SANTA CLARA, Calif., -- July 27, 2005 -- 8x8, Inc. (NASDAQ:EGHT), provider of Packet8 broadband voice over internet protocol (VoIP) and videophone communications services, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended June 30, 2005.

Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 were $6 million, compared with $2.1 million for the same period of fiscal 2005 and $3.9 million for the previous quarter. The net loss for the quarter was $5.1 million, or $0.10 per share, compared with a net loss of $7 million, or $0.14 per share, for the previous quarter and a net loss of $2.6 million or $0.07 per share for the same period last year.

Total revenues for the Company's Packet8 VoIP service and related equipment sales increased to $5.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2006, compared with $3.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, an increase of 50%. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had approximately 73,000 Packet8 subscriber lines in service as compared to approximately 57,000 on March 31, 2005, a 28% increase.

At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006, 8x8's balance sheet, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash, totaled $24.9 million. During the quarter, the Company made significant inventory purchases in anticipation of demand and expenditures related to the Company's successful compliance with the internal control reporting requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act for fiscal 2005.

"8x8 revenues are up for the sixth consecutive quarter and are at their highest quarterly level since 2000," said Bryan R. Martin, 8x8's Chairman & CEO. "We have seen significant growth in all areas of our business, particularly the Packet8 VideoPhone and Virtual Office services, both of which offer unique and compelling price and feature advantages for residential and small business customers. We are maintaining our focus on providing the best possible voice and video communication services to our base of loyal Packet8 subscribers, and believe that the growth of this customer base depends on the continued provision of unique, differentiated services and IP applications, attractive customer value propositions and outstanding customer support."
