COVINGTON, LA (October 17, 2005) SCP Pool Corporation (the “Company” or “POOL”) (Nasdaq/NM: POOL) announced today that it is celebrating the 10^th anniversary of its listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market. Manuel Perez de la Mesa, SCP Pool Corporation’s President and CEO, will mark the occasion by presiding over the opening bell on October 20, 2005 at 9:30 am (Eastern). In its ten years as a NASDAQ listed company, POOL has grown its revenues from approximately $161 million in fiscal 1995, to current revenue of approximately $1.5 billion. Market capitalization has increased to its current amount of $1.8 billion, from its initial 1995 value of approximately $43 million. This represents a 45% compounded annual growth rate, or approximately 40 times the 1995 level. The Company now operates 244 service centers which employ over 3,000 people company-wide, compared to 44 service centers with 612 employees in 1995. Additionally, POOL currently pays a dividend with a 1% yield.
