For the year-ended December 31, 2001, total revenue increased 554% to approximately $11.9 million from approximately $1.8 million for the prior-year period in 2000. The significant increase in sales largely reflects new customers gained from the company's successful roll-up roll-up

Net loss for the 2001 year-end period is primarily a result of the expenses associated with the integration of three significant asset acquisitions made in 2001; therefore, the comparative results between 2001 and 2000 are not a meaningful indication of current success or future results.

"Looking ahead, we are rigorously advancing the momentum built in 2001. We successfully penetrated California California (kăl'ĭfôr`nyə), most populous state in the United States, located in the Far West; bordered by Oregon (N), Nevada and, across the Colorado River, Arizona (E), Mexico (S), and the Pacific Ocean (W). , Texas and Missouri Missouri, state, United States

By definition, then, a business that focuses on a niche market is addressing a need for a product or service that is not being addressed by mainstream providers.
. Also, we will continue leveraging our direct and indirect sales channels to grow and retain our customer base as well as expand our product offerings. Equally important, we will continue to deploy voice switches, such as our most recent deployment in Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. , which dramatically reduced regional telecom service costs by approximately 20%-30% and lowered rates to Pac-Rim and Latin American countries List of American countries

"Overall, we successfully built a solid foundation in 2001 for greater future growth in 2002 and beyond. We have plans to provide service in the Florida, New York Florida is the name of some places in the U.S. state of New York:
