“Our company continues to be the SIP softphone of choice for large telecom service providers and infrastructure manufacturers, as demonstrated by our customer list, and I am personally proud of our team and what we have achieved to date,” stated Mark Bruk, Chief Executive Officer of CounterPath. ”Notwithstanding a significant pipeline of revenue opportunities, our Q3 revenue results were impacted by a product launch delay, a focus of engineering resources on meeting existing customer commitments, deployment delays by existing customers and a lengthened sales cycle, and it is now unlikely that we will meet our previous revenue guidance of $10 million within the fiscal 2007 time frame. We will continue to see increasing software and service revenues from our telecom service provider customers, such as AT&T, British Telecom, Deutsche Telekom, mobilkom austria and Portugal Telecom, as the momentum behind their deployments of our software escalates. In addition, our infrastructure manufacturer customers and partners such as Cisco, Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei will drive revenues and new partner deployment opportunities and we continue to expand on our interoperability with key industry players like Sylantro, Nortel and BroadSoft while establishing key partnerships such as with Intel, Microsoft and Oracle, all of which will serve to grow our business.“
