Commenting on the results, President and CEO, Amos Kohn, stated: "Although we experienced a reduction in our results for the first quarter, domestic revenues remains fairly strong. Our European operations experienced a disappointment in the slowdown of shipments primarily due to the credit crisis in the Euro-zone and the accompanying economic environment. We generated revenues primarily from the sale of modified standard products for broadband applications and customized product solutions for streaming media and medical applications. We also developed and launched a power rectifier system to international naval fleets. These programs continue to add diversity to our product mix and customer base. We continue executing our strategy of developing full custom power solutions and simultaneously enhancing our standard product offering with innovative, high density switchers at ever increasing power levels. This focus on solution driven applications are well received by our major vertical markets including telecom, medical, military and the industrial segments. "
