the elite "Deloitte & Touche Fast 500" for 2001, a ranking of North America's 500 fastest-growing technology companies.

The Fast 500 program ranks competing companies based on five-year revenue growth (1996-2000). In that time period, Molecular realized steady growth, yielding a 1,493% increase overall.

Molecular, a Fast 500 winner for the second year in a row, attributes this high growth rate to Molecular's ability to consistently provide clients with solutions to exactly meet their needs, while paying special attention to customer care.

"From content management to portal development to consolidation of online channels, Molecular offers a core of very specific solutions, aimed at helping businesses through the toughest issues they face today," said Ralph Folz, president and chief executive at Molecular. "In line with our solution offerings is our commitment to customer care. Through building strong business relationships with our clients, we are able to get a good picture of what their needs are and how Molecular can meet and exceed them.

The Fast 500 list is compiled, in part, from Deloitte and Touche's 22 regional North America Fast 50 programs. Molecular was 27th on the New England Fast 50 list, ranking technology companies in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

"We are extremely pleased to be on both lists," Folz said. "We owe this distinction to the many clients who have worked with Molecular over the years. We have many great client relationships, and several of our clients have been with Molecular since the very beginning. We appreciate their business and the partnerships we have built over the years."

Deloitte & Touche also applauded the role of Molecular's leadership team in winning this award. "Making the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 500 is a testament to a company's leadership, commitment to technology and ability to deliver the right solution at the right time," said Mark A. Evans, managing director, Deloitte & Touche Technology & Communications Group. "With its 1,493% five-year growth rate, Molecular has proven that its leadership has the vision and determination to succeed, and we at Deloitte & Touche salute their accomplishments."
