- Veraz Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRAZ), a leading global provider of IP softswitch and media gateway solutions, today announced that it will delay the filing of its Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008. On May 7, 2008, Veraz announced that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had notified Veraz that it is conducting a confidential informal inquiry and that Veraz's Board of Directors had appointed a special committee to oversee an independent investigation into the matters raised by the SEC informal inquiry. We are continuing to investigate the matters raised by the SEC informal inquiry. We are not currently aware of any facts that would cause us to change our results of operations for either the quarter ended March 31, 2008 or any prior period. We currently anticipate filing our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q within the period permitted by Rule 12b-25(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
