``Redback continued to achieve key objectives during the fourth quarter of 2000,'' said Vivek Ragavan, chief executive officer and president of Redback. ``From a financial perspective, we delivered another profitable quarter with record revenue and net income. Equally important was the strong global demand for both our next generation products, the SMS 10000 and SmartEdge 800, as well as our industry-standard SMS 500 and SMS 1800 subscriber management systems. We continue to consolidate our market position as a leading vendor of broadband subscriber management systems and next-generation metro optical solutions.''
During the quarter, the company expanded its global presence with new distribution agreements in Europe and Asia. International revenue grew 121 percent sequentially, reflecting design wins at Korea Telecom and Belgacom S.A., among others. ``The international markets are in the early phases of implementing their broadband access strategies,'' remarked Ragavan. ``With global customer base and growing international presence, our strong cash position and powerful product portfolio, we begin 2001 well positioned to capitalize on the coming migration to next generation broadband and metro optical networks.
