Filed under: Google (GOOG), Adobe Systems (ADBE), Red Hat Inc (RHT), salesforce.com inc (CRM) Last week Forbes released its annual list of the fastest growing tech stocks, and it shouldn't be much of a surprise that Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) topped the list, with nearly $15 billion in sales, representing five-year sales growth of 155%, and 30% EPS growth. To make the list, companies had to have significant sales growth over the past year and five years, as well as a good earnings forecast for the next three to five years. Companies with significant legal problems or corporate governance issues were excluded.

Google tops Forbes list of fastest growing tech stocks
http://www.inmoneytoday.com/2008/01/28/google-tops-forbes-li...Google tops Forbes list of fastest growing tech stocks Posted by: in Stocks Money News Filed under: Google (GOOG), Adobe Systems (ADBE), Red Hat Inc (RHT), salesforce.com inc (CRM) Last week Forbes released its annual list of the fastest growing tech stocks, and it shouldn’t be much of a surprise that Google Inc.

To make the list, companies had to have significant sales growth over the past year and five years, as well as a good earnings forecast for the next three to five years. Companies with significant legal problems or corporate governance issues were excluded. Rounding out the top five were Salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM), Ceradyne Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDN), Euronet Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: EEFT), and FalconStor Software Inc. (NASDAQ: FALC). Some other familiar names that made the list this year include Red Hat Inc. (NYSE: RHT), L-3 Communications (NYSE: LLL), Adobe Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: ADBE), and Cognizant Technology Solutions (NASDAQ: CTSH). Cognizant has been on Forbes list since its inauguration six years ago. For the full list, see the Forbes article. Also of interest was the Forbes Fast 15, companies that didn’t make the list mentioned above, but which Forbes thought were worth keeping an eye on for their potential. Engineering software maker Ansys Inc. (NASDAQ: ANSS), semiconductor maker Atheros Communications Inc. (NASDAQ: ATHR), Brubaker BioSciences Corp. (NASDAQ: BRKR), and scoreboard maker Daktronics Inc. (NASDAQ: DAKT) top that list. For the full list, see the Forbes article. So if, like Aaron Katsman, Georges Yared, and Jim Cramer, you are bullish on tech stocks, then there’s plenty on the Forbes lists worth taking a look at. Permalink | Email this
