Bulls say / Bears say
Fiscal Q2 revenue surged 24% year-over-year to $1.13 billion, and Ciena posted a $9 million GAAP profit, reversing a $16.8 million loss from a year ago, reflecting strong demand for its optical networking solutions as AI-related spending rises. (WSJ)
Ciena projected fiscal Q3 revenue of $1.13 billion to $1.21 billion, topping the $1.10 billion consensus and targeting approximately 14% annual growth—signaling solid visibility and ongoing top-line momentum. (WSJ)
CEO Gary Smith noted that networks are now essential for monetizing AI investments, making Ciena a critical enabler for hyperscale AI infrastructure and fueling a jump in orders. (WSJ)
Q2 adjusted EPS of $0.42 missed the $0.52 consensus as higher incentive compensation pushed adjusted operating expenses up to $369 million, highlighting ongoing margin pressure despite strong revenue growth. (WSJ)
Geopolitical uncertainty threatens supply-chain stability, with CFO Jim Moylan introducing tariff surcharges and preparing for potential trade-war fallout after years of navigating economic challenges. (WSJ)
Demand is still heavily concentrated among hyperscalers, and adoption of enterprise AI is projected to lag by several years, which may cap total addressable market growth until broader enterprise spending accelerates. (WSJ)
