Novell Boosts Profits in Fiscal Q4 Despite Revenue Declines
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
Commercial Linux distributor Novell announced its financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and year ended October 31 last week, and the numbers were mixed, as they tend to be with Novell. For both the quarter and the full year, Novell's sales were off as its NetWare platform continues to plummet, but profits were up in the fourth quarter after a particularly bad quarter a year ago. About two-thirds of the profits Novell booked for the full year came in the final fiscal quarter, however. READ MORE >
