UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO BENEFIT FROM A RESUMPTION OF GROWTH IN OUR INDUSTRY. As we look back on 2010, the recovery in our main market, the U.S., proved to be much softer than anticipated as indicated by stable North American revenues when compared to 2009. This in no way reflects our competitive position, but rather a flat line U.S. economy. The situation is brighter in new markets where we are investing for the future, such as China, Brazil and Russia. As for Europe, revenues have increased reflecting strong momentum in Central Europe partially offset by Southern Europe.

A WORD FROM THE CEO We enter fiscal 2011 with confidence in what we have accomplished to position 20-20 on the right course and as we begin the implementation of our new strategic plan. Our win rates in our various market segments indicate that 20-20’s competitive position has been enhanced and our objective is clearly to further improve it with a solid product roadmap, our end-to-end solution which is gaining traction and a more collaborative approach with existing and new partners. We will continue to proactively and prudently manage our operating expenses. As we have done in the past, we will react quickly to demand volatility. Balancing short-term profitability objectives while investing in our business to create medium-term value for shareholders remains our focus.
