Infinera reported Q2 GAAP revenue of $376.2 million compared to $392.1 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $358.0 million in the second quarter of 2022.
GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 38.0% compared to 37.5% in the first quarter of 2023 and 30.5% in the second quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter was $(0.7) million, or $(0.00) per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $5.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023, and non-GAAP net loss of $(10.1) million, or $(0.05) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022.
Infinera CEO David Heard said, “The second quarter was another solid quarter in which revenue, margins, and earnings per share beat consensus estimates and came in above the mid-point of our outlook range. On a year-over-year basis, we grew revenue by 5% in the quarter and 10% in the first half of the year, and expanded quarterly gross margin by more than 300 basis points. We continued to win new strategic deals with major telecom service providers and hyperscale customers in the Systems business and have received additional orders for our Subsystems business as well.”
“While the second half industry outlook is cautious with customers working down inventory and slowing the pace of new technology investments, we remain confident in our plan to deliver earnings per share expansion in 2023 on our path to generating at least a $1 per share in earnings by 2025-2026,” continued Mr. Heard.
