This excerpt taken from the VRSN 10-Q filed May 8, 2009. Geographic Revenues We operate in the United States; Australia, Japan and Asia Pacific (APAC); Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA); and certain other countries. A comparison of our geographic revenues is presented below:
Revenues are generally attributed to the country of domicile and the respective regions in which our customers are located. Revenues from the United States increased $11.1 million primarily due to increase in revenues from our Naming Services and Authentication Services. Revenues from the EMEA region increased $4.0 million primarily due to increase in revenues from our Naming Services. Revenues from the APAC region increased $3.8 million primarily due to increase in revenues from our Authentication Services. Revenues from Other regions increased $0.8 million primarily due to increase in revenues from our Naming Services and Authentication Services. Mature markets, such as the U.S. and Western Europe, where broadband and e-commerce have seen strong market penetration, may be expected to see consistent incremental growth reflecting the maturity of these markets. We expect to see larger increases in revenues from other EMEA and APAC countries driven by greater growth in international regions, resulting from greater broadband and Internet penetration and expanding e-commerce as electronic means of payment are increasingly adopted. These excerpts taken from the VRSN 10-K filed Mar 3, 2009. Geographic Revenues
A comparison of our geographic revenues is presented below:
Revenues are generally attributed to the respective countries in which our contracting entities are located, which does not necessarily reflect the location of our customers.
2008 compared to 2007: Revenues in the U.S. increased $20.9 million primarily as a result of the increase in the number of active domain names ending in .com and .net, an increase in our .com and .net registry fees in late 2007 and an increase in the installed base of SSL certificates. Revenues in Switzerland increased $106.9 million primarily due to the continued implementation of our global business structure, including contracting through our foreign subsidiaries for services provided to customers located outside the U.S. and Japan. Revenues in Japan increased $7.0 million primarily due to increases in demand for our SSL Certificate Services and IAS. Revenues in Germany decreased $23.8 million due to the divestiture of our majority ownership interest in Jamba in the first quarter of 2007. Revenues from our Other regions increased $3.3 million primarily due to growth in SSL Certificate Services and IAS.
2007 compared to 2006: Revenues in the U.S. increased $54.1 million primarily as a result of the increase in the number of active domain names ending in .com and .net coupled with an increase in the installed base of SSL certificates. Revenues in Switzerland increased $62.7 million primarily due to the continued implementation of our global business structure, including contracting through our foreign subsidiaries for services provided to customers located outside the U.S. and Japan. Revenues in Japan increased $2.5 million primarily due to increases in demand for our SSL Certificate Services and IAS. Revenues in Germany decreased $261.6 million due to the divestiture of our majority ownership interest in Jamba in the first quarter of 2007. Revenues from our Other regions increased $7.0 million due to growth in IAS.
Mature markets, such as the U.S. and Western Europe, where broadband and e-commerce have seen strong market penetration, may be expected to see decreasing incremental growth rates reflecting the maturity of these markets. We expect to see larger increases in revenues from Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Australia, Japan and Asia Pacific (APAC) driven by greater growth in international regions, resulting from greater broadband and Internet penetration and expanding e-commerce as electronic means of payment are increasingly adopted.
