BALTIMORE, June 9, 2006 -- Warschawski, a full-service public relations, marketing and branding agency, announced today that it won a Silver Anvil Award for its work with Under Armour in the category of Reputation/Brand Management. The Silver Anvil Awards are sponsored by the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA). According to PRSA, the Silver Anvil Awards are considered to be "the icon of best public relations practices" and its winners "must meet the highest standards of performance in the profession."

"Receiving a Silver Anvil Award in one of the most significant categories is truly an honor," commented Amy Christopher, senior vice president at Warschawski. "Being recognized for our work with Under Armour in leading the company to one of the most successful IPOs of the year, underscores Warschawski's leadership position in the industry. Warschawski has built its solid reputation by creating strategic branding campaigns that are designed to grow our clients' bottom line."

Highlights of Warschawski's award winning campaign for Under Armour include a strategic branding campaign designed to build the company's brand into a powerful leader in the sports apparel market and business community -- ultimately to position the company for a successful initial public offering. Last year, the company achieved the most successful IPO debut for an American company in the past five years (through Q4 '05).

Finalists were recognized for their work at an awards ceremony last night in New York City. A full listing of all winners can be viewed at http://www.prsa.org/_Awards/silver/winners2006.asp. The Silver Anvil, established in 1946, is awarded to organizations that have successfully addressed a contemporary issue with exemplary professional skill, creativity and resourcefulness.
