Tuesday, April 30, 5:46 PM Tech guidance roundup: 1) SolarWinds (SWI - earnings) expects Q2 revenue of $77.8M-$78.8M and EPS of $0.37-$0.38, below a consensus of $80.7M and $0.39. 2013 guidance is for revenue of $326.5M-$334M and EPS of $1.59-$1.65 vs. a consensus of $336.1M and $1.62. 2) Cavium (CAVM - earnings) expects Q2 revenue of ~$74M and EPS of $0.21-$0.23 vs. a consensus of $74.1M and $0.22. 3) Sonus (SONS - earnings) expects Q2 revenue of $66M-$68M and EPS of -$0.01 to $0.00 vs. a consensus of $64.9M and $0.00. 2013 guidance is for revenue of $267M-$271M and EPS of $0.00-$0.01 vs. a consensus of $268.7M and $0.00. SWI -8.4% AH. CAVM +4.1%. SONS +4.8%. (SolarWinds PR) (Cavium PR) (Sonus PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Tuesday, April 30, 4:24 PM Sonus Networks (SONS): Q1 EPS of -$0.02 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $63.3M beats by $2.18M. (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech]
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]
Monday, March 25, 1:12 PM Oracle's newfound love of telecom acquisitions continues to do wonders for Sonus (SONS +7.9%) and BroadSoft (BSFT +5.4%) shares. 6 weeks after their shares jumped thanks to Oracle's deal to acquire Acme Packet, they're rallying on news of its acquisition of Tekelec. BroadSoft was crushed last month after providing light guidance to go with a Q4 beat. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
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, February 28, 5:59 PM After-hours top gainers, as of 5:15 p.m.: SFLY +8%. DECK +8%. XXIA +8%. CRM +5%. GRPN +4%.
After-hours top losers: YOKU -17%. OVTI -10%. TRX -8%. IEP -6%. SONS -6%. Comment! [On the Move]
Thursday, February 28, 4:20 PM Sonus Networks (SONS): Q4 EPS of $0.01 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $75.1M misses by $3.26M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech]
Thursday, February 28, 12:10 AM Notable earnings after Thursday’s close: AIRM, AL, ALSK, BID, CLNE, CPNO, CRM, DECK, DRH, ENDP, GPS, GXP, HTGC, JOE, KOG, KYAK, MCP, MDR, MDVN, MENT, MTZ, MXWL, NGD, NOG, OPTR, OVTI, PANW, RNDY, RST, SD, SLXP, SONS, SPLK, SSRI, TEG, TESO, UHS, WR, XTEX, YOKU Comment!

Wednesday, February 27, 5:35 PM Notable earnings after Thursday’s close: AIRM, AL, ALSK, BID, CLNE, CPNO, CRM, DECK, DRH, ENDP, GPS, GXP, HTGC, JOE, KOG, KYAK, MCP, MDR, MDVN, MENT, MTZ, MXWL, NGD, NOG, OPTR, OVTI, PANW, RNDY, RST, SD, SLXP, SONS, SPLK, SSRI, TEG, TESO, UHS, WR, XTEX, YOKU 1 Comment [Earnings]
Monday, February 4, 12:45 PM Midday top 10 gainers: HPTX +31%. APKT +22%. EBOD +16%. PGRX +15%. SONS +14%. PC +11%. EDAP +9%. ORRF +10%. HMY +9%. TAOM +9%.
Midday top 10 Losers: INUV -13%. CLSN -13%. SED -12%. CYTK -8%. VVI -9%. CTC -8%. PRIS -8%. PERI -8%. BLIN -8%. CFBK -8%. Comment! [On the Move]
Monday, February 4, 9:37 AM Sonus (SONS +13.2%) jumps on news rival Acme Packet is getting acquired by Oracle (I, II) for $1.7B - the Street is betting Oracle's move will compel another IT giant (Cisco? IBM? H-P?) to use M&A to enter or strengthen its position in the VoIP infrastructure market. Sonus has a market cap ~60% smaller than Acme's buyout price, but (as a 10-year chart shows) the company has been struggling for some time. WAN optimization hardware leader Riverbed (RVBD +2%) might also be getting a lift. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Monday, February 4, 9:10 AM Premarket gainers: APKT +23%. RMTI +22%. SONS +10%. PPHM +8%. CCUR +6%. GALE +6%.
Losers: HLF -9%. Comment! [On the Move]
Monday, January 7, 5:45 PM After-hours top gainers, as of 5:15 p.m.: TISI +6%. VG +5%. CPE +4%. WTSLA +4%. AEO +4%.
After-hours top losers: YUM -5%. CLMT -5%. MDRX -3%. VRNG -3%. SONS -3%. Comment! [On the Move]
Thursday, January 3, 4:16 PM Sonus (SONS +2.6%) finished the day higher, and Acme Packet (APKT -5.1%) lower, after Northland's Catharine Trebnick reported Verizon is deploying Sonus' session border controllers (SBCs) on the New York-Boston segment of its IP backbone. Acme, the SBC market's top vendor, has long counted Verizon as a major customer. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Wednesday, November 7, 2012, 7:21 AM Sonus Networks (SONS): Q3 EPS of -$0.02 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $57M (-1% Y/Y) in-line. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
