Business 2.0 Magazine Names Neoware One of America's 100 Fastest Growing Technology Companies
June 9 2006Neoware, Inc. (Nasdaq:NWRE), the leading supplier of thin client software and devices, today announced that Business 2.0 magazine, published by The FORTUNE/MONEY Group of Time Inc., has named Neoware one of America's 100 fastest growing technology companies.
Neoware is "hot," according to Business 2.0, because "sales of 'thin client' PCs that offload processing to central servers are growing 23 percent a year." A thin client is a lower cost computer that connects to the network and runs applications on servers. As a result, the cost of managing desktop devices is much lower, and security is much higher, because applications and data are on the server, not the desktop device.
"Being recognized in Business 2.0's Top 100 Fastest Growing Tech Companies validates the trend towards our model of thin client computing, and is a result of the rapid adoption of Neoware products," said Michael Kantrowitz, Chairman and CEO of Neoware. "Neoware customers are increasing their security and lowering their costs."
Neoware, the fastest growing thin client company, is focusing its research and development resources on software innovation -- a strategy that Kantrowitz believes will continue to accelerate thin client adoption. "Companies are realizing that with Neoware software they can have the security benefits of thin clients on their existing PCs," said Kantrowitz. "Every day there are news stories about how losing a PC can mean the loss of vitally important corporate and personal information. Our thin client products help enterprises finally solve these significant security problems."
Neoware was selected as one of Business 2.0's 100 Fastest Growing Tech Companies from more than 2,000 technology companies that have been publicly traded on a U.S. stock exchange for at least three years, have a market capitalization of at least $50 million, and have had a positive operating cash flow over the past 12 months. Final selection criteria were growth in revenue, profit, and operating cash flow during the past three years, and 12-month stock return as of December 31, 2005.
Business 2.0's 100 Fastest Growing Tech Companies article can be found in the June 2006 issue of Business 2.0 magazine, and online at http://money.cnn.com/magazines/business2/.
