Ribbon Communications Inc., a global provider of converged communications software and network solutions to Service Providers, Enterprises, and critical infrastructure sectors, announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2020.
Revenue for first quarter of 2020 was $158 million compared with $119 million in first quarter of 2019, an increase of 33%. Approximately $30 million of the year-over-year revenue increase was attributable to the acquisition of ECI Telecom Group, Ltd. (ECI), which closed on March 3, 2020.

“We are pleased with our first quarter sales results. In the face of very difficult global conditions for our customers and employees arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, we achieved organic revenue growth of eight percent compared with the first quarter of last year, driven by strong demand for our communications software as our customers responded to increased traffic on their networks,” said Bruce McClelland, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ribbon Communications. “We saw an increase in session software deployments to facilitate remote work and Ribbon’s multi-year investments in fully virtualized software and cloud products allowed us to rapidly deploy solutions for our Service Provider and Enterprise customers.”
