In March 2004, Sonus Networks announced that it was likely to restate its 2002 and 2003 results because revenue was booked during the wrong periods. In June, 2004, Sonus Networks announced to restate its historical financial statements for 2001, 2002 and the first three quarters of fiscal year 2003, based on the status of its ongoing review.[3]
