"2005 was yet another year of strong growth for Vendio as we introduced new services into new markets, as well as improved our existing services to help our merchant base continue to increase their sales and profits," said Rodrigo Sales, CEO of Vendio. "We are also proud to have introduced Dealio, a smart, user-friendly utility that accompanies consumers while they shop online and presents them with lower cost alternatives in a convenient, intuitive and unobtrusive manner."

Vendio's financial health is the result of launching innovative new services such as Dealio™, the continued improvement of existing services, and a consistent rise in new customers and subscriptions. Despite expanding its development capacity and scaling up its investment in Dealio, Vendio saw further significant increases in GAAP net income, EBITDA and Cash in 2005. The company has achieved 17 consecutive quarters of positive EBITDA and 13 quarters of GAAP profitability since 2002.

Vendio heavily invested its profits in the development, marketing, and distribution of Dealio, as well as in new sales management services designed to meet the operational and merchandising needs of its broad merchant base. The new services for 2005 that contributed to Vendio's strong financial growth include:
