ASI Continues Growth in First Half of 2008
Market Wire, August, 2008
Advanced Solutions International (ASI), the leading global provider of web-based software for associations and non-profits, today announced that it continued to see revenue and profit growth over the past six months ending June 30, 2008. Significantly strengthening its international presence, the company reached the following milestones:
-- ASI achieved record revenue during the first half of 2008 with a 6%
increase in software license revenue and 15% increase over target in
EBITDA. ASI's international operations in Canada, Europe and Australia
collectively achieved record revenue for the first half of the year.
-- ASI acquired U.K. charity and fundraising software company, Fisk
Brett, creating the largest, privately held software provider in the world
focused on member and donor-based non-profit organizations. The combined
entity includes nearly 3,000 customers and 210 employees in seven offices
worldwide.
-- ASI continues to expand its customer base across the non-profit
market, adding new customers such as the Starlight Children's Foundation of
Australia, the Malaysian Nature Society and Crown Financial Ministries
(U.S.A.).
-- An independent report by Lehman Associates confirmed ASI's leadership
position in the association market with a nearly 40% market share, an
increase over 2007. The 2008 AMS Association Market Study compiled data
from national and international associations with budget sizes of $2
million or greater in North America, and showed that iMIS led other major
AMS vendors in meeting customer expectations for the time, cost and ease of
implementation. New iMIS customers in the association market include the
Royal Statistical Society (U.K.) and the Association of Professional
Engineers & Geoscientists of British Columbia.
-- ASI announced the availability of iMIS Friendraising, a fully
integrated online fundraising application. The peer-to-peer fundraising
tool was introduced to help organizations increase overall campaign
revenue, streamline participant communications, and provide donors with the
unprecedented ability to quickly build and maintain their own networks
online.
-- The company received three major industry awards for support and
performance. Service Strategies Corporation (SSC) recognized ASI with a
certification in Service Capability and Performance (SCP) support standards
for the sixth year in a row, as well as professional service standards for
the second consecutive year. ASI was also honored with the Software Testing
Best Practice Award from the International Institute of Software Testing
(IIST).
-- ASI added six iMIS partners, including GoLightly, Orbis Software,
iDashboards, Bluesky Broadcast, Job Target and Boxwood.
"Building upon our success in 2007, we have made significant strides in the non-profit market and maintained our leadership position in the association space," said Bob Alves, chairman and CEO, ASI. "We will continue to give customers access to new social media technologies, closer integrations with third-party applications and more throughout the rest of 2008."
