Rosetta Stone is reporting its first quarter financial results after becoming a publicly-traded company.

The language learning technology company, based in Harrisonburg, generated $50.3 million in its first quarter.

The United States accounts for 94 percent of its business while international markets account for the remaining six percent.

The company says, even in a challenging economy, it has done well.

"Several of our sales people reported that many people saw our solution as a way to cope with a tougher budget climate in 2009," says CEO Tom Adams.

Rosetta Stone is the first-publicly traded, stand alone, language instruction company.
