Record Quarter Follows Banner Second Quarter and Stems From Significant New Customer Wins

ATLANTA, GA – November 20, 2003 – Covast, provider of the recommended electronic data interchange (EDI) solution for Microsoft BizTalk Server, announced today that in Q3 the company increased revenues over a phenomenal Q2 of this year by yet another 17% and topped third quarter 2002 revenues by 183%.

-- Abbott Systems -- U.S. Steel
-- MGA Entertainment -- Serviport (Spain)
-- Tellabs -- Berri (Australia)
-- Movado -- Moypark (United Kingdom)

“We were confident that after joining Microsoft’s Partner Program we would see a rapid increase in new customer acquisition both for Covast and for Microsoft BizTalk Server,” said Daan Scheer, founder and CEO, Covast. “The success of this quarter can be directly attributed to Covast being the recommended EDI solution for Microsoft BizTalk Server.”
