RADWARE LTD. ANNOUNCES Q108 RESULTS


* Quarterly revenues of $22.2 million

** GAAP loss per share $0.42, Non-GAAP loss per share $0.32


TEL AVIV, ISRAEL.; April 28, 2008 — Radware (NASDAQ: RDWR), the leading provider of integrated application delivery solutions for business-smart networking, today reported quarterly revenues of $22.2 million for the first quarter of 2008. This represents an increase of 12% compared with revenues of $19.7 million for the first quarter of 2007. Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2007 were $24.4 million.


Revenues of $22.2M were just below the company’s guidance for the quarter, which ranged between $23M and $24.5M. While the shipments for the quarter were within company’s expectations, certain decisions made by the company with respect to revenue recognition after the end of the quarter caused our recorded revenues to fall slightly below expectations.


Net loss on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2008 was $8.3 million or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $3.6 million or $0.18 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2007 and to a net loss of $1.8 million or $0.09 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2007.


For comparative purposes, net loss for the first quarter of 2008, excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets and acquisition related expenses, was $6.3 million or $0.32 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2007 and to a net loss of $0.1 million or break-even diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2007.


During the first quarter, the devaluation of the US dollar against the Israeli Shekel, the Euro, the Australian dollar and Asian currencies resulted in an increase in operating expenses of $1 million. In addition, certain one time expenses were realized in the first quarter.


At the end of the first quarter the company’s overall cash position, including cash, short-term and long-term bank deposits and marketable securities increased by $0.8 million, compared to the end of the fourth quarter of 2007, increasing to an amount of $155.7 million.  


“During the past few months, we have been focused on developing and implementing strategic and tactical plans to ensure that our business remains healthy and productive,” said Roy Zisapel, President & CEO of Radware. “We believe that by implementing such plans coupled with our new product introductions of OnDemand Switches and SIP Director we will be able to accelerate growth and return to profitability.”


Management’s expectation is to reach an annual growth rate in the mid to high teens and return to operating profitability by the fourth quarter of 2008.
