ECI Reports Continued Rise in Profits in Third Quarter 2006



PETACH TIKVA, Israel - October 26, 2006--ECI Telecom Ltd. (NASDAQ: ECIL), a global provider of advanced telecommunications solutions to leading carriers and service providers, reported today that revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 reached $170 million, a 5% increase from the $162 million recorded in the third quarter of 2005 and similar to the level recorded in the second quarter of 2006.

GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2006 reached $7.1 million, or $0.06 per share on a fully diluted basis. This is up 14% compared with third quarter 2005 net income of $6.2 million, or $0.05 per share on a fully diluted basis and with $9.6 million, or $0.08 per share, in the second quarter of 2006, which included a unique $4.1 million gain, or $0.03 per share, resulting from the distribution of ECtel shares to ECI`s shareholders.

Pro forma, non-GAAP, net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $11.1 million, or $0.09 per share, on a fully diluted basis. This is up 39% compared with third quarter 2005 non-GAAP net income of $8.0 million, or $0.07 per fully diluted share, and compared with $14.8 million, or $0.12 per share in the second quarter of 2006, which had also included the above mentioned $4.1 million gain resulting from the distribution of the ECtel shares.

ECI's pro forma net income differs from results reported under U.S. GAAP due to adjustments made for the following on-going, non-cash items:

 
·
The amortization of acquired intangible assets.
 
·
The impact of share-based compensation.

ECI has been providing non-GAAP results reflecting these adjustments, as applicable, since the third quarter of 2005. Please see the accompanying Tables 4, 5 6 and 7 for a full reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results.

The results of operations provided by ECI, both GAAP and pro forma non-GAAP, include the impact of Veraz Networks. Based on its 41% holding (33% fully diluted), ECI consolidates Veraz according to the equity method of accounting under "Company's equity in results of investee companies" on a one quarter lag basis.

Last week Veraz filed an S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC relating to its proposed initial public offering, in which ECI may also sell shares. Veraz has made certain adjustments to its financial statements since inception in 2002. These adjustments had an impact on its net losses for the periods through June 30, 2006, resulting in a higher than anticipated loss consolidated by ECI in this third quarter, which amounted in total to $2.8 million.

Cash flow from operating activities totaled $5.3 million for the third quarter of 2006, bringing the year-to-date cash flow to $35.6 million. As of September 30, 2006, ECI Telecom's cash, including short and long-term deposits and marketable securities, totaled $255 million, or $2.14 per share, with no debt.


Revenues for the Optical Networks Division continued to rise for the 13th consecutive quarter, totaling $101 million for the third quarter of 2006, up 20% from the year ago period and up 11% from the second quarter of 2006. On a GAAP basis, operating income for the Division reached $16.8 million, and on a pro forma non-GAAP basis operating income reached $17.7 million. The Division's performance was driven by continued strong demand for cellular backhaul equipment in emerging markets.

Revenues for the Broadband Access Division totaled $57 million for the third quarter of 2006, down from $68 million in the year ago period and down as anticipated from $66 million in the second quarter of 2006. On a GAAP basis, operating income for the division totaled $5.4 million, while pro forma non-GAAP operating income reached $5.9 million. The decline in revenues from the previous quarter was attributable entirely to lower revenues from Deutsche Telekom’s new High Speed Internet project, which contributed $16 million to the second quarter revenues while contributing only $3 million to the third quarter.

Revenues for the Data Networking Division (formerly Laurel Networks) increased sequentially to $4 million for the third quarter of 2006, from $3 million in the second quarter of 2006, and compared with $2 million in the third quarter of 2005. On a GAAP basis, the operating loss for the Division totaled $9 million, while the pro forma non-GAAP operating loss was $7.5 million, reflecting continued high R&D spending.

Commenting on the results, Rafi Maor, President and CEO said, “I am pleased to report another good quarter. While top line revenue grew year-over-year, third quarter revenues were flat sequentially, in line with management expectations. This represents the continued strong revenue growth in our optical business offset by lower revenues in broadband access. Furthermore, we were able to achieve continued growth in our net income as the Optical Networks Division, now an increasingly larger majority of our business, continued to demonstrate strong profitability and we enjoyed a more favorable sales mix in the access business.

“Optical networking revenues continue to experience solid sequential and year-over-year gains as we continue to increase our global market share. Higher sales are attributable to continued cellular subscriber growth in key emerging markets such as India, Russia and Ukraine, which propelled demand for our cellular backhaul offering. During the quarter, ECI began recognizing revenues from the $59 million contract with ICE in Costa Rica. ICE is a government owned utility company to which ECI is providing a countrywide optical backbone that includes over 100 XDM optical platforms. This new backbone will provide ICE the capacity to deliver countrywide voice and data services to fixed as well as mobile subscribers.

“The growth achieved in the optical business was offset by an anticipated decline in our broadband access sales. In this business we are currently experiencing weaker demand from our two major customers and expect revenues to continue to decline in the fourth quarter, before gradually recovering from that level during 2007. Carriers increasingly recognize the need to transform their network infrastructure to support advanced, triple play services. Deutsche Telekom and France Telecom, the main customers of our Broadband Access Division, are in various stages of building their next generation broadband networks in which we expect to continue to play a major role. This process is taking longer than anticipated, in some cases due to regulatory issues. Nevertheless, we believe this is a temporary delay and we continue to believe that these new networks represent exciting opportunities for ECI.
 
“We are also working to expand our broadband customer base as evidenced by recent wins in Romania & Vietnam. We believe that some of the emerging markets like Russia, India and East Europe, where we already enjoy a strong market position in the optical space, represent a potential source of growth for our broadband business. ECI is emerging as a leader in next generation broadband networks and we are proud that the Multimedia Research Group (MRG) reiterated ECI’s ranking as the number one access system provider in Europe based on the number of IPTV subscribers and the number two provider worldwide during the first half of 2006.

“Revenues in the quarter for our Data Networking Division continued to grow. During the quarter the division received an important follow on order from Korea Telecom (KT) for deployment on their metro Ethernet network.

“We are continuing the significant efforts to develop our next generation multi service edge router - expected to be available by the second half of 2007. We are pleased with the progress of the development efforts and encouraged by initial customer interest. We are also leveraging the strength of our advanced edge routing and IP service capabilities by integrating them into our next generation access and transport products. Notwithstanding the strategic importance of this division, we are committed to reduce the financial impact it now has on our results,” concluded Maor.

Guidance

Updating its guidance for the fourth quarter of 2006, ECI now expects a sequential decline of between 8-12% in consolidated revenues. This is derived from a significant decline in broadband access revenues, partially offset by the expected continued growth in the optical business. Despite this, ECI expects net income in the fourth quarter to be close to third quarter levels, due to the better performance of the optical division- which is becoming a significant majority of ECI`s business, as well as improved gross margins in the broadband business, due to a more favorable sales mix.

Based on current market conditions, ECI expects revenues in 2007 to increase in a range of 4-8% compared with 2006 and net income to grow faster than revenues.

Nine Months Results

For the first nine months of 2006, revenues reached $502 million, a 9% increase from the $461 million reported for the first nine months of 2005. On a GAAP basis, net income was $19.8 million, or $0.16 per share fully diluted, compared to net income of $32.2 million, or $0.27 per share, for the first nine months of 2005.  

Pro forma, non-GAAP, net income for the first nine months of 2006 was $33 million, or $0.27 per diluted share.
