iBasis (NASDAQ: IBAS), a KPN affiliate, today announced that it will report fourth quarter 2007 financial results on Monday, February 4, 2008, after the closing of the stock market. The Company will host a conference call that same day at 5:00 p.m. ET, led by Ofer Gneezy, its President and CEO, to discuss the results, progress on the integration of iBasis and KPN Global Carrier Services, and expectations for 2008.
In the past, iBasis has announced quarterly results before the market opening. The change to an after-market-close release of financial results will enable effective coordination of financial results announcements with Royal KPN N.V., the national carrier of the Netherlands and majority shareholder of iBasis. KPN is scheduled to announce its results on Tuesday, February 5, 2008.
