Thank you, Jeff. We continue to make good progress in real [ph] Crexendo year-over-year. Our second quarter 2016 hosted historic communications services revenue compared to second quarter 2015; grew 35%. That's very solid growth. I think it's equally important that with -- that substantial year-over-year increase, our costs in second quarter 2016 over a second quarter 2015 were flat. This trend of controlling costs while increasing revenue is very important for the future of the business. We continue to increase our backlog, which is also a good trend. I have discussed what I believe is our secret formula that our entire sales process [technical difficulty] with engineering. This means we are particularly in depth at providing solutions that our enterprise customers need and want. Enterprise customers with multi-location installations do have a different sales and revenue cycle than smaller customers. There is a longer process and negotiating determining solutions closing the sales and installing enterprise customers than other customers, in addition there is a longer leg time with sales to recognizing revenue. These delays could cause some variance in the results from quarter to quarter depending on the size and complexity of the installation. We are working to aggressively add smaller customers which have a similarly shorter sales and installation cycle, in that regard we are tirelessly working on a campaign to add qualified dealer partners, our dealer partner channel does an outstanding job of selling smaller deal, we are also adding inside sales associates whose job is to work the phones and have call up head leads for a direct sales team. We are working with an outside agency to improve our marketing and outreach. I expect these actions to start to show results by the fourth quarter of this year. I believe we are still positioned to reach cash flow break-even with GAAP profitability next year, we continue to invest in our engineering and services, we regularly get high marks from our customers, which has resulted in a low customer churn rate. Our phone gets great reviews and our commitment to service excellence is second to none. I talked to our customer regularly and make certain that our team is on the right track, the more people I talk to, the more I am convinced that Crexendo -- I am tongue tied today Crexendo right the cloud solution are in the right position to support customers who are moving there expensive legacy phone service to the cloud. We will continue to grow the business organically and I am always looking for accretive appropriate acquisitions, I remain very confident on our future. With that, I will turn the call over to Ron Vincent, Ron.

Thanks, Steve. Consolidated revenue for the second quarter increased 20% to 2.3 million compared to 1.9 million for the second quarter of the prior year, approximately 83% of that revenue was generated from our host to telecommunication segment, which contributed 1.9 million for the second quarter, that's up 35% as Steve mentioned from 1.4 million contributed in the second quarter of the prior year. Year-to-date consolidated revenue increased 19% to 4.4 million compared to 3.7 million for the same period of the prior year. The telecommunications segment contributed approximately 84% or 3.7 million to the consolidated revenue. While we are pleased with the 20% growth in revenue we are equally as pleased with the operating expenses for the second quarter, now which only increase approximately 20,000 or 2% when compared to the second quarter of the prior year, year-to-date consolidated operating expenses decreased 2% to 6.1 million compared to 6.2 million for the same period of prior year. On a GAAP basis, we reported 778,000 net loss for the second quarter or $0.06 loss for diluted common share compared to a net loss of 1.1 million or $0.08 per diluted common share for the second quarter of the prior year. Year-to-date we reported a net loss of 1.6 million [indiscernible] six months ended June 30 or a loss of $0.12 per share, compared to a net loss of 2.2 million or a loss of $0.18 per diluted common share for the same period of the prior year. Non-GAAP net loss was 523,000 the second quarter or $0.04 per diluted common share compared to a non-GAAP net loss of 734,000 or $0.06 loss per diluted common share for the second quarter of the prior year. Year-to-date the company reported non-GAAP net loss of 1.1 million or a loss of $0.08 per…

Thanks, Ron. We continue to see growth in our telecom revenue, telecom backlog and overall revenue while we continue to decrease expenses and lower our costs, Q2 delivered 4% overall revenue increase quarter-over-quarter and 8% increase in telecom revenue quarter-over-quarter. Our backlog increased to 4% from Q1 and 35% from year-over-year is a good signal that we are building a strong foundation for the future. Our sales bookings were slightly higher than Q1 and are helping accelerate our progress for cash flow breakeven and GAAP profitability. We were able to negotiate some cost savings with our providers that will begin to show results in Q3 and as well we are implementing a cost recovery to offset administrative and taxing fees that should help also improve our margins beginning in Q3 or Q4. We continue to sell larger and multi-location and more complex solution opportunity and saw some nice contributions in those areas from our partner channel, direct sales team during the quarter. We have 14 new partners for the program in Q2 and are excited about the potential contributions from these partners based on their size and market concentration. As we've discussed previously, we are targeting larger and more established partners in our recruiting efforts. These quoting [ph] processes and on-boarding processes may take a little longer with the type of partnership of our size, the end result will be much greater as these large partners will bring as many more opportunities and we have already seen sales production from some of these new partners in the first 60 days. Our news telephone sets that were introduced in Q1 has had a great impact on our sales presentations as the new look and additional feature offering have been greatly received. We now have five Crexendo designed feature-rich affordable options to…

Thank you, Jeff. I have no further comments. So, at this time, Kevin, we will open the call up to questions.

Thank you. [Operator Instructions] We will take our first question from Kevin Dede with Rodman. Go ahead, please.

Hi, Steve.

Good afternoon, Kevin.

Hi, Steve. Thank you. I am great. I am great. And it sounds that you are doing well too. First, I just wanted to thank you very much for hosting the call, and thanks for taking my questions.

You bet.

I was hoping you could talk a little bit to headcount, and how that's compared to the cost side of the equation?

Well, there is a lot of different things that go into the cost side of the equation. Obviously, headcount is one of the biggest. Year-over-year, we have probably reduced our headcount from about 60 or 61 people, down to 55 to 56.

Fifty four-fifty five.

Fifty four-fifty five, so, about a 10%, and that was just normal attrition and we just didn't add in those people. Obviously, if we have a key position that requires us to have somebody, we will replace them, but we won't add any people. We expect to hold that number below 60 the rest of this year and probably most of next year.

Could you talk a little bit about the installation number in the quarter versus last, and maybe even versus March?

Well, that's I can tell you what it was. The trouble is that it's sort of a meaningless number, because sometimes we have bigger installations which makes the number go down and sometimes we have higher installation rate, which -- of smaller deals which makes the number go up, but the more important number is the number of desktops that were installed or the backlog is probably the most reliable. And Ron, what was that backlog number?

The backlog was 15 million or something…

Well, [indiscernible] it's approximately 15.5 million, but how much that increased quarter-over-quarter? We are going through that. It's in the press release.

Okay. So that's the -- but that backlog refers specifically to the hardware side of the business, correct?

No, it does not. It refers to everything; hardware and services. Most of it's made up of services…

Okay.

Because hardware is paid for upfront.

Okay, okay. Right, fair enough. Can you talk to the number of customers, maybe in the hosted business specifically?

Again, it's probably better to talk about desktops.

Okay.

We have about 25 -- actually we have 24,215 desktops, and we also have probably about 10,000 hosted Web sites and another 5,000 or 6,000 mobile devices that are software apps. So altogether, close to 30,000 hosted telephone devices, and about 10,000 hosted Web sites, 8,000 to 10,000.

So, I am just kind of trying to figure out how to look at different metrics, to even try to get to something, I guess like an ARPU number, just to try to monitor your progress in terms of the [indiscernible] have with each customer?

We are still seeing a decrease in our web services, which was planned. We discontinued [indiscernible] in July of 2011. The bulk of the decrease has occurred and it will become smaller and smaller as a percentage of sales as we go forward. We looked at selling that business, but quite frankly, we determine that we would get more by just continuing to receive the revenue as it going down. At some point in time, probably a $1 million a year is where those stabilize, about 200 or 250 per quarter, 100,000 in revenue per quarter, and then it will stabilize, then you should see all of our growth, and the most important thing is going to be cloud hosted telecommunications. So, I would say that the backlog number is going to be your most reliable indicator of how we are doing.

Okay, fair enough. And then, I guess I was sort of looking that a way to characterize the customer base, specifically, and I was wondering if you think you might be able to get…

And desktops, Kevin, would be the way to look at it, but there is also additional revenue we get to bursting unified communicator. There are several features we charge additionally for it, but the best way to…

Right. That's why I thought like an ARPU number might be helpful at some point.

I'm not sure what you are saying? What kind of number?

Oh, the service providers use an average revenue per customer…

Oh, an average per customer, average per desktop…

Right.

Yes, I think it's probably close to $20 or $22 per month. Maybe you could call Ron Vincent offline and we will get the exact number for you.

Yes. The key is the trend, and with the growing you know, telecom cloud business, you would expect that number to increase?

That's correct. No, we not only expect it to increase, it is an increasing.

Okay. And then just lastly for me, help me characterize the cash flow expectations for the balance of the year, what you think your revenue number would be -- would need to be to get you to breakeven and maybe you could talk a little bit on the trajectory to get there.

Well, we are on the right trajectory. Historically for the last two years we have increased the Q3 and the Q4 sales over Q1 sequentially. So we expect a little bit of a hockey stick going into the second half of the year. That plus the fees that Jeff Korn talked about in Doug's presentation, these are 911 type fees and other fees that -- we had to change some of our software in our billing platform in order to recover those, we should start recovering those in September or October, which should be in the range of $8,000 or $10,000 a month. So that's almost like a month of additional sales. That was the trajectory of our sales in Q3 and Q2, should get us to breakeven some time next year, and I am [indiscernible] you know, breakeven is one thing that you are talking about on a cash basis, and GAAP earnings is another thing, but the breakeven will probably occur maybe in the middle of third quarter and the GAAP revenue or profitability should occur by the end of next year or the first quarter of '18.

Okay. So, you -- in reference to cash, you are talking about September '16?

Pardon me. Yes. No, we are talking of September, you know, July to September of '17.

Oh I see, I see. Okay.

I've committed to put about a million three or four into the company between now and next year, which every projection we've done it shows that should be enough to get us to cash flow breakeven.

Perfect, thank you for adding that details, Steve. And thanks again for taking my questions, I appreciate it greatly.

Oh, absolutely, Kevin, and give Ron a call offline, and he will get you the exact number. I could be off on that. In fact it's probably a bit higher than I said.

Okay, thank you again.

You bet.

[Operator Instructions]

Oh, Kevin, it looks like there is no additional question, so I am going to wrap this up today. I want to thank everyone for participating in our second quarter 2016 conference call, and we look forward to speaking with you all again after complete the third quarter of 2016. Good evening and good afternoon depending on what part of the country you are in.

Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude today's conference. Thank you for your participation.
