DICOM Group Announces Shareholder Decision to Adopt Kofax as New Global Name

  
    
  
  
    
      DICOM Group plc (LSE:DCM), a global leader of Intelligent Capture 
      & Exchange solutions, today announced that it will change its name and 
      adopt the Kofax® brand name worldwide across 
      all of its subsidiaries. The decision was reached following the 
      Extraordinary General Meeting that was held today.
    
    
      Trading of the company’s shares on the London 
      Stock Exchange under the name Kofax plc and with the new ticker symbol “KFX” 
      will commence as soon as possible. For investor relations information, 
      please continue to reference: http://www.investor.dicomgroup.com 
      until further notice. The ISIN number for the company’s 
      shares will remain unchanged as well.
    
    
      “The decision to unify our corporate brand 
      under Kofax supports our continued effort to eliminate confusion between 
      the disparate brands that have been associated with our company as a 
      result of growth and acquisitions,” said 
      Reynolds C. Bish, chief executive officer. “Kofax 
      has a strong reputation for quality and innovation among our customers, 
      partners and the industry-at-large, and we are committed to providing 
      solutions that automate document-driven business processes in a more 
      accurate, timely and cost-effective manner.”
    
    
      The company’s decision to unify its corporate 
      brand supports an earlier announcement in April 2007 when it unveiled a 
      simplified product branding architecture to unify its diverse product 
      portfolio under Kofax Intelligent Capture & Exchange. Together, these 
      initiatives will help to strengthen Kofax’s 
      existing and new strategic relationships – 
      more than 1,200 Kofax Certified Solution Providers (CSPs) and 10,000 
      customers worldwide – underscoring its 
      leadership and 20-year track record of success in the software capture 
      market.
    
    
      “We think the rebrand makes good sense: the 
      company has tremendous brand equity in the Kofax name," said Melissa 
      Webster, Program VP at IDC. “The rollout of 
      Kofax Intelligent Capture & Exchange last year has further enhanced 
      Kofax's position in the rapidly growing capture and image management 
      segment of the content management market.”
    
    
      During the next several months, Kofax will work on gradually updating 
      all marketing, sales and product information to reflect the new unified 
      corporate brand. The separate Kofax and DICOM Web sites will remain in 
      the interim to ensure that partners, customers and shareholders have 
      immediate access to all necessary resources.
