We experience a growing demand for our solutions in our major markets and across all of our products: L&P, P&C, and Decision. The huge insurance market we operate in is actively looking for modern platforms to help carriers grow and better compete. Our business decision management solution is gaining traction with top-tier financial services, and we experienced growing interest in this market as well.”

Mr. Al-Dor continued: “We have made a strategic decision to increase our investments across our R&D, sales & marketing, and delivery. We believe that these investments will allow us to maintain our products’ excellence and further enrich their functionality; extend our market reach and visibility; and increase our delivery team to help meet the growing needs of our customers. In the short term, this will impact our gross and operating margins, but we believe it will also support our growth plans to become a market leader and achieve higher margins in the long term.”

Mr. Al-Dor concluded: “We reiterate our revenue guidance of $135 million for the year 2013.”
