TEL AVIV, Israel, Jan. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- RiT Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ CM: RITT), the leader in intelligent infrastructure management and the developer of an innovative indoor optical wireless technology solution, announced today a plan to reduce operating expenses by more than 25% in 2014. As part of this plan, RiT will focus its efforts on maintaining its 2014 sales targets while implementing cost efficiencies in its purchasing and logistics, reducing its R&D development costs as well as reducing its global workforce by 10% to 15% .

"We have instituted a number of cost reduction initiatives without sacrificing top-line growth or inhibiting our margin expansion efforts, with the goal of improving our business results in 2014," commented Dr. Vadim Leiderman, RiT's President and CEO. "Although the decision to reduce our workforce was difficult, we are confident it is in the best interest of all stakeholders."

"As we continue to execute our long-term growth strategy to introduce new products, penetrate new markets and expand our addressable market, we have successfully expanded our distribution network.   The increase in the number of our distribution partners who have integrated our IIM and DCIM solutions into their product offering will allow us to realize efficiencies that should result in margin expansion over the long-term."
