“VocalTec Changes Name to magicJack VocalTec Ltd”
A very small preliminary test sale of magicJackPLUS yields encouraging results
West Palm Beach, FL, and Netanya, Israel – May 20, 2011 – VocalTec Communications Ltd. (Nasdaq: CALL), the company that invented voice over IP (VoIP) and sold over seven million magicJacks®, announced today it has officially changed its name to magicJack VocalTec Ltd. from VocalTec Communications Ltd. after approval by shareholders in late April and the Israel Registrar of Companies in May. The company’s new CUSIP (Committee of Uniform Security Identification Procedures) number is M6787E 101.
This new name leverages the popularity and brand recognition of the company’s flagship consumer product, the magicJack, as well as the historic value of the inventor of VoIP and intellectual property of VocalTec. This change comes almost one year after the merger of YMax Corporation, the original parent company of magicJack, and VocalTec and represents the completion of a transition to unite these brands and move from a private to public company.
The company has performed a very small sales test of their upcoming product, magicJackPLUS, using one of the forms of direct sales. With a sampling of only 200 new magicJackPLUS devices sold, efforts were up to twice as efficient in dollars spent per sale by magicJack VocalTec. “While encouraging, this is too small of a test to bank on and we might find it harder to sell the new magicJackPLUS than the original magicJack. The company will continue to test and keep investors informed of the progress. We are hoping to introduce magicJackPLUS in early July and at the same time introduce magicJack App for the computer, iPhone® and iPad®,” said magicJack VocalTec CEO Dan Borislow.
magicJack VocalTec will continue to be traded as the symbol CALL on the NASDAQ stock market. For now, the company’s web sites remain www.vocaltec.com, and www.magicjack.com to buy the magicJack.
