"We are pleased with our results for the third fiscal quarter, particularly in light of the on-going strain in the global economy. Favorable foreign currency movements increased third quarter revenue and EPS relative to our expectations for the quarter. Even without currency benefits, our results were at or above the mid-point of our guidance ranges. Additionally, backlog remained stable and we continued to meet our profit and cash flow objectives, all of which are encouraging," said Dov Baharav, chief executive officer of Amdocs Management Limited.

Baharav continued, "Demand conditions, however, remain weak, particularly for large transformational projects, as our customers manage their budgets tightly. As a result, we anticipate that our revenue may continue to trend down sequentially, albeit at a moderating pace, until we see demand improve. This view is reflected in our fourth fiscal quarter guidance, and we believe this trend could persist into early fiscal 2010."
