SOUTH NORWALK, Conn. – November 11, 2004- EDGAR® Online®, Inc.(NASDAQ: EDGR), a leading provider of value-added global business and financial information, today announced that it has been named to Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Connecticut, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche LLP, one of the nation’s leading professional services firms. Deloitte bases its rankings on the percentage of growth in fiscal year revenues over five years, from 1999–2003.

EDGAR Online president and CEO Susan Strausberg credits rapid growth in subscription revenue with the company's 32 percent overall revenue growth from 1999–2003. Strausberg said, “We are pleased to be honored as one of Connecticut’s fasting growing technology companies. With our focus on developing powerful analytic tools that allow our clients to greatly reduce the time they spend searching for data and spend more time on analyzing it, we expect to continue to grow revenues and further establish EDGAR Online as a leader in the new technologies.”

David Carver, Partner, Deloitte’s Technology, Media & Telecommunications practice in Connecticut, said, “To succeed during prosperous times is one thing; to succeed in adversity is much more challenging, and that’s exactly what the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 winners have done. We applaud EDGAR Online for its tremendous accomplishments during economically challenging times and for being one of the elite Fast 50 companies in Connecticut.”

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 1999 and $1 million in 2003, 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.
