Boom bei Internet-Telefonie-Titeln

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(©BörseGo - http://www.boerse-go.de)
Der neue Kaufrausch für Aktien, die in den USA Internet-Telefondienste anbieten wollen, hat sich weiter fortgesetzt. Angeheizt wurde der neuerliche Boom heute von einem Artikel im Wall Street Journal. Dabei war spekuliert worden, inwiefern die Zukunft der Festnetz-Telefonie möglicherweise doch dem Internet gehöre. Zumindest würden etablierte Telefonkonzerne derzeit ebenfalls Dienste entwickeln, die über das Internet laufen würden.

8X8 kletterten heute bislang um weitere 12,87 Prozent auf 7,63 Dollar nach oben. Deltathree legten um 10,82 Prozent auf 4,20 Dollar zu, VocalTec schossen sogar um 34,74 Prozent aufwärts auf 4,20 Dollar.

VoIP Takes Off: Equipment Market Grew 21% in 2003 and Is Projected to Grow 305% to $5 Billion in 2007

BOSTON, Massachusetts, February 23, 2004—Worldwide revenue for next gen voice products totaled $338 million in 4Q03, a 31% increase over 3Q03, as vendors benefited from a surge of budget clearing and overall trend to VoIP, according to Infonetics Research’s quarterly worldwide market share and forecast service, Next Gen Voice Products. After dropping 28% in 2002, the market returned to a growth phase, growing a solid 21% in 2003. Annual revenue is projected to grow 305% between 2003 and 2007 to $5 billion, representing a CAGR of 42%.

“During the past four months, there have been many voice over IP customer wins—and more importantly, service rollouts—from top tier carriers, including AT&T, Bell Canada, BT, France Telecom, Qwest, SBC, Telus, and Verizon,” said Infonetics Research’s Kevin Mitchell, lead analyst of the report. “Some of these moves are baby steps, but it shows that VoIP is in their plans and creates momentum, which can help make the second half of this year and 2005 solid investment periods as carriers ramp up subscribers and service revenue.”

“Despite important rollouts at the very end of the year, the voice application server market did not live up to vendors` or our expectations in 2003; we basically saw a repeat of 2002,” said Matthias Machowinski, co-author of the report. “However, now that carriers have begun publicly unveiling and marketing hosted IP telephony services that have been in development for the past 12 months, this segment is finally positioned for a take-off in 2004.”

2003 Market Highlights


Worldwide media gateway revenue increased 13% to $745 million
Worldwide softswitch revenue was up 31% to $380 million
Worldwide session border controller revenue increased significantly to $29 million, up 359% from 2002
Worldwide voice application server revenue was down 9% for the year to $33.7 million, but was up 19% from the previous quarter
