Dr. Ido Schechter, Top Image Systems' CEO, commented: "2007 has been a year of substantial developments for the Company following the acquisition of two companies, one in the UK and one in Asia, expanding both our product portfolio and geographic presence. These two acquisitions, however, paired with a changing market environment and a lengthening sales cycle, created many challenges for us as a team. The environment and longer sales cycle directly affected our business, delaying previously anticipated fourth quarter orders to the beginning of 2008. In order to meet these new challenges, we implemented wide-spread restructuring measures with a view to aligning our business processes to take advantage of the opportunities in the market place, while placing significant focus on expanding and enhancing our order pipeline."

"Looking ahead, we are currently negotiating several large transactions which we expect to serve as revenue anchors in the coming quarters. In the first quarter of 2008, we won one such order after close to twelve months' of hard work. Furthermore, during the first few months of 2008, we developed a healthy order pipeline, reaching close to $90 million. Altogether, we believe the Company has managed to successfully integrate the new acquisitions, which, together with the implemented group-wide restructuring measures, will grant the Company the necessary business structure, product breadth and geographic presence, to grow and progress in 2008. In 2008, we expect to show organic growth of 25% and to generate revenues of $30 million, while presenting 5-7% operating margin," Dr. Schechter concluded.
