"Customers continue to value our products, even in this market downturn," said Pierre Haren, president and CEO of ILOG. "Business increased this quarter in the finance, transportation and e-government markets. For example, several large ILOG customers such as United Airlines, Sabre Group and VISA made additional purchases this quarter, while we've also seen an influx of new smaller customers. Weakness in the telecommunications market and in some parts of our value chain business caused some lowered royalty payments, order delays and reductions in the initial size of contracts in those sectors as certain customers adopted temporary cost-saving measures." Added Haren: "Even with these market conditions, our overall competitive position has improved. Our diversified business model - balanced between ISVs and corporations, and across market sectors, product lines and geographies - helps us weather challenging periods. In short, we're well equipped for the future." ILOG's ISV portfolio grew to new levels during the quarter as the company captured design wins with a record 33 new ISV partners, bringing the total to more than 300. Newcomers include: Murex, a vendor in the financial services market; NetDecide and Bowstreet, offering e-business solutions; and Inter Design Technology, a Japanese supplier of design automation products.
