Infinera reported Q1 2011 GAAP revenues of $92.9 million compared to $117.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 and $95.8 million in the first quarter of 2010. GAAP gross margins for the quarter were 46% compared to 49% in the fourth quarter of 2010 and 39% in the first quarter of 2010. GAAP net loss for the quarter was $16.4 million, or $(0.16) per share, compared to net loss of $2.7 million, or $(0.03) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2010 and net loss of $20.0 million, or $(0.21) per share, in the first quarter of 2010.
“Our first quarter results were achieved based on continuing demand for our product portfolio from our existing customers, which reflects continuing steady growth in end-user demand for bandwidth, but we saw slower new footprint activity in Q1 versus a year ago,” said Tom Fallon, president and chief executive officer. “Customers continue to show strong interest in our Photonic Integrated Circuit technology and in the field trial demonstrations of the differentiated features of our upcoming new products—our 40G transmission solution with FlexCoherent technology and our next-generation 500Gb/s PIC solution, which will support 100G transmission applications.http://www.infinera.com
