Strong Demand for Unified Communications, Security, Storage, Wireless and Optics Drives Presidio to Five-Year Compound Annual Growth Rate of Over 17% Company Achieves Gains Across Its Entire Service Portfolio, with Advanced Technology Solutions Showing Greater Than 30% Revenue Gain in the Last Twelve Months Greenbelt, MD – December 12, 2006 – The Presidio Corporation, a leader in the design, development, deployment and management of complex infrastructure solutions for enterprises and government agencies, has continued its growth by achieving a five-year compound annual growth rate of over 17%. This stellar performance reflects the acceptance of, and burgeoning demand for, unified communications, security, storage, wireless and optics – all advanced technologies that have seen revenues increase by over 30% in the last year. Presidio provides comprehensive technology solutions to businesses and a wide range of the largest federal government agencies in the U.S. “The Presidio Corporation has been a strategic partner in the design and implementation of our data networking and IP telephony solutions,” said Don Jaycox, CIO for DLA-Piper, a global law firm with over 3,200 attorneys in 62 offices. “Presidio provided valuable engineering resources during our firm’s migration from traditional PBX voice systems to a single IP telephony system, while helping us deploy advanced wireless, routing and switching technologies. In addition to providing advanced technology solutions and outstanding support, Presidio’s quality engineering staff has become an integral part of our network design process.” Presidio’s robust gains indicate the strength of its relationship with Cisco Systems as one of its leading Gold Certified Partners. This certification, along with its deep engineering and technical talent – approximately 46% of Presidio’s workforce holds certifications – are major differentiators in the marketplace. “Presidio is one of our leading channel partners at delivering integrated and innovative communications solutions to enterprise customers,” said Edison Peres, vice president and chief go-to-market officer for Worldwide Channels at Cisco. “As a TelePresence Advanced Technology Provider (ATP) partner, Presidio is one of the initial group of channel partners selected to sell, deploy and support the Cisco TelePresence solution – an exciting new technology that is revolutionizing how businesses collaborate and communicate.” “After selection by Cisco as one of the first ten channel partners in the United States to bring the advanced Cisco TelePresence Meeting Solution to market, Presidio has already launched three TelePresence customer centers across North America,” said Rudy Casasola, CEO of Presidio. “This honor caps a period in which we witnessed dramatic growth in demand – from both the private and government private sectors – for our breadth of innovative offerings in unified communications, wireless, security and storage. We’re gratified to be selected by an ever-growing number of organizations and enterprises as the preferred provider of their mission-critical technology infrastructure.” Presidio’s sustained growth was also punctuated by a number of top industry accolades. In 2006, the company received the US Outstanding Performance Enterprise award from Cisco, recognizing Presidio as the top performer in enterprise accounts for Cisco’s East/New York Metro region, a geography comprising one of the highest concentrations of advanced-technology companies in North America. The company also was awarded the Partner Advantage CSAT Award from Nortel Networks, achieving the highest customer-satisfaction survey score of all of Nortel’s US Elite Advantage Partners. “One critical factor in our sustained growth is repeat business, and we give our highest priority to customer service,” added Casasola. “Organizations that have trusted Presidio for years continue to broaden the scope of their Presidio deployments, whether through new network build-outs or the addition of new services – while commercial businesses, enterprises and government agencies continue to come to us based on first-hand customer testimonials.”
