Comments of Management
โThe record booking that we achieved at the end of 2015 has created a record backlog for us as we enter 2016, giving us visibility for financial stability based on multi-year growth,โ commented Mr. Yaron Ravkaie, RADCOMโs CEO. โThrough this important win, which followed a thorough vetting of our MaveriQ by a top-tier operator, we will become the first company in the world to carry out a mega-deployment of an NFV service assurance solution. This has established RADCOM as the clear leader of this exciting emerging market, positioning us ideally to ride the NFV growth wave.โ
Mr. Ravkaie continued, โOur results for 2015 reflect the effort to secure this strategic deal, a focused, successful investment that has positioned us for even greater future achievements. Our strong balance sheet, including a high level of cash, low inventory and no debt, demonstrates our financial solidity, an important element for success in our marketing efforts with top-tier customers.
โIn general, 2016 will be a bridge year during which we expect our revenues to increase to a new level. To take full advantage of our favorable positioning, our strategy is to pursue total customer satisfaction in the current deployment, to secure additional anchor customers through direct and channel efforts, and to invest continuously to widen our technology edge, further enhancing our value proposition for our target customers. We are excited by our prospects and look forward to reporting our progress in the quarters ahead.โ
