Press Release Source: Riverbed Technology, Inc.
Riverbed Expands Operations in North America Tuesday November 28, 7:00 am ET Opens Offices in Canada to Enable Global and Regional Enterprises to Speed Application Performance and Improve Collaboration
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Riverbed Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVBD - News) announced today the launch of operations in Canada with the opening of offices in Toronto, Ontario. Riverbed's new Canadian office will allow Riverbed® to best meet the needs of distributed organizations throughout Canada as they seek to solve the problems associated with application performance over wide area networks (WANs). ADVERTISEMENT
"Riverbed's first customer was a Canadian company," said Jerry Kennelly, CEO and president of Riverbed. "Riverbed's decision to expand operations in North America is driven by customer and partner demand, as organizations recognize the importance of optimizing WAN performance for a broad range of applications and services, including IT consolidation, backup and disaster recovery, and application acceleration. We look forward to working with our Canadian partners to meet the needs of distributed enterprises."
Riverbed has developed relationships with leading reseller partners across Canada, including British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec. As part of this release, Riverbed is announcing Canadian customers SECOR and Wardrop Engineering, both of which worked with partners to deploy Riverbed's Steelhead® appliances.
SECOR was founded in 1975 and today is the largest independent strategy consulting firm in Canada, serving prestigious clients in North America and Europe. In addition to its Montreal offices, the company has operations in Paris and Toronto. The company is organized into three groups: SECOR Consulting assists top teams of large North American companies with strategic and global expansion concerns; SECOR Europe focuses on top teams of European companies; and SECOR-TAKTIK specializes in mid-sized Quebec companies that must constantly adapt to the changing realities of the market.
SECOR deployed a Microsoft SharePoint Intranet to enable collaboration between its three sites, including the ability to quickly and easily share large PowerPoint and Word documents. However, downloads of typical files of 25-30 MB often took 10-12 minutes to open and file replication was nearly impossible. The company turned to Montreal-based NOVIPRO for a solution. NOVIPRO is a rapidly growing company and registered Riverbed reseller that has, since 1993, successfully implemented IT projects for small, medium and large sized businesses. NOVIPRO has developed a unique approach that capitalizes on the skills of its team to address its clients' challenges in areas that include technological infrastructure design, software solutions, IT recovery, archiving and other IT issues. NOVIPRO recommended that SECOR consider Riverbed's Steelhead appliances to enable collaboration between the company's North American and European sites. Following installation of the Steelhead appliances, the same files that once took 10-12 minutes to download now take 10-12 seconds.
"Riverbed has delivered performance beyond our expectations," said Joanne Couture, Director - Service to Professionals at SECOR. "Our users in Paris are now working as if they were in Montreal. Riverbed has delivered LAN-like quality over our WAN."
In addition to improving application performance, the Steelhead appliances have reduced the amount of traffic traversing the network from 1.34 GB to 291 MB, a 5X decrease, freeing bandwidth and allowing the company to delay a bandwidth upgrade indefinitely.
Wardrop Engineering has also deployed Riverbed's Steelhead appliances. Wardrop is an award-winning international consulting firm providing innovative solutions through integrated multi-disciplined engineering, environmental, and information technology services. The company has a team of more than 850 from which to draw expertise, and was recently named, for the fifth time, to the list of Canada's Top 100 Employers. Wardrop specializes in the forest products, infrastructure, product development, mining and minerals, nuclear, oil and gas, and power sectors.
Wardrop has sites across Canada and in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Teams often work collaboratively, transferring a variety of documents, including very large computer-aided design (CAD) files, across the country. In addition, Wardrop has a centralized Oracle-based financial and project management application, located in its Winnipeg office. With a hybrid network that includes centralized, regional and local IT, the company needed a flexible solution that would allow them to speed both the transfers of files and access to its centralized database, while accommodating the design of its network. Wardrop attempted to overcome its performance issues across the WAN with raw bandwidth; however, performance was still unacceptable.
Working closely with Gibraltar Solutions, a registered Riverbed reseller and value-added solution provider, the company deployed Riverbed's Steelhead appliances as a solution. Gibraltar Solutions optimizes large enterprise IT environments, with compelling value, in the areas of infrastructure consolidation, virtualization solutions, access solutions, application distribution, security assessment/operations, as well as process/project management. To-date, Wardrop has deployed Steelhead appliances at 12 sites across Canada and in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
"Riverbed accommodates the flexible nature of our business where project teams are based in different parts of the country," said Bill Ip, CIO at Wardrop. "In smaller offices, we have been able to reduce the number of email and file data servers. Employees remotely work as if local. Having the Steelhead appliances deployed at all of our sites gives us the flexibility to allow all employees access to all data, regardless of location."
Wardrop has also reduced bandwidth usage by up to 5X, allowing the company to reduce its current expenditure on bandwidth and delay future network upgrades.
"Users are now able to efficiently and quickly get data from other offices," continued Ip. "With the Riverbed-enabled performance, remote users are not even aware that they are accessing files over the WAN. Based on the performance, they assume that they are opening local files."
About Riverbed's Steelhead Appliances
Riverbed's wide-area data services (WDS) solutions enable organizations with more than one office to overcome a host of severe problems, including poor application performance and insufficient bandwidth at remote sites. By speeding the performance of applications between distributed sites, by five to 50 times and in some cases up to 100 times between enterprise datacenters and remote offices, Riverbed's award-winning Steelhead WDS appliances enable companies to consolidate IT, improve backup and replication processes to ensure data integrity, and improve staff productivity and collaboration. Steelhead appliances have been deployed in organizations ranging from the world's largest corporations with offices around the globe to small companies with a couple of sites that are just miles apart.

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation Consolidates IT Infrastructure With Riverbed Steelhead Appliances Thursday February 1, 7:00 am ET Improves Data Security and Reduces Operational Costs and Overhead
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Riverbed Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:RVBD - News), the performance leader in wide-area data services (WDS), today announced that Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has deployed Riverbed's Steelhead® appliances. The company has designed and is deploying a centralized file server environment that supports four offices and over 5,000 users. Riverbed's Steelhead appliances are the core enabling technology for this initiative, which allows Mitsubishi Motors to improve data security and reliability, reduce operational costs and resources, and improve application performance. ADVERTISEMENT
Mitsubishi Motors became an independent company in 1970 when the automobile division was spun off from Mitsubishi Heavy-Industries, producing cars, trucks and buses for over thirty years. In 2003, the company was reborn again as the new Mitsubishi Motors, a manufacturer specialized in passenger cars. Mitsubishi Motors has 10 offices in Japan and 11 sites located outside of the country, including design centers in the United States, Australia and Germany and production centers in Thailand, the Philippines, Australia and the Netherlands.
With this project, Mitsubishi Motors centralized file servers at four sites in Japan and consolidated that infrastructure into their data center. This consolidation eliminates the need for file servers and tape backup in the remote sites, ensuring that data was more secure and significantly reducing costs and operational overhead. In order to move forward with the project, the company needed to ensure that the performance of critical applications did not suffer performance degradation. Riverbed's reseller partner, Netmarks, recommended that the company consider Riverbed's Steelhead appliance as a solution that would enable IT consolidation without affecting user performance.
Mitsubishi Motors selected Riverbed® over the competition because the company's solutions delivered the best performance for the broad set of applications and protocols important to Mitsubishi Motors, including NFS. The company has implemented the Steelhead appliances at four sites in Japan with over 5,000 users, enabling Mitsubishi Motors to eliminate over 50 servers and move critical data into its protected data center. The Steelhead appliances have reduced WAN traffic by over 90%, while delivering LAN-like performance to end-users located at the remote sites.
"Accessing file servers across a WAN was thought to be impossible due to the effects of latency -- regardless of how much bandwidth is available. But with Riverbed's Steelhead appliances, we are now able to consolidate our file servers, while ensuring performance that is nearly equal to that of local area networks," said Yasuhiro Nishikawa, Expert of IT Planning & Control Dept., Corporate Affairs Office, at Mitsubishi Motors Corp. "Installation of Riverbed's Steelhead appliances can substantially reduce operational management costs, and centralized management can enhance security levels.

Secondly, coming out of restriction, Citi is updating their view on Riverbed (NasdaqGM: RVBD) taking their rating to Buy from Hold. Post an impressive March and with a new product cycle at its back, the company's tech advantage is lengthening and momentum continues to build. Future catalysts include Steelhead Mobile, channel expansion, and an increased storage presence.
Riverbed continues on its hyper-growth track while progressing toward its target operating model. While an opex catch-up may result in a margin pause for June, the company is on track to exit 2007 at ~20%+ Op Mgn vs the 20-25% LT target. Citi's prior CQ2 estimates of $43M and $0.07 are now $49M and $0.12. Tgt is raised to $52 from $34.

Riverbed Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:RVBD), the technology and market leader in wide-area data services (WDS), has been ranked 4th in the Rising Star category of the 2007 Deloitte & Touche USA LLP's Technology Fast 50 program for Silicon Valley. Rankings for the Fast 50 Rising Star program are based on percentage revenue growth over three years (2004-2006). Riverbed was ranked number four based on a 3,421 percent revenue growth during this time, as compared to an average revenue growth percentage of 1,885 for Fast 50 Rising Star winners.
The Rising Star award is a special designation for fast-growth companies that have been in business a minimum of three years, but less than five and is part of the Silicon Valley Technology Fast 50 program, which ranks the 50 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, and life sciences companies headquartered in Silicon Valley. This year's Silicon Valley Technology Fast 50 program is co-presented by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP and Silicon Valley Bank, Cooley Godward Kronish LLP, Korn/Ferry International, and Woodruff-Sawyer & Co.
Riverbed's Steelhead(R) products help companies run applications across corporate networks -- from headquarters to the branch office to remote workers, wherever they may be -- up to 100 times faster, making Riverbed(R) a key driver of the shrinking, faster, more connected corporate world. WDS solutions allow organizations to consolidate IT infrastructure, enable higher productivity for remote offices, decrease frustration for end users, dramatically shorten backup and replication time and reduce WAN traffic.
Customers see a payback period of just three to 12 months, consisting of both hard savings and productivity gains. Today, more than 3,000 organizations worldwide have selected Riverbed and deployed the company's Steelhead products at sites ranging from oil rigs in the South China Seas and submarines in the Atlantic to remote offices and headquarters sites in Vladivostok, Osaka, London and New York City.
"The Deloitte Silicon Valley Technology Fast 50 Rising Star companies have shown the strength, vision and tenacity to succeed despite a very challenging technology environment," said Mark Jensen, partner and national director, Venture Capital Services, Deloitte & Touche LLP. "We applaud the successes of Riverbed Technology and acknowledge its place as one of the few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past three years."
"We are honored to be recognized by Deloitte for our strong performance," said Jerry Kennelly, co-founder and CEO, Riverbed Technology. "From 2004 through 2006, we experienced revenue growth of 3,421% and the most successful IPO of any company in 2006. Our success is a reflection of the tremendous value that our industry-leading technology delivers to our customers and the WDS market opportunity that is in front of us.
