WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. and NETANYA, Israel, May 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- magicJack VocalTec Ltd. (Nasdaq:CALL), a leading VoIP cloud-based communications and UCaaS company, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

“During the first quarter, we took decisive action to advance our dual track strategy,” said Don C. Bell, CEO of magicJack VocalTec. “We recruited a new executive management team, launched a strategic alternatives process, added two new board members, concluded two proxy contests, cut costs and underperforming initiatives and renewed our strategic focus on our core market and expanding our addressable market with our mobile-first, web-first strategy. By taking the actions we did in this quarter, which resulted in some one-time costs, I believe we’ve cut off unproductive future expenditures. I continue to be very excited about our opportunity to leverage our brand, installed subscriber base, CLEC network and recent R&D investments.”
