  • Wall Street Commentary

    Despite the earnings miss and pressure on the shares this morning, we still see some downside risk in sales and margins for the next several quarters. We believe that the year-over-year decline for core Aviators sales highlights sales of IP telephony products mostly just cannibalizes sales of traditional telephony products and the enterprise telephony industry as a whole has shown and is likely to continue to show limited growth.

    Jiong Shao, Lehman Brothers (April 20, 2005)

    We believe that most of the issues are temporary, the Tenovis integration wiped out almost 50% of this quarters EPS and service revenue weakness explains the rest. The Tenovis integration had a highly detrimental effectcontributing a loss of $28m in the quarter. The integration of this company is clearly proving to be a more challenging task than envisioned by the company.

    Tal Liani, Merrill Lynch & Co. (April 20, 2005)

    Despite these reductions to our top-line forecast and an assumed market-even growth outlook in our discounted cash flow model we still view the shares as grossly undervalued by the market. While we certainly acknowledge a lower bar has been set with the disappointing results for F2Q, we do not believe the current stock price fairly represents the companys cash-generating potential over the longer term.

    Timm Bechter, Legg Mason (April 20, 2005)

    We are maintaining our Neutral rating as we expect the current pause in VoIP demand to continue through calendar 2005. We believe that organic growth could be flat year-over-year with flat-to-down gross and net margins. We do not expect VoIP sales to be robust enough to overcome the declining legacy TDM business, in order to give Aviator significant growth to warrant a buy rating.

  • Section 3-116

    Transaction Considerations

  • Nortel Merges with AviatorStrategic Rationale

    Dominant Legacy PBX Vendor

    Globally

    Potential to create the largest PBX vendor globally, with combined enterprise revenue of $8.1 billion and well-entrenched customer relationships

    Nortel/Aviator will be the #1 vendor in the North American enterprise voice market, with a combined market share of approximately 47%

    Nortel/Aviator will be the #1 vendor in the global contact center market, with market shares of 56%, 54% and 75% in North America, Europe and Asia respectively

    Could potentially have the scale and the R&D capabilities to take on Cisco in the enterprise PBX portion of the overall enterprise market as it transforms from circuit to IP

    Different Channel and Portfolio

    Strategies Create Opportunities for

    Cross Selling

    Aviators channel mix is mostly direct (65%), whereas Nortels enterprise channel strategy is almost entirely indirect

    Nortels enterprise business generates approximately 30% of revenue from sale of data networking equipment; Aviator currently generates no revenue from sale of data networking equipment

    Aviator could potentially cross-sell its service offerings into Nortels customer base; Nortel could potentially cross-sell its data offerings into Aviators customer base

    Similar Geographic Footprint Creates Potential for Cost

    Synergies

    Significant opportunities for cost synergies exist through reductions in cost of sales, overlapping R&D platforms and redundant G&A functions

    Geographic proximity of Nortel and Aviator should allow for efficient execution of these synergies.
