Mati Broudo, Executive Chairman of m-Wise's board of directors stated: "During the first quarter of 2010 we have made a significant investment effort in the expansion of our presence in the Brazilian Market. We have expanded the team dedicated to our Brazilian operations and set our local human resources base in the country. We have strengthened our relationships with existing customers and other key players in Brazil such as mobile billing aggregators, local content providers and mobile carriers and we expect to see the results in significant growth in operation in this market towards the fourth quarter of the year and in 2011. Naturally this investment will have an impact on our balance sheet of 2010. Brazil is one of the largest and fastest growing mobile markets worldwide and this market plays a key role in our growth strategy.
In addition, we have strengthened our position in the US market which is still our main market. We have initiated a focused approached to media and content companies which we believe are ready to take advantage of the mobile space and we expect to see the results of our efforts in the coming quarters of 2010.
For the rest of calendar 2010, we plan to continue our expansion in the US and Brazilian market and we plan to make our services available to many of the global players in the mobile entertainment market and so set the foundation to our expansion to other markets in Europe and in Latin America. We also plan to become more involved in the creative and operational side of our clients business and expand our role as a technology player and use our aggregated know how and expertise to provide more solutions and services to our existing and future clients."
