Ciena Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Increases revenue 14% year-over-year
Achieves 3% as-adjusted operating profit
Increases cash position by $35 million
LINTHICUM, Md. - May 31, 2012 - Ciena® Corporation (NASDAQ: CIEN), the network specialist, today announced unaudited financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended April 30, 2012.
For the fiscal second quarter 2012, Ciena reported revenue of $477.6 million.
On the basis of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), Ciena's net loss for the fiscal second quarter 2012 was $(27.8) million, or $(0.28) per common share, which compares to a GAAP net loss of $(62.7) million, or $(0.66) per common share, for the fiscal second quarter 2011.
Ciena's adjusted (non-GAAP) net income for the fiscal second quarter 2012 was $3.7 million, or $0.04 per common share, which compares to an adjusted (non-GAAP) net loss of $(22.4) million, or $(0.24) per common share, for the fiscal second quarter 2011.
“Our second quarter was highlighted by strong revenue growth and positive overall operating performance, which demonstrated our ability to deliver operating leverage,” said Gary Smith, president and CEO of Ciena. “We remain confident that we are well positioned for future growth and continue to expect our second half operating results to be stronger than the first half.”

Notes to Investors
Forward-looking statements. This press release contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on current expectations, forecasts, assumptions and other information available to the Company as of the date hereof. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding Ciena's expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future and can be identified by forward-looking words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "should," "will," and "would" or similar words. Forward-looking statements in this release include: "Our second quarter was highlighted by strong revenue growth and positive overall operating performance, which demonstrated our ability to deliver operating leverage”; “We remain confident that we are well positioned for future growth and continue to expect our second half operating results to be stronger than the first half”; "Ciena expects fiscal third quarter 2012 financial performance to include revenue in the range of $455 to $485 million, adjusted (non-GAAP) gross margin percentage of approximately 40 percent, adjusted (non-GAAP) operating expense in the low to mid $180s million range."
Ciena's actual results, performance or events may differ materially from these forward-looking statements made or implied due a number of risks and uncertainties relating to Ciena's business, including: the effect of broader economic and market conditions on our customers and their business; changes in network spending or network strategy by large communication service providers; seasonality and the timing and size of customer orders, including our ability to recognize revenue relating to such sales; the level of competitive pressure we encounter; the product, customer and geographic mix of sales within the period; supply chain disruptions and the level of success relating to efforts to optimize Ciena's operations; changes in foreign currency exchange rates affecting revenue and operating expense; and the other risk factors disclosed in Ciena's Annual Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2012. Ciena assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking information included in this press release.
Non-GAAP Presentation of Quarterly Results. This release includes non-GAAP measures of Ciena's gross profit, operating expense, income (loss) from operations, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share. In evaluating the operating performance of Ciena's business, management excludes certain charges and credits that are required by GAAP. These items share one or more of the following characteristics: they are unusual and Ciena does not expect them to recur in the ordinary course of its business; they do not involve the expenditure of cash; they are unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; or their magnitude and timing is largely outside of Ciena's control. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures below provide management and investors useful information and meaningful insight to the operating performance of the business. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to Ciena's GAAP results and these measures are not intended to be a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Ciena's non-GAAP measures and the related adjustments may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other companies and should only be used to evaluate Ciena's results of operations in conjunction with our corresponding GAAP results. To the extent not previously disclosed in a prior Ciena financial results press release, Appendix A to this press release sets forth a complete GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures contained in this release.

The adjusted (non-GAAP) measures above and their reconciliation to Ciena's GAAP results for the periods presented reflect adjustments relating to the following items:
• | Share-based compensation expense - a non-cash expense incurred in accordance with share-based compensation accounting guidance. |
• | Amortization of intangible assets - a non-cash expense arising from the acquisition of intangible assets, principally developed technologies and customer-related intangibles acquired from the MEN Business, that Ciena is required to amortize over its expected useful life. |
• | Acquisition and integration costs - reflects transaction expense, and consulting and third party service fees associated with the acquisition of the Nortel MEN Business and the integration of this business into Ciena's operations. |
• | Restructuring costs - costs incurred as a result of restructuring activities (or in the case of recoveries, previous restructuring activities) taken to align resources with perceived market opportunities. |
• | Change in fair value of embedded redemption feature - a non-cash unrealized gain or loss reflective of a mark to market fair value adjustment of an embedded derivative related to the redemption feature of Ciena's outstanding 4.0% senior convertible notes. |
