Marc Lefar, CEO of Vonage, said: We improved our financial position throughout 2008, and for the first time in Vonage’s history, delivered adjusted operating profit and positive cash from operations for a full year. Vonage also delivered record level pre-marketing operating income reflecting increasing levels of cash generated by the existing customer base. This progress occurred despite the uncertainty and challenges of the current economy.
