P-Com Raises Additional Working Capital Reaffirms Second Quarter
Guidance CAMPBELL, Calif., June 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- P-Com,
Inc. (OTCBB: PCOM), a worldwide provider of broadband wireless
access products and services to carriers, commercial enterprises
and government agencies, today announced that it has raised
approximately $2.3 million in equity based financing through a
special offer made to existing holders of P-Com common stock
purchase warrants. When combined with cash proceeds received from
the restructuring of its Italian operations announced on June 15,
2004, P-Com has raised approximately $3.0 million in additional
working capital. "The completion of the offer to holders of its
outstanding warrants achieved several important objectives --
enabling P-Com to raise working capital while decreasing the number
of fully-diluted shares outstanding, reducing the number of
outstanding convertible securities, and further streamlining the
company's capital structure," said P-Com General Counsel and Acting
CFO Dan Rumsey. "This transaction also further strengthens our
balance sheet and enables P-Com to fully execute its 2004 operating
plan." Over the past two years, P-Com has executed a comprehensive
financial restructuring that eliminated a substantial portion of
its debt, substantially cut operating expenses and refocused its
operations. In April, P-Com reported its fourth consecutive quarter
of increased revenue and anticipates that this trend will continue
for the second quarter ending June 30, 2004. For specific details
related to the special offer to holders of P-Com's outstanding
warrants, please refer to P-Com's Form 8-K, which will be filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. About P-Com, Inc.
