. "We continued to focus on what we can control, and the results speak for themselves. Our operational performance is on par with peak historical results, especially in the areas of gross margins and income as a percentage of revenue."

Further commenting on Cisco's performance, Chambers noted, "Throughout this challenging time, we have focused on four key areas: profits, cash generation, productivity, and profitable market-share gains. We have consistently improved quarter by quarter in each of these categories, with our fourth quarter bringing in more than $1 billion in pro forma net income, $1.6 billion in cash from operations, a 22 percent productivity increase over last year's fourth quarter and 12 percent year-over-year revenue growth compared to a 44 percent decline by our top ten competitors."

Market Segment Update

Enterprise

Enterprise customers continue to be cautious but steady in spending. Cisco's strategy is focused on providing market-leading technology solutions that help its customers extend their enterprises across traditional corporate boundaries.

Cisco continued its market-share leadership in enterprise routing, switching, security, and voice over IP, with new products introduced across all of these categories during the quarter. This momentum is a direct result of organizations seeking to maximize benefits of current IT investments while preparing for the future. Examples include the Bulgarian Ministry of Transportation and Communications, which is deploying Cisco's Internet Protocol See Internet and TCP/IP.

Service Provider

The worldwide service provider market remained challenged as carriers searched for innovative ways to generate revenue while controlling expenses. In response to this need, Cisco continued working closely with service providers to both identify and deploy profitable services, while also helping them to reduce costs through internal productivity improvements.

Service providers are also looking to Cisco for assistance in the development and marketing of revenue-generating services that meet their enterprise customers' needs today. An example of this collaboration Working together on a project. See collaborative software.  is the Cisco alliance with Sprint, announced earlier this fiscal year. As a result of this alliance, Sprint has gained five major customers over the past quarter, including Chico's Chico's is the name of more than one retail chain:

Commercial

The commercial market segment remains an area of healthy growth for network adoption and deployment of intelligent network solutions. The emerging markets, which include network security, mobility, and converged voice and data solutions, are of specific interest to small- and medium-sized Me´di`um-sized`

 businesses (SMBs).

Cisco took another step forward in bringing intelligent services to the midsized network edge with the introduction of enhanced security services Security services are state institutions for the provision of intelligence, primarily of a strategic nature, but also including protective security intelligence. Examples include the Security Service (MI5) and the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) in the United Kingdom, and the  on the Cisco Catalyst(R) 3550 and 2950 Series Intelligent Ethernet switches A device that connects clients and servers to each other in an Ethernet network.

    Note 1: Diluted net loss per share for the twelve months ended
July 28, 2001 is computed using the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period and excludes common-equivalent
shares, as their effect is anti-dilutive. The dilutive potential
common shares that were antidilutive for fiscal 2001 amounted to 348
million shares.
