“We’re pleased that the strong performance of our OpenSRS wholesale busines has contributed to another quarter of solid financial results amidst generally weak economic conditions,” said Elliot Noss, President and CEO of Tucows. “Even as our industry started to show signs of the economic downturn for the first time, our strong competitive position allowed us to achieve year-over-year growth in domain registrations during the quarter. Our other services are also performing within plan, positioning us well for the remainder of the year.”
