RELIV INTERNATIONAL EARNS SPOT ON BUSINESSWEEK’S ‘HOT GROWTH COMPANIES’ LIST FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT YEAR
CHESTERFIELD, Mo., May 29, 2007 - Relìv International, Inc. earned a spot on Relìv ranked No. 47 this year, up a spot from No. 48 on the 2006 list. Only two other personal products companies made the list this year. Companies with annual revenues of $50 million to $1.5 billion are eligible for the list. “We’re proud to have made this list of hot growth companies to watch once again, and we’re pleased to be in the same league as other great small companies,” said Robert L. Montgomery, chairman, chief executive officer and president of Relìv. “We attribute our success to our excellent nutritional products, the dedication of our outstanding employees and the passion and loyalty of our distributors.” To identify Hot Growth companies, BusinessWeek identifies public companies with revenues of $50 million to $1.5 billion a year. It ranks businesses by three-year sales and earnings growth as well as return on capital. Companies must have a market cap of $25 million or more and a stock price of at least $5. Profit or stock price shortfalls, or news that puts prospects in doubt, may knock a company off the list.
