- Thursday, May 16, 9:15 AM A few Cisco rivals and suppliers are up premarket after the networking giant beat estimates while reporting strong data center switch/server sales and service provider orders (albeit while cautioning the SP capex environment remains tough). Some others might move higher following the open. JNPR +3.6%. FFIV +3.2%. CIEN +3.9%. EZCH +1.2% - Cisco mentioned on its earnings call sales of its ASR 9000 edge routers, which EZchip supplies network processors for, were up 40%+ Y/Y. 2 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 15, 5:00 PM Cisco (CSCO) guides on FQ3 call (webcast) for FQ4 EPS of $0.50-$0.52 and revenue growth of 4%-7%, which compares with a consensus of $0.51 and 6.9%. Revenue growth will take a 1% hit from the Linksys sale. Gross margin is expected to drop to 61%-62% from FQ3's 63%. Shares +7.9% AH. JNPR +1.6%. BRCD +1.1% CIEN +1.5%. 1 Comment [Tech, Earnings, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Wednesday, May 15, 11:32 AM Evercore launches coverage on Ciena (CIEN +2.1%) with an Overweight and $20 PT, giving a lift to the telecom equipment maker. The move comes a day after Ciena announced new Ethernet modules for its 6500 Packet-Optical Platform, which combines Ethernet and optical networking capabilities in the same box. The upgrade adds support for Ciena's SAOS operating system, long a staple of Ciena's Ethernet-only gear. Integrated Ethernet/optical products made up 53% of Ciena's FQ1 revenue. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 15, 1:23 AM IDC cuts its 2013 IT spending growth forecast to 4.9% from 5.5%, citing macro issues and weak PC demand; 2012 growth was 5.6%. Gartner, which includes a bigger array of products/services in its numbers, forecast 4.1% growth last month. IDC now sees U.S. software spending (MSFT, ORCL) growing 6%, down from a prior 7%. Storage hardware revenue (EMC, NTAP) is only expected to grow 2.4%, down from 2012's 6.1%, and carrier spending on networking gear (CSCO, JNPR, ALU, CIEN) is expected to grow just 1.1% vs. 5.8% in 2012. Recent earnings reports and warnings (I, II, III, IV) help explain the subdued outlook. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Thursday, April 25, 10:17 AM A Q1 beat and strong 2013 guidance lead Infinera (INFN +22.8%) to surge to 52-week highs. Industry peers are up in sympathy, a day after many declined thanks to AT&T: CIEN +3%. FNSR +2.8%. JDSU +1.5%. ADTN +2.2%. CALX +1.5%. On its earnings call, Infinera guided for Q2 revenue of $130M-$140M and EPS of -$0.04 to $0.01, above a consensus of $124.3M and -$0.05. Gross margin (an issue going in) is expected to rise to 37%-39% from Q1's 36%. 2013 revenue growth is now pegged at the the high end of a guidance range of 10%-20% (consensus is 17%). Purchase commitments for the advanced DTN-X optical transmission system grew by 6 to 27. Needham has upgraded shares to Buy. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 23, 7:56 PM Telecom equipment and optical component makers fall in AH trading in response to Juniper's revenue miss and light Q2 guidance, and (in what's arguably the bigger news) AT&T's $2B/year capex budget cuts for 2014 and 2015. CSCO -1.8% AH. CIEN -2.5%. RVBD -1.4%. JDSU -3.4%. FNSR -1.3%. TLAB -1.6%. Many of these companies had surged last November when AT&T set lofty 2014/2015 capex targets. Other names that could fall tomorrow: INFN. FN. OPLK. CALX. ADTN. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 10, 11:04 AM Adtran's (ADTN +13%) Q1 beat is contributing to strong gains in telecom equipment, chip, and component stocks, as investors take it as another sign of improving telecom capex going into earnings season. Adtran's remarks about strong demand from both U..S. and international carriers can't be hurting. CSCO +2.5%. CIEN +6.4%. JDSU +4.6%. ALU +4.6%. FN +4.8%. FNSR +6%. PKT +4.2%. RKUS +4.2%. JNPR +3.9%. CAVM +3%. INFN +2.9%. OCLR +4%. SONS +2.5%. 2013 has seen a string of rallies (I, II, III) tied to capex hopes. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 4, 6:36 PM Telecom equipment upstart Cyan files for a $75M IPO under the symbol CYNI. Cyan sells both a line of integrated Ethernet switching/optical transmission systems for carrier edge networks (the Z-Series), and a software-defined networking platform for managing carrier networks (Blue Planet). The company had revenue of $95.8M (+137% Y/Y) in 2012, and a net loss of $16.6M. Hardware rivals include Ciena, Fujitsu, Juniper, and Huawei; Cisco and Alcatel-Lucent are arguably competitors on both the hardware and software fronts. (S-1) Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 21, 2:14 PM Telecom equipment/optical component names underperform following FBR's Cisco/Juniper downgrades, as investors mull the impact of lower demand for switches/routers among service providers and enterprises on demand for complementary hardware and the parts that go into it. Given software-defined networking (the main reason for FBR's downgrade) will have a limited impact on hardware use on many carrier networks, is the Street overreacting? JDSU -4.2%. FNSR -3.3%. CIEN -3.8%. ADTN -3.1%. ALU -2.7%. ADTN -3.1%. SONS -4.7%. INFN -2.6%. FFIV -2.3%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 14, 10:05 AM Telecom equipment and component makers trade higher after China Mobile (the world's largest carrier) forecasts a 49% Y/Y increase in capex in 2013 to a hefty RMB190.2B ($30.6B). Vodafone and France Telecom's plans to build a fiber network in recession-hit Spain might not be hurting either. FNSR +6.6%. ALU +2.9%. JNPR +2%. OCLR +4.8%. CIEN +1.5%. JDSU +1.5%. ALLT +3.3%. ERIC +1.2%. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]

[On the Move] - Thursday, March 7, 9:18 AM Ciena (CIEN) +13.9% following its FQ1 beat, which is adding fresh fuel to hopes of improving telecom capex. FQ2 guidance is for revenue of $465M-$495M, in-line with a $482.1M consensus. Gross margin was 44.6%, +190 bps Q/Q and +270 bps Y/Y. Expected to be in low-40s in FQ2. Sales of integrated Ethernet/optical networking gear (53% of revenue) +18% Y/Y. Ethernet switches +113%, optical transport -47%. Opex roughly flat. 2 customers made up 26% of sales.

CEO Gary Smith notes market dynamics are "increasingly aligned with our strategy and competitive strengths." Gross margin increased to 43.2% from 40.3%, notwithstanding input cost increases. Telecom-equipment stocks have struggled with a shrinking customer base and weak spending; CIEN's investments in next-generation technology may be paying off. Comment! [On the Move, Earnings]
