Vyyo Inc.

Vyyo Inc. is listed on NASDAQ (VYYO). We supply end-to-end broadband communication network solutions. Our infrastructure solutions significantly expand the two-way bandwidth capacity of hybrid-fiber coaxial cable television networks. Our technology enables operators to deliver circuit-switched and Internet Protocol (IP) based broadband services to business and residential subscribers. We sell our systems to system integrators, distributors and directly to service providers. Starting in 2003, we believed new opportunities might develop for our traditional wireless products and began to dedicate additional resources to sales in international markets, particularly China. These opportunities, however, are developing slowly and the pricing environment is very competitive. If our sales do not substantially increase from current levels, we will continue to incur losses, and may never achieve profitability.
