The 2008 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 rankings are based on percentage revenue growth from 2003 to 2007. Online Resources' growth rate for that period was over 250 percent.

"As our Company undergoes a major transformation, this recognition is a reminder that we are on the right track," stated Matthew P. Lawlor, chairman and chief executive officer of Online Resources. "A few years ago we set some strategic growth goals to transform our company into a major force in online financial and payment services. Today we have reached many of those goals, as we have expanded our services into complementary markets, established a strong competitive position and achieved scale."

"Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 recognizes companies who have achieved extraordinary growth in North America's most innovative and competitive market sectors," said Phil Asmundson, Deloitte LLP vice chairman and national managing partner for Technology, Media and Telecommunications. "We congratulate Online Resources on this significant accomplishment."

Fast 500 Selection and Qualifying Criteria

The Fast 500 ranks the fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in North America. It is compiled from Deloitte's regional North American Fast 50 programs, nominations submitted directly to the Fast 500, and public company database research. Companies are selected based on percentage revenue growth from 2003 to 2007.

Entrants must own proprietary intellectual property or proprietary technology that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues or devote a significant proportion of revenues to research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify. Base-year operating revenues must be at least $50,000 USD or $75,000 CD, and current-year operating revenues must be at least $5 million USD or CD. Companies must be in business a minimum of five years, and they must be headquartered within North America.
