Altum Named the 19th Fastest Growing Virginia Technology Company in Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50 Program

Reston, VA. September 26, 2003 - Altum, Inc. has been named to Deloitte & Touche's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Virginia, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche, 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.

Altum's CEO, Ken Fang, credits "outstanding people" as the primary foundation for the company's 791% revenue growth from 1998-2002. He said, "Altum is honored to be recognized for this achievement along with companies like Nextel and webMethods. We are also extremely excited as this marks just the beginning for Altum. We have spent the past few years investing in our greatest resources: our employees. They, in turn, deserve the credit for facilitating our growth. We look forward to continuing this growth trend in the coming years."

"The Deloitte and Touche Virginia Technology Fast 50 companies have shown the strength, vision and temerity to succeed despite a very challenging technology environment," said Gary H. Tabach, Partner in Charge of Deloitte & Touche's Virginia Technology Fast 50. "We applaud the successes of Altum and acknowledge their place as one of the few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past three years."

Altum's increase in revenues of 791% percent from 1998 to 2002 resulted in a ranking of number 19 overall in the Fast 50 for Virginia.
