CDC Software Press Release

CDC Software, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation and a provider of enterprise software applications, announced today that it was named “One of the 50 Fastest-Growing Software Companies 2006” by Baseline Magazine for its enterprise software solutions including Ross ERP (enterprise resource planning) and SCM (supply chain management), Pivotal CRM (customer relationship management), c360 CRM add-on products, industry solutions and development tools for the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform, MVI real-time performance management, IMI warehouse management and order management, Platinum China HR (human resource) and business analytics solutions.

According to Baseline, only public software companies that generated more than $10 million in revenue in the calendar years 2004 and 2005 were considered. Companies were required to derive the majority of their revenue from software-related businesses, which excludes IT consulting and services firms and companies that are primarily content providers.

“We are very proud to be listed as one of the Top-50 fastest-growing software companies,” said Eric Musser, president of CDC Software. “This is especially satisfying because our growth during 2005 was driven by our consistent ability to deliver measurable value to our customers. Since 2005, we have experienced accelerated growth, both through organic expansion within our targeted vertical industries, and through strategic acquisitions. Looking ahead, as we continue to establish our solutions as the defacto standards for the industries we serve, CDC Software is well positioned for this growth trend.”

This recognition comes after a spate of awards and recognition for CDC Software this year.
