"Our license revenue performance this quarter has led us to reassess our business in terms of both the financial picture and also our strategic initiatives. Despite our progress in rebuilding our sales pipeline, we are seeing a lengthening of the sales cycle as potential customers scrutinize their enterprise application purchases to a far greater degree than in the past," said Stig Durlow, President and Chief Executive Officer of Industri-Matematik. "Although we have made progress in penetrating our target markets, notably the fast-moving durables and wholesale/retail markets, we are finding that we still do not have a sufficiently strong brand recognition outside of our partnership with Oracle in the CPG space.
"Our immediate task is to close deals in the fourth quarter, and we are working closely with a few of our strategic partners to help us in this area. We also plan to leverage these relationships more often in our sales process in the future. In addition to addressing revenue issues, we will re-align our costs in order to restore long-term profitability as soon as possible. Longer term, we will aggressively enhance our market presence in our target verticals, beginning with a very visible direct marketing campaign to create awareness about the customer benefits of our supply chain management solution.
"We recognize that these are difficult times for Industri-Matematik and that the challenge is on us to address and correct some difficult issues to succeed. We are committed to take whatever action necessary to move the company forward," concluded Mr. Durlow.
