JUNCTION SOLUTIONS ANNOUNCES RAPID REVENUE GROWTH IN 2006

Junction Solutions Closes the Year with 100% Increase in Revenue

Lincolnshire, IL – January 11, 2007 - Junction Solutions, the largest provider of vertical industry focused enterprise software and services based on the Microsoft platform, today announced its end of quarter for the close of 2006. Junction Solutions added many significant new customers for both its JunctionMCR and JunctionF/B vertical industry products in the fourth quarter including Miles Kimball, Musco Olive, Crutchfield and Tire Factory.  Junction Solutions closed the year with revenue up 100% from 2005, and recently announced the release of two major releases of its Multi-Channel Retail and Food & Beverage products based on the Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP platform. 

“With JunctionMCR, we will have a much greater level of functionality and scalability across the enterprise,” says Stan Krangel President at Miles Kimball Company. “We will now be able to serve customers better, prepare for future growth, and at the same time improve the bottom line through JunctionMCR’s control and integration of processes, systems and channels.”

Successful fourth quarter live customer implementations of JunctionMCR and JunctionF/B include: Arc One, Mrs. Fields Gifts, H-E-B and Redcat Motors.

 “We are extremely pleased with the progress of the rollout of Junction Solutions’ Food & Beverage solution,” said Linda Espino, Microsoft Dynamics AX Project Business Leader at H-E-B. “Our team’s effort combined with Junction’s consulting organization has provided results that are nothing short of outstanding.”

Brian Carpizo, CEO of Junction Solutions, said, “Junction’s progress in the marketplace in 2006 was notable on many fronts.  We developed two major product releases, opened up two international offices in Mexico and the UK, and closed almost 20 new customers.  In 2007 we plan to double in size once again while we accelerate the development of new and innovative software products and features for the retail and food industries.  Piggybacking off of newly released Microsoft core technologies such as Windows Vista, .NET 3.0, and Dynamics AX 4.0, we continue to gain ground against our goal to lead the global mid-market for enterprise software in our industries.” 

Junction Solutions continues to expand its customer base by delivering industry-specific features to both the Multi-Channel Retail and Food & Beverage industries. JunctionMCR addresses the unique challenges of measuring marketing effectiveness, improving customer service and streamlining order fulfillment, while providing control and integration of processes, systems and channels. JunctionF/B extends Microsoft Dynamics AX’s full-featured ERP solution to handle food-specific needs such as recipes, co-products, disassembly operations, lot costing, lot traceability, commodity pricing, variable grades and quality management.
