Comments of Management

“We are pleased to report a second consecutive quarter of positive momentum as demonstrated by the period’s 40% growth in revenues and 59% reduction in net loss,” commented Mr. Avi Kovarsky, RiT’s President & CEO. “We are benefiting from improving market conditions for both the Enterprise and Carrier sides of our business. In addition, we have recorded first sales and are seeing a high level of interest in the EPV, the new product that we launched in April for the small-to-medium sector. On the cost side, our efficiency program has succeeded in reducing our operating expenses by 19% and our inventory by 10%, resulting in a streamlined platform that will support our return to profitability.”

Mr. Kovarsky continued, “This improvement positions us favorably to achieve future growth targets. Towards that end, we are working on several of initiatives designed to take our business to the next level. For our traditional product lines, we have rolled out a new partner program that will expand our ability to reach out to new customers. In parallel, we are on track with plans to launch our new laser-speed traffic cameras towards the beginning of the fourth quarter.”

Mr. Kovarsky concluded, “The Board of Directors has accepted my decision to step down from my position as RiT’s President and CEO. I am pleased to be able to hand the Company to the competent and experienced hands of Eran Ayzik, who will take over his new position on August 1st, and to Moti Antebi, whom we have appointed to become RiT’s new CFO. I have every confidence that they, working together with the superb RiT team, will succeed in achieving the Company’s full potential, thereby generating significant value for our stakeholders.”

Mr. Sergey Anisimov, RiT’s Chairman of the Board, added, “We would like to thank Avi Kovarsky for his dedicated service to RiT. As CEO, he guided the Company through a challenging period and positioned it for accelerated progress going forward. We wish him well in his future endeavors.”
