SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 22, 2003

Continuous Computing Corporation (CCPU), the leading provider of application ready solutions for telecom equipment companies, today announced that it ranked number one in Deloitte & Touche's Technology Fast 50 Program for San Diego. The award ranks Continuous Computing first among the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche LLP, one of the nation's leading professional services firms. Rankings are based on the percentage of growth in fiscal year revenues over five years, from 1998-2002.

"Achieving this phenomenal revenue growth rate of 28,372% is a testament to our resolve to be a leading provider of telecom equipment solutions for voice over packet, wireless and signaling applications in the core of the network," said Ken Kalb, chief executive officer of Continuous Computing. "We are proud of the employees who have enabled our success and equally proud to be recognized by all of the sponsors of the prestigious Deloitte & Touche San Diego Technology Fast 50 Program."

"The Deloitte & Touche San Diego Technology Fast 50 companies have shown the strength, vision and temerity to succeed despite a very challenging technology environment," said Helen Adams, partner of Deloitte & Touche's San Diego office. "We applaud the successes of Continuous Computing Corporation and acknowledge their place as one of the very few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past five years."

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 1998 and $1,000,000 in 2002, must be public or private companies headquartered in North America, and be a "technology company" defined as owning proprietary technology that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues (using other companies' technology in a unique way does not qualify); and/or devoting a significant proportion of revenues to research and development of technology.
