VoIP Inc. posts $11.9 million loss

VoIP Inc., doubled its net loss during the second quarter of '07 compared to a year ago. The Orlando, Fla., enterprise voice-over-IP provider posted a loss of $11.9 million for the quarter ending June 30, compared to a loss of $5.2 million last year. Revenues declined from $2 million last year during the same period to $1.9 million this year.

VoIP Inc. Chairman and CEO Anthony Cataldo said the loss was related to "building the business," and that July revenues increased 59 percent over June to about $852,000. The increase was related to a 47 percent increase in termination minutes on the VoIP Inc. network. Cataldo said August revenues were on target to exceed $1 million. He also said the company was positioned to serve more than 50 million households and businesses, with a target of 200 million subscribers and enterprise lines by year end.

Last week, VoIP Inc. executed a 1-for-20 reverse stock split. Trading over-the-counter as VOIC, the former tea-trading company closed Aug. 22 at 55 cents a share, having fallen 21 percent during the day. A turn-around doesn't appear imminent.
