LEVIS, QUEBEC , a leading provider of table game bonusing,
jackpot and loyalty solutions, announced today it has been selected
by the TSX Venture Exchange among the Top 10 venture companies in
the technology industry sector for 2008. The ranking was officially
announced yesterday by the TSX Venture Exchange.
"Receiving this distinction of merit for a second year in a row
by the TSX Venture is an honour," stated Earle G. Hall, President
& CEO. "At DEQ we strive for excellence in all facets of our
work and this recognition is very motivating for the entire team.
2008 has been the best year in the history and with only half the
year over, the company has achieved milestones and recognitions
such as Nevada certification and the USA Top 20 Innovation Award
for Innovative Gaming Technology for our G3(TM) System. This award
simply completes the recognition spectrum of industry, product and
stock market and is a clear indication that we are on the right
track."
The TSX Venture 50 are the top 10 companies in each of five
major industry sectors - mining, oil & gas, technology &
life sciences, and diversified industries- based on a ranking
formula with equal weighting given to one-year revenue (last
reported 12 months), return on investment, market cap growth and
trading volume. All data was as of December 31, 2007.
The TSX Venture 50 project was initiated to provide awareness to
the Canadian investment community on the quality companies that are
listed on the Exchange and that are using public venture capital to
grow their companies. The division of the top 50 companies in
industry sectors shows the diversity of the companies listed on the
TSX Venture Exchange and recognizes the company growth in their own
industry sector. The complete list of the 50 best venture companies
is published in today's Globe and Mail issue as well as on the TSX
Venture Exchange website at www.tsx.com.
