"We are pleased with our results for the third fiscal quarter,
particularly in light of the on-going strain in the global economy. Favorable
foreign currency movements increased third quarter revenue and EPS relative to
our expectations for the quarter. Even without currency benefits, our results
were at or above the mid-point of our guidance ranges. Additionally, backlog
remained stable and we continued to meet our profit and cash flow objectives,
all of which are encouraging," said Dov Baharav, chief executive officer of
Baharav continued, "Demand conditions, however, remain weak, particularly for large transformational projects, as our customers manage their budgets tightly. As a result, we anticipate that our revenue may continue to trend down sequentially, albeit at a moderating pace, until we see demand improve. This view is reflected in our fourth fiscal quarter guidance, and we believe this trend could persist into early fiscal 2010."
Baharav concluded, "While the pace of new deal activity is still slow, we signed important deals in the third quarter. We saw relative strength in our cable, managed services and Interactive domains, highlighted by several key wins."
For J:COM, Japan's largest multiple system and channel operator,
Amdocs is fully modernizing the customer's billing system and replacing a competitor's CRM system, all based on the CES 7.5 product platform.
Amdocs signed a six-year managed services contract with Elisa, a Finnish service provider, to consolidate eight billing systems across Elisa's wireless, wireline, Internet and cable TV lines of business onto the Amdocs Billing platform, as well as, deploy Amdocs Enterprise Product Catalog 7.5 to centralize information from five different existing catalogs. The new contract builds on an existing relationship with the customer, whereAmdocs billing, ordering and CRM systems were previously deployed to support Elisa's wireless operations.Within Interactive,
Amdocs signed several contracts during the third quarter, including two within the emerging markets. In Latin America,Amdocs signed a key contract with a large service provider to support its wireless portal development, digital commerce and personalization across all of its affiliates. Importantly, the deal included products based on both theQPass and ChangingWorlds technologies, demonstrating early synergies within our Interactive portfolio.Amdocs also signed two additional ChangingWorlds contracts, both in theAsia-Pacific region.
