- Revenues fell 11.7% year over year (Q3 2009 compared to Q3 2008) and 11.0% sequentially (Q3 2009 compared to Q2 2009), to $389.0 million.

- Impairment charges, consisting of write-offs of goodwill and a write-down of real estate, of $62.1 million were recorded in the current quarter. Goodwill impairments are preliminary and subject to adjustment (see below).
- Loss from operations for Q3 2009 was ($57.3) million including the $62.1 million impairment charge and restructuring charges of $0.6 million, compared to an operating loss of ($72.4) million during Q3 2008 (when impairment and restructuring charges totaled $16.5 million), and to an operating loss of ($8.8) million in Q2 2009 (when impairment and restructuring charges totaled $16.8 million).

RESULTS BY SEGMENT
IDT TELECOM
Adjusted EBITDA at IDT Telecom jumped to $10.0 million in Q3 2009, compared to a loss of ($0.9) million in the same period a year ago. Declines in revenue year-over-year were more than offset by aggressive reductions in SG&A spending and network connectivity costs.
Gross margin improved to 19.9% during the quarter, up from 19.3% in the year ago quarter, as aggressive reductions to network connectivity costs, combined with improvements to average termination cost per minute, more than offset the negative margin impact of top line volume and pricing declines. Our global calling card retail businesses maintained stable gross profit performance, holding well against the continued impact of the global economic downturn on the primary immigrant communities that we serve.
