Management's comment
Dr. Ido Schechter, CEO of TIS, commented: "As a result of our decision to focus on core activities and more profitable business opportunities, we saw a decrease in sales. However, this allowed us to increase our gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and cash flow from operations. TIS achieved non-GAAP operating margin of 8% compared to 6.6% for the same period last year. For the remainder of 2010 we will continue to focus on large scale opportunities including large governmental and population census projects, as well as projects for banks and financial organizations that are looking to cut costs and improve customer service. We believe that with our strong pipeline and proved solutions, TIS is well positioned to maintain sustainable profitable growth."
