TRBM Terabeam (MM)

Terabeam, Inc. (NASDAQ:TRBM), a global pioneer and leading developer and supplier of Mesh, WiMAX, Wi-Fi and Millimeter Wave wireless products and�solutions, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006. Revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was $17.9 million, a decrease of approximately 14% from the revenue of $20.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 and a decrease of approximately 1% from the revenue of $18.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $57.1 million, an increase of approximately 79% from the revenue of $31.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The significant increase in revenue over the prior year�s comparable period resulted primarily from our acquisition of the operations of Proxim Corporation in the third quarter of 2005. Due to it being a cash acquisition, there was no equity dilution due to the acquisition. The net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was $13.7 million ($0.63 per share-diluted) compared to net loss of $3.0 million ($0.14 per share-diluted) for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 and net loss of $10.0 million ($0.47 per share-diluted) for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The third quarter 2006 net loss included non-cash charges totaling approximately $10.4 million (approximately $0.48 per share-diluted), consisting of an inventory reserve of approximately $1.5 million and an impairment charge related to intangible assets of approximately $8.9 million. The third quarter 2005 net loss included $7.8 million of restructuring provisions and charges (approximately $0.36 per share-diluted) as a result of our purchase of the operations of Proxim Corporation. Robert Fitzgerald, Terabeam�s Chief Executive Officer, stated, �We are seeing customer uptake of our WiMAX and Wi-Fi Mesh products. Although both of these products are experiencing significant year over year percentage growth for us, we must strive to make them significant contributors in terms of overall revenue to realize our growth strategy. We have seen the intended benefits of the cost reduction plan that we implemented in the second quarter.� Conference Call Information Terabeam will host a conference call to discuss this release, financial results, developments at the company, and other matters of interest to investors and others today, November 13, 2006 starting at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
