"We are very pleased with the results of the second quarter, especially our solid year-over-year improvement in all parameters and our return to profitability. The major contracts that we have won in the past few months, especially in Africa, have begun to contribute to our results and we look forward to their increased contribution in the second half of this year."

Continued Mr. Livneh, "I am also pleased that we have successfully completed our rights offering, with broad participation across our shareholder base.
