Thank you operator, and thank you all for joining us today. Earlier this morning we issued a press release, stating our second quarter results for 2020. We are pleased with our second quarter financial performance, which was in line with our full year growth plans as we increased revenue, continuing to invest in R&D and improved our bottom-line. As you may have seen, total revenue for the third quarter of 2020 were $2.2 million and we remained on track to achieve our growth plans for 2020. Based on the current industry conditions and our visibility, we are reaffirming our full year 2020 revenue guidance range of $35 million to $38 million. As such a full impact of COVID-19 is still as uncertain, we remain confident that the telecom industry will continue to grow resilient through this pandemic as people rely on telcos to keep business connected and families entertain in the era of social distancing and lockdowns. We expect that 5G will continue to incrementally ramp up in the later part of 2020 and during 2021. We view this operator transformation as a key opportunity for RADCOM that we are well-positioned to take advantage of, as the market evolves. At the beginning of August, there were already 92 commercial 5G networks worldwide. We see deployments progress and the telecom industry move forward despite the challenges of COVID-19. In the U.S., AT&T recently announced that its 5G network was available nationwide, which is powered by its network cloud, enabling cost savings and innovation and speed. We continue to have healthy relationship with AT&T as we deliver cutting-edge software releases and provide support for the evolution of their cloud network. In Japan, Rakuten launched full commercial 4G services in April and already announced that they plan to launch 5G next month. Rakuten is moving fast with its cloud platform, which is already been packaged to sell other operators and enterprises in Japan and worldwide. Network transformations are multi-stage process and we are currently at the early stage where operators have selected their network equipment providers. Some operators are starting to move to the next step and roll out services. Still, once operators begin to deploy advanced used cases over 5G, assurance vendors will be evaluated and then selected. In these 5G networks, operators will need to upgrade their existing service assurance solutions to cloud-native solutions as they will require proactive, real-time insights and dynamic solutions. We are starting to see initial customer requirement requests for next-generation capabilities and cloud-native features, as operators begin to plan for assurance vendor selection. We are excited to have announced the launch of RADCOM ACE last week, our new automated assurance solution for 5G. This announcement is a significant milestone in our multi-year journey that started with the transition to virtualization. I am proud of the team’s accomplishment in reaching this critical milestone that position us well as the leading assurance solution for 5G. RADCOM AACE is the outcome of our product vision to provide operators with the automated assurance solution for 5G. RADCOM’s innovation software will automatically monitor the operators’ services, pinpoint critical issues and help resolve them. Adhering to new paradigm for assurance capabilities, RADCOM ACE will help operators accelerate their network transformations by continually monitor the customer experience and provide tools to rapidly optimize the network to ensure smooth migration for the operators’ customers to 5G. Combining cloud-native technologies, with cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning to deliver real-time network intelligence, RADCOM ACE significantly reduces the total cost of ownership for assurance. This is provided by creating expense savings for operators through their automated optimization of their network, as well as decreased CapEx requirements through our containerized software efficiency and cloud-native capabilities. In bringing RADCOM ACE to the market, we took advantage of our use of cloud-native expertise, as well as our close working relationship with some of the leading telecom operators in the industry today to design a solution for 5G and the advanced use case of the future. \ Currently, we are involved in multiple 5G opportunities and trials at selected customers. We believe that RADCOM ACE answers the needs of operators for automated assurance solutions and are ready to deliver RADCOM ACE to operators as they move forward with their assurance investments. We are pleased with our second quarter performance as we continue to execute on our plans, and invest in R&D to support our customers’ needs. The transformation to 5G is a key opportunity for RADCOM that we are well-positioned to take advantage of, as more and more operators make their transition. Given our engagement with industry-leading customers on cutting-edge projects that utilize our cloud-native solutions, we are in a strong position to benefit from this network transformation. With that, I would like to turn the call over to Amir Hai, our CFO, who will discuss the financial results in details. Amir, please go ahead.

Thank you, Eyal, and good morning, everyone. In this quarter, we maintained revenue growth and together with healthy gross margins, as well as reduction in operational expenses mainly due to COVID-19, and as a result improved our bottom-line. Now, please turn to Slide 3 for our financial highlights. To help you understand the results, I will be referring mainly to non-GAAP numbers, which exclude share-based compensation. We ended the second quarter of 2020 with revenue of $9.2 million, an increase from $8.5 million in the second quarter of 2019. Our gross margin on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis was 77% in the second quarter of 2020. We expect full year non-GAAP gross margin to be at the similar level as previous year. Please note that our gross margin can fluctuate depending on with the product mix. Our gross R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2020 on a non-GAAP basis were $4.5 million, a slight increase of $100,000 compared to the second quarter of 2019. During the quarter, we received grants from the Israel Innovation Authority for the first half of 2020 for $572,000. Sales and marketing expenses for the second quarter of 2020 were $2.2 million on a non-GAAP basis, compared to $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease is mainly related to reduction in travel expenses due to COVID-19. G&A expenses for the second quarter of 2020, on a non-GAAP basis were $804,000, compared to $754,000 in the second quarter of 2019. Operating income on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2020 was $102,000, compared to an operating loss of $715,000 for the second quarter of 2019. On a GAAP basis, as you can see on Slide 5, our net loss for the second quarter for 2020 was $200,000 or a net loss of $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $900,000 or [Technical Difficulty] - diluted share for the second quarter of 2019. Net income for the second quarter of 2020 on a non-GAAP basis was $200,000 or net income of $0.02 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $400,000 or a net loss of $0.03 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2019. At the end of the second quarter, our headcount was 273. Turning to the balance sheet. As you can see on Slide 9, our cash, cash equivalents and short-term bank deposits at the end of the second quarter of 2020 was $66 million. We believe that our strong balance sheet provides us with the ability to execute the opportunities ahead of us and exhaust the ongoing global uncertainty. That ends our prepared remarks. I will now turn the call back to the operator for your questions.

[Operator Instructions] The first question is from Alex Henderson of Needham & Company. Please go ahead.

Thanks and congratulations on turning to profit in the quarter. It’s quite an achievement. A couple of simple questions. The commentary on the NRE, it sounds like you are expecting roughly 500 in NRE for the year now. Is that a reasonable conclusion?

Hi, Alex. I will take this question. It’s Amir. Basically, we received the approval from the Israeli Innovation Authority of $1.3 million for all 2020. So, that’s what we recognize an income of 572 and the rest would be the second half of the year.

I see. Okay. And then, given the very strong results in the quarter, obviously your gross margin was, I believe is due to a software mix. Are you expecting the margins in the back half to revert back towards the 70% level? Is that a reasonable expectation?

I would take that also. Yes, it’s a reasonable expectation. The – as you see in the last quarter, the gross margin was around 63% and in average, it’s around 70% and we think basically, when we look at the year end and take it annually, this would be approximately the gross margin between 70% to 72%, 73%.

Alright. So, under that scenario, it doesn’t sound like, although you were popped up to profitability here that we should be expecting profitability again in the back half more like breakeven-ish type numbers?

Yes, basically, our global expenses on an annual basis is around $40 million. So, and of course, there is some cost savings regarding the COVID-19, but this is the number that we will be breakeven at.

Okay. And then, just wanted to talk a little bit about the trajectory in the back half on expenses. Can you remind us given the shekel has had a big – very steep decline over the March, April timeframe and then completely rebounded? How does that impact you guys’ numbers?

It doesn’t impact, but the second is – between – we can see the second quarter of 2020 in between 3.4 to 3.5. This is the range that we are looking at. This is the range that basically was taken in our assumptions regarding the expenses.

Were you able to take any advantage of that steep decline? Or is that – was that already locked in?

It’s locked in but basically towards in Q1, most of it and it’s locked in.

I see. Okay. And then, just on the technology side, if I could, obviously, this is a pretty big news event with the ACE product with lot of cloud-native architectures and there are really significant improvements in design. So, as we look at that, the question comes up – kind of please, two questions related, one, does it change the timeline for evaluations from potential customers, because they are now looking at a different architecture than what they had been looking at before? And two, does it accelerate – is it reasonable to think that the people to be accelerating this transition to a cloud-native architecture or will you be carrying both the traditional architecture and the cloud-native architecture? How do we think about the adoption pattern given this major new product announcement?

The – so, first of all, good morning, Alex. I think it’s definitely an exciting time for us and we are very pleased with this critical milestone of launching the RADCOM ACE, which a very advanced cloud-native containerized architecture product. This is an outcome of hard work of multiple years and it’s part of our long-term strategy to focus on the 5G market and its needs. It’s aligned with our plans in a way that we talked in the previous calls that 5G is about to start – I mean, in the service assurance space, second part of 2020 and primarily in 2021while the market is expecting to get to peak in 2022, 2023. So, I think it’s a great timing. We are now in a - really early adaptive stage. When we start to see the first operators globally announcing they are moving to the next stage with their 5G networks and starting to impacting their 5G core, which is exactly the indication that this is followed by investments on a service assurance solution. While you are going through those 5G implementation in the – including the 5G core, and building it on the cloud-native technology which a consensus every day. You will not be longer be able to use the previous architectures. You need something new that is containerized, that is built to the 5G requirements and this is why we were building the last few years to make sure we are ready on time and we are very pleased that we meet this milestone. Now about your question in terms of the timing of the investment, I think this is in line with the operators’ readiness on selections of tools. I would say that, from initial trials we were doing and we just launched this last week, so – but we already introduced these technologies to some of our selective customers. And the feedback is very exciting. So, we believe that it’s going to be in line with the plan. Some operators are still looking on 4G and still looking on virtualization technology of the current stage I would say, but the early adopters of 5G are moving already to this cloud-native architecture. So, I think both solution and I would say, this complements our current stack and allow operators to have end-to-end visibility into its 4G and 5G network whether using the software or up to the cloud-native latest and greatest architecture that operators are adopting today.

I am pretty sure, I know the answer this, but is the competition able to deliver a cloud-based architecture? Are they still well behind you guys? And I’ll see the part after that. Thanks.

Yes. We believe that our deep knowledge on virtualization being engaged with top players believe virtualization in the last four, five years is really that’s a clear advantage in this space. We were waiting for the virtualization technology to start pick up pace and we are very excited that in 5G, everything is going to be virtualized. So, we believe our deep experience including very large scalable implementation in virtualization is going to come to play once we are starting to implement 5G. So, yes, it’s definitely an advantage for us.

Great. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Alex.

Your next question is from Matt Stotler with William Blair. Please go ahead.

Hey guys. Congrats on the results and thank you for taking my questions. I guess, first, I would like to start with – it’s - obviously results are better than expected in the quarter. It’s good to see. Could you maybe just quantify or speak to what you are saying in terms of the ongoing impacts of COVID on customer spending or customer conversations in the quarter? And any change or how that behavior evolved as you kind of move from the March, April timeframe through May and into June and July?

Yes. COVID-19 has an effect of course in Q2. We mentioned it in a couple hundred thousand dollars in this quarter. But basically the selling were in the travel expenses and of course, expenses on conferences and et cetera. Moving forward, and due to the reality that we are facing, we don’t see any increase. Believe that we can keep the saving going forward, most of the saving going forward in the second half year.

Maybe adding to that, Matt, if we take the market perspective, overall, the telecom is continuing with its plans to migrate to 5G. We are seeing more and more operators taking the decision and starting to invest in the 5G radio frequencies. As mentioned, 92 carriers already announced the – are starting to launch initial 5G implementations. We are seeing that despite COVID-19, the transformation to 5G continues. Overall, it is going as planned. So, we don’t see any significant effect and we are happy to see that the journey to 5G is strategic to the telcos and they feel this is something they need to continue and implement. And we actually see some acceleration in some operators in terms of the 5G implementation, which is very encouraging. Obviously, the full effect of COVID-19 and the overall atmosphere is not – is making telcos investment in long-term projects in some at least. But, from what we see today, we are seeing very positive signs on the investments in 5G.

Right. Right. That’s good to hear. And then, obviously the revenue result was better than expected in the quarter. While you guys reiterated down 11% growth in the midpoint, obviously, there is still some inherent lack of visibility just given the environment that we are all operating in, but can you just refresh us on the assumptions that you are baking into your full year projections?

So, our – as we reiterated, we are still confident with our guidance of $35 million to $38 million. We are happy to continue and execute our plans and looking on a goal field. We are now in August, so there is still few months to go to complete the year. But we have very good visibility already with the contracts, with the engagements we have, which allow us to reaffirm this guidance. We are very busy these days already to continue and build an increase the buying plan for 2021 as we know, there are lots of opportunity in our space on a long-term processes and we are still in confident on the year, but already busy building next year pipeline. So, overall, it’s a mix of existing customers, expansions within existing customers and penetrating into new accounts that is mainly targeted into revenue of 2021.

Right. Right. That’s helpful. And busy is obviously very good. One question to follow-up on the RADCOM ACE announcement and it obviously gets you this released last week. You mentioned a number of kind of early trials ongoing. How should we be thinking about kind of time to throw new contributions to these new solutions or for the solution and kind of your expectation for what, the trial period might look like or how to think of how this kind of goes into revenue in the back half of this year and into 2021 will be helpful.

We commented all along that the timing for the 5G assurance solution is likely to be late in 2020 and primarily in 2021. So, this year is mainly about building the engagements, releasing the product that we are very excited to release. And securing our contract towards 2021. So, our 2020 numbers are still without any upside from the 5G. But things could happen and accelerate also these results. Exact timing is obviously uncertain. It’s - things could happen a bit earlier or a bit later. But I would say that the – as analysts predicts the early adopters will select their solutions in the next six to twelve months and this is something that we want to take part of. We have the privilege to be working with some of the most advanced carriers that are investing in 5G and we want to leverage our experience in virtualization and our ability to deliver those – this exciting technology to take part of those early adopters’ deals. Obviously, from the time we will – we introduced until if it goes to the revenue, there is some few more months. So this is why it’s likely more to happen in the – to effect and be part of our 2021 revenue.

Right. It’s very helpful. Thank you. Just a couple of quick additional questions from me. Rakuten obviously launched in the 4G network in April, you mentioned, you expect to launch 5G next month. Any – so, in terms of what that contract looks like as we move to 5G that tail into revenue for you that customers that should we expect that to increase your revenue opportunity to that customer? Or should we expect that to be kind of flattish for the remaining quarters of the year?

So, 5G reduced an upsize on most of our customers as this newly launched product is not something that anyone already purchase. So, any new deal for 5G would be an upside on top of the revenues we will get from our accounts. And this is why – moving forward, 5G brings an opportunity, but it’s also primarily an opportunity to penetrate to new accounts that are currently evaluating what is – who is the right partner for them to the 5G era.

Right. Got it. And then, last one for me, will just be, any update on AT&T? And you mentioned a roll out of 5G coverage in the U.S. over this summer is something you talked about it last quarter, as well. Just any update on progress with that customer and any expansion opportunities that you are seeing going forward?

So, as we mentioned, AT&T, like others, without getting into specifics is busy and they are definitely very vocal about their 5G lens. And they are part of our target audience for this RADCOM ACE. And I think this is really where our technology advantage would come to play. We obviously used a lot of the inputs of our existing customers in order to build and design our new 5G solution. And we are exciting to have it launched and start to work with both, again, new customers and our existing customers moving forward into implementation of these technologies in their network. I still want to reiterate that while we see operators announce their 5G and 5G investments and some even nationwide, most of them are still in a very early stage in their 5G investment, primarily focused on the radio side. And just I think this was a that we saw first announcement of selecting the vendors for their 5G core, which is the main driver for investment in assurance. So we are seeing progress, but we need to understand where are we in the timeline. And we are now moving through the next step. But there is still time until we would see implementations of service assurance solutions in 5G. It’s – as I indicated, it’s expected to happen late in 2020, primarily 2021.

Got it. Very helpful. Thanks again for taking my questions.

Sure.

[Operator Instructions] The next question is from Abba Horowitz of OSP. Please go ahead.

Hi. Very nice quarter. Thank you. I was wondering about the cash. How much of the cash increase for the quarter came from free cash flow? And how much came from, I guess, government grants, if any?

Most of the cash increase was due to the free cash flow.

Okay. Wonderful. And I was wondering, Eyal, if you could characterize over the next six to twelve months, what size of potential book of business for RADCOM is there? As you said in the call that, you see at the end of 2020, that they are going to start to open up in terms of 5G. I am wondering, what does this mean in terms of, versus what you have now? What does that mean for RADCOM? And are there expectations that you would penetrate a certain percent of that market over the next six to twelve months?

So, I think that RADCOM as of today is still has a lot of potential of growth within the markets. We are looking on the telecom industry and there are very few to none selections of 5G assurance providers worldwide. So, the market opportunity is ahead of us. But as we know, telecom industries and selection process and new technology adoption takes time and it’s not something that everything will happen over the next few quarters. It’s a journey that we are – we started a year ago in terms of 5G, and we are expecting to continue in the next few years to come. I believe that we have great opportunity both with our existing customers, and with potential new customers. The rate of adoption is really dependent on the selection process of the different operators and it’s very hard to predict. But the advantage of RADCOM is that, every new win and every new expansion could be a very significant upside on our revenue numbers. So, it’s still something that we are monitoring and anticipating and once we get closer to the end of 2020, we are expecting to a better visibility into 2021 and we would share our guidance then.

Is there a way for you to – can you tell us how many deals – potential deals are in the pipeline today versus a quarter ago? Are you seeing that build right now? Or is it too early to see a build?

It’s not information we are sharing, but I would just say that we are seeing good indications overall on 5G market maturing up, both coming from the announcement of the operators and the feedbacks we are getting from the customer and from the market about where they are and about our technology. So, overall, we are seeing positive progress towards the plan is aligned with what we expected to happen when we planned 2020. It’s very positive in light of the COVID-19, which we know in some industries and some companies are reporting slowdown. We don’t see any slowdown, which is very, very good indication. And I think the overall, most important part is that, the journey to 5G continues. The virtualization and cloud-native is a consensus. This is exactly where we excel. This is where we invested all of our technology. And we believe we are well positioned now to address this market.

Okay. Thank you. Final question. Anybody that’s launching 5G must they have a solution similar to the BRADCOM or RADCOM solution itself in order for that 5G network to be launched? Must they have something like RADCOM in place?

So – yes, yes. So, if you launch your radio, if you launch your 5G, as I mentioned, if you invest, most operators start with investing only on the radio side and they still use their 4G network core in order to support this new ideal connection. This is the stage we are as an industry. But once we move to the next stage of 5G, after the initial launch and want to grow more strategically with that, they need to upgrade their network core. In this stage, most of the carriers - very big vast majority of the carrier will select a solution of service assurance in order to assure that they get visibility, otherwise, they are transparent to what’s going in the network and it will be very hard to support the launch – very hard to maintain the customer experience. This is why – as I mentioned, this market opportunity is still ahead of us.

Okay. So it’s not a matter of if, but rather when, really, because at some point, they will have to transition to something like a RADCOM system?

Exactly.

Okay. Thanks very much and thank you for the quarter.

Thank you.

There are no further questions at this time. This concludes RADCOM Ltd’s second quarter 2020 results conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may go ahead and disconnect.
