This was another strong quarter for us as our customer focused strategy of serving the networking needs of the small business and home-networking markets is driving record growth in revenue and operating profit. Importantly, the needs and demand levels of the small business and home networking markets remain robust and give us confidence in our prospects." "We completed our Initial Public Offering on July 31. The IPO represents a major milestone in the history of NETGEAR and further strengthens the company's financial position, which will allow us to address new business and technology opportunities as we continue to expand the breadth of our product offerings and geographic reach," continued Lo. "I would like to thank our employees and early investors for their dedication and support through our IPO process. We also would like to thank our public investors for their show of confidence in our business and our management." Through its initial public offering, NETGEAR raised approximately $102 million net of expenses. The Company used $20.0 million of the proceeds to repay an outstanding note to Nortel Networks and $17.0 million to repay amounts drawn on its bank line of credit. The repayment of debt is expected to result in a pre-tax charge of approximately $6.0 million in the third quarter 2003 due to the acceleration of interest expense equal to the unamortized discount balance at the date of payment. Jonathan Mather, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, said, "During the second quarter, we saw strength across all product categories and geographies. The higher revenues, combined with a more favorable product mix and ongoing operating efficiency improvement, led to an expansion in our gross margin to 27.6% compared to 27.3% in the first quarter and 25.6% in the year ago second quarter." During the quarter, NETGEAR announced further enhancements to its already comprehensive set of small business and home networking solutions by expanding its line of 802.11g wireless networking products for homes and launching the industry's first dual band 802.11a+g VPN firewall for small business. In addition, NETGEAR introduced a new category of business-class wireless solutions, including an access point and antennae line that deliver higher security and expanded wireless range to small business. Looking forward, Mr. Lo added, "We are entering the seasonally strong second half with confidence in our outlook. Our retail channel is experiencing good back-to-school demand. We are also benefiting from strength in our small businesses channels such as Value Added Re-sellers (VARs), and Direct Marketing Re-sellers (DMRs), as more and more business customers seek the improved performance and mobility offered by our high speed wired and wireless solutions."
