Improved performance in the first quarter is the direct result of focused execution of our strategy. Cash flow strengthened, wireless growth continued, access line performance remained stable and investments in data center operations provided growing revenue streams from equipment sales and managed services.

Our go-to-market strategy continues to be effective as March Networks delivers yet another quarter of sequential growth. March Networks is focused on delivering innovative products, great service, and outstanding sales execution. These financial results are a direct result of that unwavering focus.

Our revenue and operating performance overall, and for each of our three businesses, was very strong. Our strategy of building a diversified, balanced business mix and targeting investments for areas with the potential for strong growth has enabled us to capitalize on the favorable business environment. We remain focused on disciplined execution of our strategy.

Third-quarter sales met expectations, benefiting from a strong hardcover release schedule in October. If our sales trend continues, we are optimistic that the company will be able to deliver its fourth-quarter results as planned.

Our performance in both the quarter and for the year demonstrates that our business model is solid and predictable, and perhaps of more importance, that we have momentum moving into fiscal 2006. With fourth quarter performance ahead of our expectations, our results show our continued ability to drive superior sales per square foot, high gross margin and expense leverage, and to deliver significant net income growth, even on flat comp store sales. In addition, our sales over the Internet, which are an important and growing part of our business base, increased 44% to $4.0 million in the quarter, and for the year contributed $8.7 million to our sales.

Strong market growth continued to be driven by lower prices and mobility in the third quarter. These factors sped up new PC adoption and replacement activities. Overall market growth exceeded expectations, with home demand for mobile being particularly strong.

Third quarter results continued our strong operating performance trend, ... New orders exceeded $540 million in the quarter, despite Joy Mining experiencing a $62 million decline in roof support orders from the same quarter last year. Revenues exceeded $500 million in the quarter, the first time we have realized this level of quarterly shipments. Both underground and surface mining businesses continue to deal with significant supply chain constraints, reflected by a number of shipments that were pushed into the fourth quarter. Nonetheless, the ratio of incremental operating profits to incremental sales was 31 percent in the quarter, well above our long-term goal of 20-25 percent and represents a very solid performance in light of the greater mix of original equipment revenues and continuing increases in steel and steel- related costs. Conditions in our end markets continue to point to an extended, strong global mining cycle. We face the challenge of increasing capacity to meet demand, while managing a tight supply chain. Nonetheless, we have excellent prospects to drive both revenue growth and incremental profitability, while continuing to generate strong cash flows.

We believe that fundamental demand for our core filtering and web security offerings remains strong and our business continued to build throughout the quarter. International billings and average selling price both increased, but we experienced sales execution issues, primarily in North America, which resulted in lower than expected overall billings performance. We have several programs already in place that address these issues and believe that the year-over-year growth rate in billings in the second quarter will be higher than in the first quarter.

Our company remains consistent in its execution of a focused and proven business plan in meeting the strong performance expectations we set earlier this year. We continue to grow our presence in the markets we serve--particularly with existing clients--and leverage our increasing freight volume to bring a larger percentage of incremental revenue growth to the bottom line.

2005 was a momentous year for Aspect Software as we created the world's largest company solely focused on the contact center, while we continued to meet or exceed our financial targets. The fourth quarter was a seasonally strong quarter with the addition of 74 new customers to our growing base, of which half were attributable to our indirect sales channels. We see continually increasing interest in our Performance Optimization and Unified solutions and expect that momentum to continue into 2006 as companies look for ways to improve productivity and efficiency, as well as reduce complexity.

Our retail sales were strong again in March and we exceeded our expectations despite another substantial reduction in daily rental fleet volume. We continue to exceed our year ago retail levels, our share continues to stabilize and our inventories remain lean.
