Our performance during the third quarter reflects the return on our commitment and focus on continued execution.

Spending levels during the quarter were below expectations but represented a more diverse set of key service providers and carriers. We remain committed to financial fundamentals, our multiple market strategy, and to the expansion of our product portfolio, all of which will be critical growth drivers when the public networking industry outlook improves.

What we are seeing is that customers are taking longer to make decisions and as a result, taking longer to close business
business decisions close result
Customers are more willing to enter discussions and engage vendors,.. Primarily, they don't have the urgency to act that they did last year, and customers are putting pressures on everybody with whom they do business.

The second quarter represents an example of our priorities during these times customer growth, financial discipline, and continued investment in innovation.

Juniper remains at the intersection of opportunity, where the increasing and strategic importance of today's network demands the integrated best-in-class solutions that the company was built to deliver.

We have a billion company in a 0 billion market, and our challenge is to focus on our customers and our opportunities and to execute. No one questions the opportunity that's ahead of us and the potential for Juniper to realize the magnitude of that opportunity. The work of recent months and the priority of the [future] will be to remain focused and to let our execution speak for itself.
