The judges looked for excellence in design, typography, information graphics, photography, illustration, paper, and printing. Together they reached a consensus on the top 100 annual reports, and then awarded further honors to the best reports in the group. The 10 best CSR entries were selected based on sustainability and design scores.

Design Army, a Washington D.C. based firm, is designing the AR100 + CSR Guide, which will beautifully reproduce the winning reports, in a hardcover format, with full credit information. The AR100 + CSR publication will be released in late summer 2007 to over 15,000 corporate communicators - eagerly looking for talent to produce their upcoming reports
