Exhibit 99.1
Vyyo Reports First Quarter 2005 Results
PALO ALTO, Calif., May 12 — Vyyo Inc. (Nasdaq: VYYO), a global supplier of broadband end-to-end solutions for telephony and high-speed data connections, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2005.
For the first quarter of 2005, Vyyo reported sales of $0.7 million, compared to $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. Loss for the first quarter of 2005 was $6.7 million or $0.44 per share, compared to a loss of $8.5 million, or $0.57 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2004. Loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2005 was $7.0 million, or $0.46 per share, compared to $8.6 million, or $0.57 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2004. The decrease in operating expenses in the first quarter of 2005 is mainly due to an income adjustment of $261,000 from stock based compensation compared to a charge of $1.1 million from stock based compensation in the fourth quarter of 2004. As of March 31, 2005, Vyyo had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $34.3 million.
“The reality is that our industry is under attack from the Telco’s aggressive fiber network builds,” stated Davidi Gilo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Vyyo. He continued, “I believe that our technology, proven to double cable’s downstream bandwidth and increase their network’s upstream bandwidth by 10x, is clearly the best solution for our industry to offensively deploy to halt this competitive threat.”
The Company also announced that Michael Corwin, its President and Chief Operating Officer, will be taking a leave of absence for health reasons. Davidi Gilo will assume his responsibilities. Mr. Gilo stated, “We wish Michael a full and speedy recovery and look forward to his returning to the Company as soon as possible.”

Safe Harbor Statement
Statements made in this press release relating to the future, including those related to the potential for Xtend’s systems to enable (1) voice-grade T-1 service and bandwidth expansion from the existing 860 MHz to 3 GHz; (2) efficient use the 3GHz spectrum in order to deliver incremental 750 MHz for downstream traffic and 500 MHz for upstream traffic; and (3) the cable industry to enhance their networks without a network upgrade, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the current limited visibility available in the telecommunications and broadband access equipment markets; whether Xtend will be able to move from the development stage to deployment and establish commercial relationships with the cable system operators; whether the cable industry will be willing and able to substantially increase the available bandwidth on their networks and do so using Xtend’s alternative technology solution; and other risks set forth in Vyyo’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and in other periodic reports filed by Vyyo with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. Vyyo assumes no duty to update these statements.
