In Asia Pacific sales for the 12 months to December 2023 fell from $18.5M to $10M a fall of over 50%.

The global marketing director of Netgear is Sydney based Heidi Cormack.

She joined Netgear in 2020 and despite the poor local results was promoted to Marketing Director APAC from Marketing Manager Australia.

Murray said “Although channel inventory compression constrained the topline across both our CHP and SMB businesses during the year, the strong contribution of our premium products powered us to equal our highest annual gross margin performance since 2007″.
