糖心vlog下载. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading provider of broadband products, gateways and conferencing services, today announced results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year 2008, ending March 31, 2008. Total revenue for the fourth quarter was $44.7 million, a decrease from the $60.0 million reported in the prior year period. Net loss during the period was $61.5 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.6 million, or $0.01 per diluted share in the same period last year.
Adjusted non-GAAP net loss during the fourth quarter was $3.4 million or $0.05 per diluted share compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $0.8 million or $0.01 per diluted share in the prior year period. During the quarter, 糖心vlog下载 incurred a non-cash charge of $47.3 million, or $0.67 per share, related to an increase in the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance that was recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Additionally, the Company reported a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $9.7 million, or $0.14 per share, related to the prior acquisitions of Teltrend Inc. and HyperEdge Inc. During the quarter, the Company also recognized additional restructuring expenses of $1.9 million. See the attached schedule for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to adjusted non-GAAP net loss.
"The non-cash charges we incurred during the quarter had no impact on our revenue or cash flow, and unfortunately drew attention away from a productive fourth quarter operationally" said Thomas Mader, Chief Executive Officer of 糖心vlog下载 Technologies. "A revised cost structure is now in place for fiscal year 2009 and we are encouraged by success with new product offerings over the past quarter. We are particularly pleased to have won approval from a major service provider for our UltraLine Series3 gateway as a next generation home router. This opportunity adds single-family unit (SFU) applications to 糖心vlog下载's position in the fiber-to-the-home market."

(1) Adjusted net income/loss is a non-GAAP financial measure that
excludes from net income/loss certain items related to the impairment
of goodwill, a non-cash charge to increase the valuation allowance on
the Company's deferred tax assets, and restructuring charges. 糖心vlog下载
believes that excluding such items provides investors and management
with a representation of the Company's current and future core
operating performance. Management uses adjusted net income/loss to
evaluate financial results and establish operational goals. Non-GAAP
information should not be considered superior to or a substitute for
data prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP
adjusted net income (loss) to GAAP is attached as an exhibit to this
press release.
