In the news release, "Ceragon Networks Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results" issued on 26 Jul 2010 12:12 GMT, by Ceragon Networks Ltd nasdaq:CRNT over PR Newswire, we are advised by a representative of the company that, in the fourth paragraph, the first line should refer to the 'second quarter', rather than the 'first quarter' as originally issued inadvertently. Complete, corrected release follows:

PARAMUS, New Jersey, July 26, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ceragon Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: CRNT), the provider of high-capacity, LTE/4G-ready wireless backhaul networks, today reported results for the second quarter which ended June 30, 2010.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2010 reached an all-time high of $60.9 million, up 44% from $42.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 and up 2% from $59.7 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Net income in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.6 million or $0.07 per basic share and diluted share, including a one-time expense of $1.15 million to acquire technology for further development. Net income in the second quarter of 2009 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter, excluding $852,000 of equity-based compensation expenses and the $1.15 million one-time expense for technology, was $4.6 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2009 was $1.04 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share (please refer to the accompanying financial table for reconciliation of GAAP financial information to non-GAAP).

Gross margin on a GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2010 was 35.3%. Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis was 35.4% of revenues.

Cash and cash investments at the end of the quarter were $94.9 million.

"We had an excellent second quarter with record revenues, higher gross margin, and improved operating margin," said Ira Palti, President and CEO of Ceragon. "Global demand remains very strong. Outside of India, where orders are being delayed pending a security-related process being implemented by the government, our book-to-bill was above one. We expect revenues in the third and fourth quarters to be similar to the second quarter. For the full year, we continue to target revenue growth in the range of 30-35%, with profits growing at a higher rate than revenue."

    Supplemental revenue breakouts:

    Geographical breakdown, first quarter of 2010:

    EMEA:          25%

    North America: 16%

    Asia Pacific:  53%

    Latin America:  6%

Ceragon Networks Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results

Achieves Record Revenues, Higher Gross Margins and Improved Operating Margin

PARAMUS, New Jersey, July 26, 2010 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Ceragon Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: CRNT), the provider of high-capacity, LTE/4G-ready wireless backhaul networks, today reported results for the second quarter which ended June 30, 2010.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2010 reached an all-time high of $60.9 million, up 44% from $42.2 million for the second quarter of 2009 and up 2% from $59.7 million in the first quarter of 2010.

Net income in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.6 million or $0.07 per basic share and diluted share, including a one-time expense of $1.15 million to acquire technology for further development. Net income in the second quarter of 2009 was $0.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the first quarter, excluding $852,000 of equity-based compensation expenses and the $1.15 million one-time expense for technology, was $4.6 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2009 was $1.04 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share (please refer to the accompanying financial table for reconciliation of GAAP financial information to non-GAAP).

Gross margin on a GAAP basis in the second quarter of 2010 was 35.3%. Gross margin on a non-GAAP basis was 35.4% of revenues.

Cash and cash investments at the end of the quarter were $94.9 million.

"We had an excellent second quarter with record revenues, higher gross margin, and improved operating margin," said Ira Palti, President and CEO of Ceragon. "Global demand remains very strong. Outside of India, where orders are being delayed pending a security-related process being implemented by the government, our book-to-bill was above one. We expect revenues in the third and fourth quarters to be similar to the second quarter. For the full year, we continue to target revenue growth in the range of 30-35%, with profits growing at a higher rate than revenue."

    Supplemental revenue breakouts:

    Geographical breakdown, first quarter of 2010:

    EMEA:          25%
