Michael Wellesley-Wesley, Chyron President and CEO, commented, "2007 was a strong year for us as we achieved record revenue, having increased 23% over the prior year period. However, the real story lies in the second six months of 2007 when revenue was up 41% over the equivalent prior year period. These increases reflect strong demand right across our broadcast graphics product line, especially overseas where our European revenue was up 45%, as compared to 2006, while the rest of our international markets experienced a year over year revenue increase of 66%. These increases reflect significant market share gains and we anticipate making further progression in these efforts during the course of 2008."

"In January 2008 we announced the purchase of AXIS Graphics and the launch of Chyron Online. We expect AXIS to become the core growth engine for Chyron, as its game changing technology both transforms the way we do business with our traditional media customers and opens up brand new markets with significant growth potential. At a minimum, we believe Chyron's addressable market opportunity has quadrupled from $200 million per year to $800 million per year. Our main objective now is to execute our growth strategy so we can capitalize on this opportunity. We plan to launch an entire suite of AXIS web-based services at the NAB tradeshow in April. Early adopters will certainly come from our traditional customer base but soon after, the utility and ease of use of the AXIS content creation platform will come to be appreciated across the entire range of Online Media Enterprises," added Mr. Wellesley-Wesley.
