Company Demonstrates Accelerated Year over Year Growth Since Inception in 1999; Revenue Growth up 38% from 2007

NEW YORK, August 24, 2009 — Perimeter eSecurity, the trusted market leader of information security services that delivers enterprise-class protection and compliance to companies of all sizes, announced its recognition on Inc. magazine’s third annual Inc. 5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy.

“It’s an honor to be included in this prestigious business ranking again for the third consecutive year.   Perimeter has demonstrated resilience in this economy and we’ve achieved a 38 percent growth in revenues since 2007,” said Kurt Heinemann, Chief Marketing Officer at Perimeter. “While companies have trimmed IT spending during the economic downturn, information security services remains an area of increased investment as companies across sectors face new heightened security and compliance risks.  Perimeter’s flexible and cost-effective security-as-a-service platform is becoming the go-to source for both small-to-medium and large enterprises.”

The 2009 Inc. 5000 serves as a unique report card on the U.S. economy.  Despite the ongoing recession, aggregate revenue among the companies on the list actually increased to $214 billion, up $29 billion from last year, with a median three-year growth rate of 126 percent.  The Inc. 5000 are responsible for creating more than one million jobs since their founding, making the list perhaps the best example of the impact private, fast-growing companies can have on the economy. Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found on Inc.com.

“Savvy trend spotters and those who invest in private companies know that the Inc. 5000 is the best place to find out about young companies that are achieving success through a wide variety of unprecedented business models, as well as older private companies that are still expanding at an impressive rate,” said Inc. 5000 project manager Jim Melloan. “That’s why our list is so eagerly anticipated every year.”

The Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2005 through 2008. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generate revenue by the first week of 2005, and therefore able to show four full calendar years of sales. Additionally, they have to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies — as of December 31, 2008. Revenue in 2005 must have been at least $200,000, and revenue in 2008 must have been at least $2 million. The top 10 percent of companies on the list comprise the Inc. 500, now in its 28th year.
