Openet's CEO Niall Norton said "Openet had planned to be “IPO ready in 2011” but this would be delayed due to a lawsuit filed by Amdocs [here], a much larger Israeli competitor, in the US courts .. the company expected to increase revenues in 2010 to around €75M .. If a flotation is delayed the company would consider going to its shareholders for bridging finance .. Openet has developed a very successful relationship with Cisco [here and here] but it has similar relationships with IBM and Juniper Networks. IBM yesterday highlighted Openet as one of its key partners in its strategy regarding cloud computing for service providers."
