"Our strong 2011 financial results were primarily driven by increased demand for our portfolio of products in North America and Asia Pacific combined with consistent high gross margins," said Zee Hakimoglu, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of ClearOne. "Our continued stellar operational performance in 2011 is reflected in the 37% increase in adjusted EBITDA from a year ago.
"Looking ahead, we will leverage our technology acquisitions, benefit from the wealth of experience the retained management teams bring, and continue to develop our sales channels to enter significantly larger and higher growth markets."
