- Tuesday, April 30, 2:44 PM Riverbed (RVBD -0.1%) has erased the big AH losses it saw following its Q1 report,as the Street decides the results and light Q2 guidance are priced in following a 25% YTD drop. The fact WAN optimization sales are expected to grow in Q2 following a rough Q1 (OPNET sales are a different story) could be helping. JMP (Market Perform): "We believe the company sufficiently reset expectations ... In addition, we are encouraged that some key products are gaining momentum." On its earnings call, Riverbed noted 25% of Granite storage appliance clients are new to the company, and that it's counting on a richer feature set to lift slowing WAN optimization growth. Comment!

After-hours top gainers, as of 5:15 p.m.: HTWR +9%. TXRH +8%. MGT +3%. USLV +3%. BWLD +2%.
After-hours top losers: MCO -8%. RVBD -7%. NSPR -7%. MBI -6%. BAH -3%. 1 Comment [On the Move] - Monday, April 29, 5:06 PM Riverbed (RVBD) guides on its Q1 call (webcast) for Q2 revenue of $255M-$260M and EPS of $0.21-$0.22, below a consensus of $273.4M and $0.25; a 2H pickup is promised. While Riverbed's core business is expected to grow 6%-7% Q/Q, OPNET sales are expected to drop to $42M-$46M from Q1's $52M. OPNET weakness is blamed on seasonality, gov. weakness, and (in what will get the most scrutiny) integration challenges. WAN optimization (68% of sales) rev. growth fell to 6% Y/Y in Q1 (a slowing market?). U.S. enterprise was a strong point, and 29 Granite customers were added. $25M in buybacks took place in Q1. Shares -8.2% AH. 1 Comment [Tech, Earnings, Breaking News]
- Monday, April 29, 4:26 PM More on Riverbed: Q1 rev. growth was 10% Y/Y exc. OPNET (deal closed in Dec.), down from Q4's 14%. Company says "weak government spending and general economic softness" hurt results - some peers have also blamed gov. spending (esp. U.S. federal). EMEA sales fell 13% Q/Q in spite of OPNET; Asia-Pac -2%, Americas +13% and now 65% of revenue. Thanks to OPNET, Riverbed now has a 20/80 split between direct and indirect (channel/OEM) sales vs. 7/93 in Q4. RVBD -10.4% AH to its 52-week low of $13.30. CC at 4:30PM ET (webcast), guidance should be provided. (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
- Monday, April 29, 4:08 PM Riverbed Technology (RVBD): Q1 EPS of $0.23 in-line. Revenue of $253M (+38% Y/Y) misses by $8.25M. Shares -12.4% AH. (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech, On the Move]

- Thursday, April 25, 11:05 AM Light FQ3 guidance isn't stopping F5 (FFIV +5%) from rallying in the wake of its FQ2 report; expectations were depressed thanks to the April 4 warning. On F5's earnings call, management insisted enterprise demand is healthy ahead of a mid-range application delivery controller (ADC) refresh and an update to F5's TMOS OS, even as U.S. telco and federal demand remains weak. Strong momentum was also claimed for F5's firewall and 4G infrastructure offerings. Nomura has upgraded shares to Buy, arguing "the market may be overstating the competitive risks to F5" from Citrix (CTXS - previous). Up in sympathy: RDWR +4%. RVBD +4.8%. 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]
- Tuesday, April 23, 10:06 AM Riverbed (RVBD +1.5%) names co-founder David Wu its new CTO; he replaces Steve McCane, who resigned from the position (as well as from Riverbed's board) in February. Riverbed notes Wu helped develop the architecture for its bread-and-butter Steelhead WAN optimization hardware line, and also calls him "the innovator behind" Riverbed's new Granite appliance, which enables data consolidation and improves storage performance for remote offices. (PR) Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, April 4, 4:38 PM F5 (FFIV) resumes trading and is currently at $75.85, down 16.1% AH in response to its FQ2 warning, which (in the wake of Oracle's results) is bound to heighten concerns about U.S./European enterprise IT demand. Rivals and peers are off in sympathy: CSCO -2.3%. RVBD -3.7% CTXS -3.7%. JNPR -5.1%. VMW -2.2%. EMC -0.9%. RHT -1.7%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 27, 4:26 PM Much like they did last week following Oracle's FQ3 miss, some enterprise IT names are selling off AH following Red Hat's FQ4 revenue miss, which was accompanied by slowing deferred revenue growth. CTXS -2%. VMW -1.9%. FFIV -1.1%. RVBD -2.1%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 13, 4:34 PM Riverbed (RVBD -3.2%) gradually sold off after Wunderlich raised concerns about the impact of Cisco's (CSCO) ISR-AX integrated services routers, which include WAN optimization support. Cisco claims its solution, which places ISR-AX routers in data centers and relies on software to provide WAN optimization to branch offices, is 20%-35% cheaper than solutions (such as Riverbed's) that place appliances in branch offices. Riverbed, which has fended off Cisco's integrated offerings thus far, will doubtlessly argue dedicated hardware yields superior performance. Comment! [Tech]
- Tuesday, March 12, 11:38 AM Cisco (CSCO -1.2%) follows tech lower after receiving a downgrade to Hold from Standpoint Research. The downgrade comes as Cisco updates its integrated services router (ISR) line to support application monitoring services. The update is another sign of Cisco's software/services push, and (as CRN observes) helps address the spread of apps arriving on corporate networks thanks to the BYOD trend and the adoption of cloud services. Cisco's ISR line also features WAN optimization support, making it a rival to Riverbed's (RVBD) Steelhead appliances. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 7, 10:11 AM It's rally time for telecom equipment and optical component makers, as the Street sees positive implications in Ciena's FQ1 beat and respectable FQ2 guidance for service provider capex. JDSU +6.2%. JNPR +4%. FNSR +4.5%. INFN +5.1%. ADTN +2.5%. RVBD +1.7%. FFIV +2.3%. CALX +2.1%. OCLR +5.7%. OPLK +2.7%. EXFO +4.5%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
