"Although we are unhappy about falling below our internal goals for the quarter, we are confident in the overall strength of the market for the company's products," said Rick Adam, NEON's chief executive officer. "The impact on operating results this quarter stems largely from two factors. First, we have incurred expense items related to our continued building of infrastructure so we can respond effectively to market opportunities. Second, a number of sales we expected did not close by the end of the quarter."
