Ericsson CEO Börje Ekholm Highlights Challenges in India, Expects US Contracts to Drive Growth
Börje Ekholm, President and CEO, said: "In Q2, we maintained our leading market position, returned to growth in North America, and delivered strong gross margin expansion and free cash flow. We remained focused on matters in our control, to optimize our business amid a challenging market environment, with industry investment levels unsustainably low.
总裁兼首席执行官Börje Ekholm表示：“在第二季度，我们保持了领先的市场地位，恢复了北美的增长，并实现了强劲的毛利率增长和自由现金流。在充满挑战的市场环境中，在行业投资水平低得不可持续，我们仍然专注于自己控制的事项，以优化我们的业务。
Vonage remains foundational to build out a global platform for network APIs. This is critical for the digitalization of enterprises and society, and will drive future growth in the telecoms industry. We recorded an impairment charge in Q2, as market growth in the current business has slowed, and we must now refocus on improving performance.
Vonage仍然是构建全球网络API平台的基础。这对于企业和社会的数字化至关重要，并将推动电信行业的未来增长。由于当前业务的市场增长放缓，我们在第二季度记录了减值费用，我们现在必须重新关注改善业绩。
Our results highlight our competitiveness, and we will continue to take proactive steps to position the business for longer-term success. We expect market conditions to remain challenging this year, as the pace of India investments slow, however our sales will benefit during the second half from contract deliveries in North America."
我们的业绩凸显了我们的竞争力，我们将继续采取积极措施，为业务的长期成功做好准备。我们预计，由于印度投资步伐放缓，今年的市场状况仍将充满挑战，但是我们的销售将在下半年受益于北美的合同交付。”
