Rick Luk, Chief Executive Officer of Jingwei International commented, "We are encouraged with our improvement in revenue and earnings this quarter compared to last year. The strategic agreement with Shenzhen Newway Digital S&T Co., Ltd. in 2009 has helped the Group expand its offering into 3G related value-added services ("VAS"). In the quarter, the Group successfully opened a call center in Jiangsu Province. This serves as an outsourced 'e-Contact' center with integrated telemarketing and customer care capabilities to support the telecom operators. In software services, we continue to see strong demand in the telecom sector as operators are expanding their deployment of internet protocol TV ("IPTV") and digital TV ("DTV") network nationwide. Moreover, the Company has developed and deployed a pilot 'APP Store' application in the province of Sichuan for a major telecom operator for trial in March; and expects to launch a second system in Shanghai in the second half of 2010."
BUSINESS OUTLOOK
The Company confirmed its previous guidance that for fiscal 2010, it is forecasting to achieve total revenue of between $37.5 million and $42.0 million, net income of between $7.3 million and $8.2 million, and earnings per basic share of between $0.43 and $0.48. This guidance assumes an effective tax rate of 20%. The range of anticipated revenues takes into account both organic growth and the possibility of acquisition related growth within the context of current economic conditions
