Abstract
"2008 represented a pivotal year for DDS Wireless. We returned the company to profitability in the last quarter of 2008 and delivered revenue growth of 63% for the year, driven in large part by the strategic reorganization of the Company into four market focused business units earlier in the year and the integration of Washington-based StrataGen Systems Inc. and Finland-based Mobisoft Oy acquired in late in 2007," said Vari Ghai, CEO of DDS Wireless. "While the acquisitions completed in 2007 were a significant driver of our growth in 2008, we saw positive growth across all of our businesses. Furthermore, we extended our reach into new markets and verticals and capitalized on the commercial synergies of the acquisitions by leveraging the complementary products and distribution channels of the combined companies. We will continue to exploit these opportunities to drive further growth and expansion into new vertical and geographic markets."
