“As expected, our first quarter results were negatively impacted by specific vendor issues in our Catalyst Telecom business unit,” said Mike Baur, CEO, ScanSource, Inc. “In addition, we experienced overall slower revenue growth in most of our business units. While this is disappointing, ScanSource continues to deliver strong profits and cash flow in this challenging economic environment. Our proven business model and strong balance sheet will allow us to continue investing in specific growth areas.”
