Commenting on the results, Shaike Orbach, President and CEO, said, “We are very proud of our results for the quarter, especially the exceptional 24.8% net margin, which demonstrates once again the robustness of our business model. The strong sales that we have achieved throughout the year have enabled us to grow our year-to-date revenues by 74% while nearly tripling our net income for the period.

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Indent Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"

“This growth is tracking the continued strong development of our target markets — especially the WAN Optimization, Security and Network Appliances segments — which continue to increase the need for our multi-port connectivity and BYPASS products and to be an important growth engine for our company. Having secured two Design Wins during the third quarter and a new WAN Optimization Design Win just a week ago, we have now accumulated a total of 50 Design Wins and established an expanded footprint in our most important target markets.”

Mr. Orbach continued, “To benefit fully from our favorable positioning, we continue to develop new, innovative solutions in line with market needs, another step in our plan for becoming a ‘one-stop shop’ for best-in-breed appliance connectivity solutions. By keeping an ‘ear to the ground,’ we are able to identify unmet needs and to continuously expand our addressable markets, fueling sustainable future growth. We are working to take advantage of our favorable positioning in fast-growing markets and are optimistic regarding our ability to deliver strong growth over the long term.”
