NeraTel announced its 4Q2016 financial results on 22nd February 2017. After the sale of its payment solution business to Ingenico, NeraTel business is left with the Telecommunication business segment and Network Infrastructure business segment.
In 4Q2016, revenue from the Telecommunication business segment decreased slightly by 4% ($0.8 million) from $19.1 million to $18.3 million. Revenue from the Network Infrastructure business segment improved by 54.0% ($11.0 million) from $20.3 million to $31.3 million.
