PicScout Recognized Among Fastest Growing Companies

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, Nov 01 (MARKET WIRE) --
PicScout, the market leader in worldwide image services and enabler of
client image monetization activities, today announces that the company
has been ranked among the top 10 fastest growing technology companies of
the 2009 Deloitte Israel Technology Fast 50. To determine that PicScout
is among the fastest growing companies in Israel, Deloitte reviewed and
calculated revenue growth percentages for fiscal year revenues over five
years (2004-2008), comparing growth across all technology companies, and
ranking PicScout number 4.

"We are very pleased with the achievement and recognition which the
Deloitte Fast 50 signifies and thank all who have worked so hard and
believed in PicScout -- our investors, our team, and last but not least
our loyal customers --these are the people who have enabled us to achieve
this recognition," said PicScout CEO Offir Gutelzon. "We anticipate
ever-increasing PicScout performance as we strengthen the image industry
with our newest technology platform. Just as our success today points to
our distinguished proprietary technology in image fingerprinting and
tracking, PicScout looks to imminent and dramatic growth as we now enable
the image industry with yet another transformative model that moves the
industry to credit and monetize every image wherever one may be found."

Recently, PicScout made a series of announcements based on its powerful
PicScout Image IRC http://tinyurl.com/ybfu7tj with wide industry support
for its enabling platform http://tinyurl.com/yjpwdvf. PicScout
developments for the industry point to a new model where every image gets
its credit. With ownership and licensing clarified, and an infrastructure
facilitating connection for transactions with image users, a ubiquitous
online image marketplace has emerged that already boasts tens of millions
of images identified and offered through the PicScout Image IRC platform.

"PicScout was ranked 4 thanks to its growth rate of 3200% over the five
past years, and we commend PicScout for making the Deloitte Technology
Fast 50. The industry's growing demand for PicScout's technological
solution will undoubtedly enable the company to continue its significant
growth in the upcoming years as well," said Tal Chen, director in charge
of the Deloitte Brightman Almagor Zohar Technology Fast 50 Program.
