"In the face of difficult market conditions, our focus on operational improvements, balance sheet metrics, and overall cash management yielded strong results," said Harald Braun, president and chief executive officer of Harris Stratex Networks. "Our cash and short-term investments reached a record $116 million and our operating cash flow was positive for the seventh consecutive quarter."


"During the third quarter we continued global infrastructure build-outs addressing expanded broadband requirements as our network operator customers sought to meet continuing increases in data traffic. In February, we acquired Telsima, a leading developer of next-generation broadband wireless network solutions. We believe this acquisition affords us a strategic advantage with technology, software and a customer base as we pursue future 4G opportunities," added Braun. http://www.HarrisStratex.com
