We design, develop and market telecommunications equipment for use in enhancing voice quality and canceling echo in voice calls over wireline, wireless and internet protocol (IP) telecommunications networks. Our products monitor and enhance voice quality and provide transcoding in the delivery of voice services. Since entering the voice processing market, we have continued to refine our echo cancellation products to meet the needs of the ever-changing telecommunications marketplace. Our TDM-based product introductions have leveraged the processing capacity of our newer hardware platforms to offer not only echo cancellation but also enhanced Voice Quality Assurance ("VQA") features including noise reduction, acoustic echo cancellation, voice level control and noise compensation through enhanced voice intelligibility. We have also introduced products to support carriers that are deploying voice over internet protocol, or "VoIP," technologies which offer all the voice capabilities of our TDM-based products along with codec transcoding to meet the new challenges faced by carriers deploying VoIP technologies. Most recently we announced our development efforts on our new toktok and mStage products, which further leverage off our expertise in voice technology enabling on-demand, voice-driven, "mid-call accessible" applications and services to be delivered to customers on wireless and wireline voice networks. This offering is being designed to enable phone subscribers to "use their voice as well as their thumbs" to interact with web applications/services like social networking and instant messaging ("IM") on demand, even "on-the fly" during a telephone call.
Since becoming a public company in June 1999, our financial success has been primarily predicated on the macroeconomic environment of U.S. wireline and, more recently, wireless carriers as well as our success in selling to the larger carriers. Over the years since becoming public, we have experienced ebbs and flows in the level of demand from these carriers due to their level of network expansion, adoption of new technologies in their networks and the impacts of merger and other consolidation in the industry. Of late, the downturn in business volume we have experienced seems to have been driven by three main factors: technology transitions; budgetary constraints; and the global economic crisis.
The technology transition has impacted us on two fronts. First and foremost, carriers have been extremely cautious to invest in legacy second generation ("2G") technology, historically our primary source of revenue, for fear of stranding some or all of their investments by moving to the newer VoIP-based third generation technology ("3G"). The hesitancy to invest in 2G equipment has resulted in protracted purchase cycles and smaller deployments to mitigate their perceived risks, while still addressing needed improvements in voice quality in their 2G networks. The second impact has been felt on the 3G investment, which has been far slower to develop than was first predicted by industry experts. Instead of wholesale deployment of VoIP technologies we have experienced a much more cautious entrance into this technology by many of the carriers with which we have historically done business, with the key by-product being that they are buying much smaller systems than would have been expected from their historical buying pattern and in some cases even deciding to limit their
