American Predator ranked 26 th on the list, reporting a 103% revenue growth from 2002 through 2004.

American Predator credits its rapid revenue growth and increasing foothold in the embedded computing market to their "value-driven" business model.

"Receiving this recognition is certainly very rewarding and a great motivation to continue providing our customers with a business model that promotes flexibility and ease of business relations,"

"Over the past thirteen years, American Predator has enjoyed remarkable levels of growth. Instrumental to our success has been strong relationships with customers and vendors as well as employee loyalty. In today's business environment, the most successful companies understand the critical elements of the "post dot-com bust" business model: a combination of vision, planning, competence and commitment. A new era has emerged, no leadership by one, but the leadership of all will differentiate businesses from now on. We will continue to empower our customers, vendors and employees."
