- Delivers revenue of $4.3 million and record deferred revenue of $1.3 million
- Reaffirms guidance of annual fiscal 2008 revenue growth of 20% – 25%
Fremont, CA – Jan. 23, 2008 – AltiGen Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATGN), a leading provider of VoIP business phone systems and Unified Communications solutions for small-to-medium businesses (SMBs), including companies with multiple distributed locations, branch offices and call centers, reported its financial results for the fiscal 2008 first quarter ended December 31, 2007.Gilbert Hu, AltiGen’s CEO, said, “During the quarter, we made headway implementing our growth plan. While we posted quarterly revenue of $4.3 million, compared to $4.4 million reported for the same quarter last year, due to successful efforts to initiate our new software assurance program, we closed the quarter with record deferred revenue of $1.3 million, up from $565,000 at Sept. 30, 2007. Our software assurance program establishes a new recurring revenue stream while strengthening our customer relationships and creating additional sell-in opportunities. We continue to have a significant opportunity to upgrade our entire customer base.”Jeremiah Fleming, AltiGen’s president and COO, stated, “We are broadening our distribution channel and increasing our exposure to resellers. In December, we initiated our training kick-off with Jenne Distributors, Inc., and due to the demand, we have already doubled our training course capacity. Additionally, we are extending our relationships with our existing distributors. One of our long-term distributors has moved from a support role to a proactive sales role and is conducting reseller recruiting and user demand generation activities. Finally, as planned, we are expanding internationally and signed a new distribution agreement with Techland Group in the United Kingdom.”“In addition, in January, we launched a new unit, AltiGen Communications Financing (ACF), to provide our customers one point of contact to deliver a total solution – equipment services and financing in one package under the AltiGen brand. Our goal is to increase long-term revenue streams by providing customers an easy financing option.”
“In fiscal 2007, we invested in sales and marketing to drive growth, and in late February we will showcase new marketing programs and product enhancements at our Partners Conference in Orlando. A major focus for the conference will be further educating our partners on the productivity and cost benefits of a Unified Communications solution specifically designed for small-to-medium and multi-location businesses.”
Financial Results
Revenue for the fiscal 2008 first quarter was $4.3 million, compared to $4.4 million a year ago and $5.2 million in the previous quarter. Gross margins were stable at 56.5 percent, compared to 56.4 percent last quarter and grew from 54.0 percent a year ago. Operating expenses, including the increased investment in sales and marketing, totaled $3.5 million, compared to $2.6 million in the year ago quarter. Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was $971,000, or $0.06 per share, including stock based compensation expense of $229,000. This compares to net loss of $94,000, or $0.01 per share, including stock based compensation expense of $151,000 in the same quarter last year, and a net loss of $144,000, or $0.01 per share, including stock based compensation expense of $186,000 in the previous quarter.
Phil McDermott, AltiGen’s CFO, said, “Our push to drive larger systems revenue contribution continues as sales of larger systems grew to 22 percent of total systems shipped versus 19 percent last quarter. Consequently, we delivered a slightly higher gross margin of 56.5 percent and continue to have a strong balance sheet, ending the quarter with $10.1 million in cash and short-term investments with no long-term debt.”
Stock Repurchase Program
In November 2007, the board authorized a repurchase program of up to $2.0 million of shares of AltiGen’s common stock. Since inception of the program through December 31, 2007, AltiGen repurchased 109,378 shares for approximately $174,000. The program is approved through November 2008.
Outlook
The company has reaffirmed its fiscal 2008 guidance of 20 to 25 percent revenue growth compared to fiscal year 2007. Fleming concluded, “Even though buyer decision cycles have slowed, we continue to drive lead generation and execute on our new software assurance program. Additionally, we have just scratched the surface on our customer upgrade campaign launched this quarter, which represents a significant long term revenue opportunity.”
Earnings Conference Call
AltiGen will conduct a conference call with investment professionals at 2:00 PM Pacific Time (5:00 PM Eastern Time) today, January 23, 2008 to discuss AltiGen’s results of operations for the first quarter.

Severity: High
15 January, 2008
Summary:
- This vulnerability affects: Quicktime 7.3.1.70 for Mac and PC (and possibly earlier versions)
- How an attacker exploits it: By enticing your users to download and play a malicious movie or image in Quicktime
- Impact: Attacker executes code on your user’s computer, potentially gaining complete control of it
- What to do: If you allow Quicktime (or iTunes), upgrade to 7.4. Otherwise, remove these applications from your company’s computers
Exposure:
Today, Apple released an alert fixing four vulnerabilities in their popular media player application, Quicktime. (Current versions of iTunes also ship with Quicktime; if your users have iTunes, they most likely have Quicktime.) These applications run on Windows and Macintosh computers, and both platforms are susceptible to exploitation of these security flaws. Apple’s alert specifies Vista and XP SP2 as the vulnerable versions of Windows.
The vulnerabilities relate to different processes in Quicktime (for example, how it opens a picture file, how it displays movie files, how it handles Macintosh Resource records, and so on), but the flaws share a similar result if successfully exploited. If an attacker can get one of your users to open a maliciously crafted movie or image file, he could trigger any of these flaws to execute code on your user’s computer, with the same privileges and permissions your user has. If your users have local administrative privileges, the attacker could gain complete control of their machines.
Last week, we reported a zero day Quicktime vulnerability involving RTSP streams. We have tested the Proof-of-Concept (PoC) exploit for that vulnerability against the Quicktime update Apple released today; unfortunately, this update does not fix that previously reported issue. Whether or not you install today’s Quicktime update, you should still follow the workarounds described in our previous alert to protect yourself from the zero day RTSP Quicktime flaw.
Solution Path:
Apple has released Quicktime version 7.4 (or iTunes 7.6) to correct these flaws. If you allow (or suspect that your users have installed) Quicktime or iTunes in your network, we recommend that users either remove the applications or install version 7.4.
The latest versions of Quicktime and iTunes for Windows ship with Apple Software Update. Apple Software Update automatically detects updates such as this one for Quicktime, then informs you, so that you can install it as soon as possible. If you choose to allow Quicktime or iTunes in your network, we recommend you set Apple Software Update to check for new updates daily and allow it to assist you in keeping your Apple software current.
Note: By default, Apple ships Quicktime combined with iTunes. If you do not want iTunes, download the standalone version of Quicktime.
For All Users:
These attacks rely on one of your users downloading and opening any of several different Quicktime movie or image file types. Many of these multimedia formats have legitimate business uses and should not be blocked in their entirety at your firewall. Unless you want to block all the media types that Quicktime supports, you should insist that users either remove Quicktime and iTunes, or install Apple’s Quicktime update as soon as possible.
Status:
Apple released Quicktime 7.4, which fixes this issue.

Gearing Up for the “10″ Launch
At the end of this month, WatchGuard® will launch the new Fireware® and Fireware Pro 10 appliance software for the Firebox® X. Get ready for a host of new features and significant benefits your customers will appreciate, guaranteeing the Firebox X an even more competitive market position. Here’s a quick look at the 10 most important changes in “10″:
|
|

|
Integrated SSL VPN
Secure remote access via an SSL VPN thin client
- SSL VPN provides an outstanding combination of stronger security, greater ease of use, and near-universal access compared to other VPN protocols
- SSL VPN is fully integrated on the Firebox, meaning less hardware to manage and more sophisticated networking for your customer’s dollar
Single sign-on
Transparent Firebox Authentication via Active Directory
- Integration with directory service streamlines authentication, saving time and eliminating hassles
- Administrators maintain tight security without sacrificing a seamless web surfing experience
VoIP and Video conferencing support
One of the most-requested new features
- VoIP and video conferencing solutions work seamlessly with the Firebox
- Supports standards-based SIP and H.323 voice and video calls
New virus outbreak detection in spamBlocker
Adds another powerful layer of malware protection for the network
- Uses Commtouch® RPD™ technology to identify and block email-borne viruses – with near 100% accuracy rating
- Supplements desktop AV for maximum protection against malware
- Eliminates the need for time-intensive malware clean-up, thereby lowering total cost of ownership
Enhanced IPS signature set and engine
Technology behind a Gateway AV/IPS subscription gets faster and stronger
- The best IPS throughput in the industry, based on price-versus-performance, gets even better
- With a proven commercial signature set that is designed for maximum efficiency
- Includes new SCADA signatures to protect industrial devices
|

|
HTTPS in WebBlocker, and 54 category support
More specific surfing restrictions increase productivity and protection
- Administrators gain even more granular control as web filtering categories increase from 44 to 54
- URL-based filtering of https traffic stops users from slipping through backdoors for off-limits web surfing
SNMPv3 support
Secures device communications with fallback to SNMPv2
- Use popular SNMP-based third-party management solutions to monitor Firebox appliances
- Fallback to SNMPv2 allows compatibility with the highest number of systems
- Key capability for federal customers and organizations requiring additional security measures
New reporting
Faster and more flexible, with a great new look and feel
- New SQL-based reporting
- Improved performance and scalability
Integration with LiveSecurity®
Smoother initial setup experience
- With 10, it is easier and faster than ever to set up a new WatchGuard appliance. Companies spend less time managing devices, more time growing their business
- New alerting function keeps the administrator up to date on the latest security alerts and WatchGuard product releases
Expanded quarantine for AV
Email caught by AV engine can be quarantined for later administrator review
- Allows safe cleaning of files
- Administrator can see what email is infected
- Email users don’t lose mission-critical attachments that may be infected
Note: Some competitors offer either spam or virus quarantine. WatchGuard is the only UTM solution offering both! Fireware 10 is currently scheduled to launch Monday, January 28, 2008. While we prepare to send additional updates, contact your territory sales manager for sales training dates.
