−Removed: a strategy of outsourcing rather than internally developing our hardware product chipsets, which are application-specific integrated
−Removed: circuits that form the technology base for our modems.
−Removed: By outsourcing the chipset technology, we are able to concentrate our research
−Removed: and development resources on modem system design, leverage the extensive research and development capabilities of our chipset suppliers,
−Removed: and reduce our development time and associated costs and risks.
−Removed: As a result of this approach, we are able to quickly develop new products
−Removed: while maintaining a relatively low level of research and development expense as a percentage of net sales.
−Removed: We also outsource aspects
−Removed: of our manufacturing to contract manufacturers as a means of reducing our costs of production, and to provide us with greater flexibility

−Removed: our gross margin for a given product depends on a number of factors, including the type of customer to whom we are selling.
−Removed: margin for products sold to retailers tends to be higher than for some of our other customers;

−Removed: costs associated with products sold to retailers also tend to be higher.
−Removed: Minim’s sales to certain countries are currently handled
−Removed: by a single master distributor for each country that handles the support and marketing costs within the country.
