Speaking on this note, Stephen G. Waldis, founder and chief executive officer of Synchronoss said that the fourth quarter was highlighted by revenue and profitability that exceeded their expectations, and it was a strong finish to a record year for Synchronoss.

“We experienced strong transaction volumes related to smartphones and connected devices which led to increased automation rates and much stronger than expected profitability,” Waldis said. “The fourth quarter provided evidence of the operating leverage created by our connect-synch-activate strategy, and we believe it positions us well to scale our business model as we focus on expanding our on-device presence to hundreds of millions of connected devices in the years ahead.”

In the fourth quarter, Synchronoss acquired a privately-held Miyowa (News - Alert) S.A, a provider of social network and messaging software for mobile devices.

Miyowa integrates well with Synchronoss’ ConvergenceNow Plus+ strategy by incorporating the network address book with social networking. Miyowa also expands Synchronoss presence in Europe to help manage and drive anticipated growth in that region of the world with Vodafone (News - Alert), Orange and other customers.
