Sep. 24, 2010 (Marketwire) --

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/24/10 -- PNI Digital Media (TSX VENTURE: PN)(OTCBB: PNDMF), ("PNI" or the "Company"), the leading innovator in online and in-store digital media solutions for retailers, announced that the Company is ranked among the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Canada, based on the percentage of revenue growth over five years. PNI Digital Media's increase in revenues of 1055% percent from 2005 to 2009 resulted in a 20th ranking.

For over 13 years, the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ program has tracked the successful growth of Canadian-grown global leaders. Now Canada's pre-eminent technology award program, the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ augments the broader Deloitte North American Technology Fast 500 initiative, with winners automatically eligible for this elite ranking.

"Canadian technology companies have demonstrated some very impressive growth numbers over the past year, amid the challenges of an uncertain global economic recovery," said John Ruffolo, National Leader, Technology, Media & Telecommunications Industry Group, Deloitte. "PNI Digital Media is an example of the determination, drive and skill that will serve to position them for further growth and success in the years to come."

PNI Digital Media's CEO, Kyle Hall, credits the dedication of the PNI team and the strength and adaptability of the PNI Digital Media Platform with the company's 1055% revenue growth. Hall said, "Our team is working diligently to deliver on new solutions to carry the PNI Digital Media Platform into new markets. The combination of growth in our core market and the push into new markets will enable us to meet our goals."

To qualify for the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ ranking, companies must have been in business for at least five years, have revenues of at least $5 million, be headquartered in Canada, own proprietary technology, and conduct research and development activities in Canada. A panel of industry experts evaluate and judge companies based on four key criteria: competitive advantage; size, growth, and market attractiveness; management effectiveness and organization; and financial performance.
