Thank you Yuval. First I am pleased to note an increased interest in our company evidenced by big trading volume in our shares and also a larger number of participants on this call. We have on the call right now 15 participants. This motivates us in our efforts to grow the company for the benefit of our shareholders.

Regarding our future growth, currently we have more than 1800 active customers which is a very good platform for additional products, revenues, and profit. We are working extensively and carefully on expanding our system integrations capabilities by entering into new sales on our customer side.

Unidentified Analyst

Hi, as you all remember I have been an investor in the company for many years. I just listened to the history and I saw that I had a position in the company's stocking in 2002 I think and since then it has been rough to… [Question Inaudible]. [Technical Difficulty].

Yuval Viner

Okay Rafi, thank you for the question because there are more participant. We understand your point and I will….

[Question Inaudible]..

Yuval Viner

Okay Rafi, thank you very much. Thank you very much for your opinion. First there is a shareholders meeting next week so you are invited to come and to share your vote.

And second Rafi if I may please, if I may please second, just to get into proportion in the recent -- just in the recent two weeks or recent months the total volume of the shares I think it was about more than $10 million. I am not counting from the beginning of the year.

And from the beginning of the year we raised about $600,000 so we take it into consideration and in the right proportion and those and the money that you raise has no -- any effect on the share price. We believe that the only effect on the share price is the performance and exposure of the company to the investment community.

And on the long-term it will work, this is our belief. Thank you. For the next question if I may, sorry Rafi there are more -- there are about 15 participants. I understand your point. We are moving to our next question from other participant please..

The next question is from Todd Felte of RHK Capital. Please go ahead..

Todd Felte

Thank you guys, great quarter. Glad to see you up the guidance on the net income there. You had mentioned at the beginning of the call that there was a little bit of a currency loss that you took I believe from the Shekel to Dollar conversion.

Can you quantify how much that was?.

Eyal Cohen Chief Executive Officer & Director

It was about $250,000 [ph] in the nine months of the year..

Todd Felte

Okay, and you can't break that down by quarter?.

Eyal Cohen Chief Executive Officer & Director

You can take it evenly because it was gradually devaluated so if we made in the nine months $450,000 so excluding the $150,000 we could end with $600,000..

Todd Felte

Okay, and second of all can you kind of -- there is a lot of recent talk and chatter about a potential deal that was even picked up on some of the American newswires with an Intel and Mobili.

Are you able to comment on that or at least say if that is -- if there is any truth to that at all or if you are working on some more contracts with these guys?.

Yuval Viner

About what, I didn’t get you again..

Todd Felte

There was a news release, it was covered by several of the American newswires a week or two ago, that you are in talks on working on a large contract with the Intel and Mobili, is there any truth to that or…?.

Yuval Viner

No..

Todd Felte

Okay..

Yuval Viner

There isn’t..
