"And Anadigics is not exactly a multi-billion company" - why do you percieve that to be an issue?

...In order to improve its profitability, Anadigics had initiated corporate restructuring activities to reduce operating costs and better align its resources in accordance with the evolving demand for infrastructure-based products. In addition, the infrastructure-targeted products have a higher revenue and profit margin than mobile-targeted products. As such, Anadigics has continually reduced its fixed costs by unwinding production of RF (radio frequency) power amplifier and front-end products for a variety of mobile applications including handsets, tablets and data cards in the cellular 3G/4G and WiFi markets. The company expects revenue from the Infrastructure segment to be 75% of the aggregate revenue by 2015.

As global demand for high-data-rate connectivity to the Internet increases exponentially, demand for high-performance infrastructure-based products is set to rise as well. In order to capitalize on this revenue potential, Anadigics is aligning its R&D investment focus and in-house manufacturing capacity toward a higher mix of infrastructure products.

The restructuring activities reduced operating expenses by 4.6% sequentially in the reported quarter to $7.7 million. This was achieved through workforce reduction to eliminate redundant manufacturing operations and diligent execution of infrastructure-based business model. Moving forward, all these measures are expected to strengthen its presence in key infrastructure markets and continue reducing fixed costs over a period of time.
