“We are pleased to report a second consecutive quarter of improved financial performance underlined by sequential growth in revenue, return to profitability and substantial improvement in cash flow from operations,” said Shabtai Adlersberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of AudioCodes. “Growth in our networking business was driven primarily by higher product sales and services in the areas of Unified Communication and Enterprise Session Border Controllers applications, both representing strategic directions for us. Investments made with our global partners over the past few years continue to contribute in a meaningful way to our return to growth and our leadership in the industry. These investments also provide further strength and support to our expected success in coming years.”

“As we look ahead to 2013, AudioCodes stands well positioned to extend its presence within the multi-billion dollar markets for Unified Communications, Contact Centers and Business Services. We believe that our leadership in the Microsoft Lync voice eco-system, as the only single-source provider for Microsoft partners for end-to-end voice product and services solutions, is a clear competitive advantage within one of the most attractive segments of the communications sector. With the recent launch of our ‘AudioCodes One Voice for Microsoft Lync’ offering, we are simplifying and accelerating voice-enablement of Lync implementations with a complete portfolio of products and services, including, among others, IP Phones, Media Gateways, Enterprise Session Border Controllers (E-SBCs), Survivable Branch Appliances (SBAs) and Session Experience Manager (SEM), as well as complete network management and assessment tools, support and professional services,” concluded Mr. Adlersberg.
