Vancouver, BC, Canada — July 28, 2014CounterPath Corporation (OTCBB: COPA), a leading provider of desktop and mobile VoIP software products and solutions, today announced financial and operating results for the third quarter ended January 31, 2008.

Recent financial and operating highlights include:

• Record quarterly revenues of $2.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $1.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 and $2.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2008.

• Acquisition of FirstHand Technologies Inc., an innovator in extending enterprise telephony features to smartphones and dual-mode handheld devices over WiFi and cellular networks. FirstHand’s products are backed by eleven patents either pending or granted. The acquisition allows CounterPath to combine its suite of softphone and server applications with Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) solutions from FirstHand to deliver an integrated communications experience and empower workforces to go mobile.

• Acquisition of BridgePort Networks, Inc., a leading innovator in Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) solutions for service providers. BridgePort’s products, which include the NomadicONE™ Network Convergence Gateway (NCG) and NomadicONE IMS Convergence Server (ICS), are backed by eighteen patents either pending or granted. The addition of carrier-class FMC solutions to its VoIP softphone and enterprise offerings immediately broadens the Company’s market reach.

“The third quarter was a strategic one for CounterPath. Two acquisitions were completed in the quarter to position the Company as a serious player in the move worldwide to Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) services, while at the same time, we maintained our overall revenue growth,” said Greg Pelling, Chief Executive Officer of CounterPath. “There is an increasing demand for innovative FMC solutions providing seamless connectivity between fixed and wireless telecommunications networks. Our extensive client base of world-class service providers and technology vendors require these solutions to deliver high-value services to small and medium enterprises and consumers. In other words, we can now provide a complete end to end solution with our softphone applications running on a personal computer and optimized to work in conjunction with a mobile phone, enabling end users to easily switch between the two devices. We are the only source for SIP softphone solutions which combine voice, text messaging, multimedia, video and presence-based consumer and enterprise applications for virtually any network – fixed or mobile. These acquisitions enable us to leverage our extensive customer base and support our growth plans for fiscal 2009,” concluded Pelling.
