– Software Magazine ranks Intec as one of the world's largest software companies –

London, September 23, 2004 – Intec today announced its inclusion on the Software 500, Software Magazine's list of the world's foremost software and services providers, published as an online catalogue on Softwaremag.com. Intec was ranked 190th, with software revenue in 2004 of $90.2 million.

“We are delighted to enter the prestigious Software 500 for the first time this year at number 190,” said Intec CEO, Kevin Adams. “Intec has enjoyed over 40% compound growth over the past five years, and with our recent acquisition of the Singl.eView retail billing business from ADC we are still growing rapidly.”

The ranking is based on total worldwide software and service revenue for 2003. This includes revenues from software licenses, maintenance and support, training and software-related services and consulting. Suppliers are not ranked on their total corporate revenue, since many have other lines of business, such as hardware. The financial information was gathered by a survey prepared by King Content Co. and posted at Softwaremag.com , as well as from public documents.
