| For Immediate Release Reilly named to Who’s Who in Business Publishing  | TUSCALOOSA, ALA. (December 2006) – Media Business, the magazine for business publishing executives, named F. Michael Reilly, president and CEO of Randall-Reilly Publishing, to its annual Who’s Who in Business Publishing list last month. Reilly, who just last year engineered a management buyout of the 73-year-old family-owned company, was recognized as “a vocal advocate of the need for b-to-b media companies to capitalize on rich data,” according to the article in the November issue of Media Business. Under Reilly’s leadership, the company’s Equipment Data Associates Division, which collects information on liens placed on heavy equipment, has become an integral source of rich data for Randall-Reilly publications and customers. In November 2005, Reilly partnered with Wachovia Capital Partners to purchase Randall Publishing. In 2006, the company will close out a record year, through top line growth of existing properties, organic start-ups and acquisitions.
Reilly has served on the Board of Directors for the YMCA, Boys & Girls Club, United Way, West Alabama Chamber of Commerce and AmSouth Bank. He currently sits on the Board of American Business Media, the association for business-to-business information providers.
