The company posted a net profit of Rs 5.18 crore during the quarter under review as compared to a net loss of Rs 8.18 crore in Q2 CY 2009.
- The company benefited from the growth in the US Pre-paid mobile market through increased revenues from this sector.
- The performance during the quarter is not directly comparable as the company had divested its IT services business in October 2009.
- 65% of the revenue came from the prepaid & datacom real-time processing products while 10% of the revenue was contributed by the supply of small telecom infrastructure solutions to smaller regional telecom players. The other major contributor was the mobile roaming customer authentication products. Around 17% of the revenue was contributed by mobile commerce and various application products related to mobile commerce.
- During the quarter under review Megasoft (XIUS-bcgi) was offered a major upgrade of its INfinet Prepaid hosted solution in the USA.

- The debtor day reduced to 108 during the quarter ended June 2010 as compared to 240 days during the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
- 80% of the revenue receivables are long term contracts which are billed monthly.
- The company has successfully changed from a licensing revenue based model to an application service provider model. Going forward the company plans to focus on prepaid connectivity, roaming platform and mobile commerce business.

- The total debt in the book as on June 2010 was Rs 178.12 crore, while the cash balance was Rs 24.55 crore.
- Barring Rs 10 crore worth of rupee loan all other loans are dollar denominated. Thus the company has a natural hedge in terms in hedging its dollar revenue receivables.
