Financial Services

Financial services companies used to leave huge, expensive paper trails when they did their
business. With the Web, it's becoming more automated, faster and cheaper. Many companies
are finding success on the Web, from old-line companies like Citigroup to newer players like
CheckFree. -- Ben Berentson

CheckFree (CKFR)

www.checkfree.com

Chief Executive Officer: Peter J. Knight

Chief Financial Officer: David E. Mangum

Chief Technology Officer: Ravi Ganesan

Clients: 600 banking, brokerage and
financial sites, including Yahoo, Wells Fargo, Fidelity.

Description: If you pay bills online, you're probably paying them through
CheckFree. The company processed 313 million payments in 2002, a 36%
increase over 2001. The number of people subscribing to CheckFree-powered
billpaying services also leapt from 5 million to 6.6 million. About 265 billers, like
BankOne and JCPenney, present their bills using CheckFree. CheckFree has a
huge lead on the competition and benefits from its established name. But
Metavante, which just bought Spectrum, a billpaying joint-venture of banks like
JP Morgan and Wells Fargo, is expected to give CheckFree competition down
the road. Fiscal year 2002 revenues were $493.2 million, a 14% growth from
2001. The company turned a $14.8 million loss in 2001 into a $17.1 million profit
for 2002.
