Sunnyvale, California - April 21, 2015 - Infinera Corporation (NASDAQ: INFN), provider of Intelligent Transport Networks, today released financial results for the first quarter of 2015 ended March 28, 2015.

GAAP operating margin for the quarter was 8.1% compared to an operating margin of 6.9% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and an operating loss of 0.7% in the first quarter of 2014.

GAAP net income for the quarter was $12.4 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income of $8.4 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014, and a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.04 per share, in the first quarter of 2014.

Non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 47.8% compared to 46.1% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 41.8% in the first quarter of 2014. Non-GAAP operating margin for the quarter was 12.2% compared to 11.0% in the fourth quarter of 2014 and 3.9% in the first quarter of 2014.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP measures that exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related costs and amortization of debt discount on Infinera’s convertible senior notes.

For a description of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please see the section titled, “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations.” Infinera anticipates disclosing forward-looking non-GAAP information in its conference call to discuss its first quarter 2015 results, including an estimate of non-GAAP earnings for the second quarter of 2015 that excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, acquisition-related costs and amortization of debt discount on Infinera’s convertible senior notes.

⁽²⁾

In April 2015, Infinera announced its offer to acquire Transmode AB, a leader in metro packet-optical networking. Acquisition-related costs include legal and other professional fees and have been adjusted in arriving at Infinera's non-GAAP results because management believes that these expenses are not indicative of ongoing operating performance and provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.

⁽³⁾

Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, for GAAP purposes, Infinera is required to amortize as a debt discount an amount equal to the fair value of the conversion option that was recorded in equity as interest expense on its $150 million 1.75% convertible debt issuance in May 2013 over the term of the notes. These amounts have been adjusted in arriving at Infinera's non-GAAP results because management believes that this non-cash expense is not indicative of ongoing operating performance and provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
