Riverbed Technology (RVBD)

We have a history of losses and we may not maintain profitability in the future.

We achieved profitability for the first time in the three months ended March 31, 2007. We experienced a net loss of $15.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. As of September 30, 2007, our accumulated deficit was $37.4 million. We may incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, including those discussed in other risk factors and factors that we cannot foresee. We expect to make significant expenditures related to the development of our business, including expenditures to hire additional personnel relating to sales and marketing and technology development. In addition, as a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We would have to generate and sustain significantly increased revenue to maintain profitability. Our revenue growth trends in prior periods are not likely to be sustainable, and we may not achieve sufficient revenue to maintain profitability.
