- Wednesday, May 30, 2012, 1:00 PM Ciena (CIEN -5.2%) slumps ahead of tomorrow morning's FQ2 report, even though Needham is starting coverage with a Buy and $16 PT. The firm notes Ciena has an 85% share of the nascent market for 100G optical transmission gear, and touts the company's order pipeline and improving margins. Nomura is more cautious: the firm is slashing its estimates due to the optical networking industry's capex issues, but expects a 2H demand pickup. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, May 18, 2012, 6:23 PM Optical networking equipment revenue fell 23% Q/Q in Q1, estimates Infonetics - a sharp decline even after accounting for seasonality. A 30%+ drop in EMEA sales overshadowed a small drop in North American sales. The firm is particularly worried about the fact EMEA sales of WDM gear fell more than sales of legacy gear. "This is not the behavior of a region experiencing only a minor quarterly pullback," it observes. Some key industry players: CIEN, INFN, ALU, SCMR, TLAB, ADTN. 2 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, May 11, 2012, 3:29 PM Ciena (CIEN +8.4%) shares surge as Verizon (VZ +1.5%) says it is using Ciena technology as part of its plans to build additional control panel technology into its network infrastructure. Citi says the news allays concerns that CIEN's technology isn't being accepted by customers and should give investors better confidence in its long-term growth opportunities. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 5, 2012, 3:54 PM Ciena (CIEN -3%) slips after Raymond James cut the shares to Market Perform following a switch in analyst coverage earlier today. The new analyst downgraded the shares based a slow down in optical systems growth and margins. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 4, 2012, 4:06 PM JP Morgan says the total equipment and data networking market should grow 2.4% in 2012 and 5.3% in 2013. The firm expects U.S. carrier spending to accelerate in the second half of 2012 with enterprise spending improving slightly. Its favorite plays in the space: Ciena (CIEN +0.4%), Cisco (CSCO -2%), Ericsson (ERIC -2.1%) and Riverbed (RVBD -2.5%). Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, April 4, 2012, 11:47 AM Ciena (CIEN +0.2%) is raised to Overweight from Neutral at J.P. Morgan on expectations of a revival of carriers’ capital equipment spending in H2 of this year. The catalyst will be the ramping up of deployment of 100-gig fiber optic networks, which will lead to 7.5% and 10.9% growth in the fiber optics market this year and next, or $14.26B and $15.82B. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 15, 2012, 12:10 PM Adtran (ADTN +4%) rallies in spite of issuing a major warning. Due to soft carrier orders, the telecom equipment maker now expects Q1 revenue of $130M-$135M and EPS of $0.22-$0.25, well below a consensus of $174.7M and $0.44. However, Adtran, which had already seen a raft of negative analyst notes (I, II, III), says order rates have "substantially improved" in March. Possibly up in sympathy: JNPR +3.3%. CIEN +3%. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 9:23 AM Though broadband subscription growth is leveling off in many nations, online video demand (much of it for non-PC devices) should nonetheless drive a 12x increase in wireline and mobile broadband traffic between 2010 and 2015, says IDC. Cisco's Visual Networking Index also projects strong traffic growth, which telecom equipment makers are counting on to make their recent woes a mere hiccup. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 8, 2012, 12:19 PM Ciena (CIEN +4.3%) is raised to Buy at Stifel Nicolaus, which says industry contacts at a trade show this week were enthusiastic about upgrading to faster infrastructure. CIEN is seeing robust demand despite signs of weak telecom spending in certain parts of the network, which "syncs with our view that being exposed to the right area in terms of customer spending priorities is important." Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 7, 2012, 9:05 AM Ciena (CIEN) +8.7% premarket despite reporting FQ1 revenue below consensus and a deeper-than-expected net loss. Gross margin improved to 40.3% from 38.9%, and operating expenses sank 18%. CEO Gary Smith says FQ1 did not “reflect the underlying strength of the business and ongoing customer demand," and results will be stronger in the second half. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]

- Monday, March 5, 2012, 5:59 PM Verizon (VZ) says its experience using cutting-edge 100G optical transmission gear has thus far "exceeded expectations," with the technology providing major performance and operational efficiency benefits. That's music to the ears of Ciena (CIEN), which is both the supplier for Verizon's deployment, and an early leader in the overall 100G market. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 1, 2012, 9:48 AM Morgan Stanley tags Ciena (CIEN -1.1%) as a Short Research Tactical Idea. Shares still trades lower despite the ratings boost after Finisair's FQ3 report cast a dark shadow on the sector. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
