Infinera Corporation Reports First Quarter 2009 Financial Results

Revenues of $66.6 Million for the Quarter; Selected by Two Additional European Tier-One Customers


SUNNYVALE, CA--(Marketwire - April 21, 2009) - Infinera Corporation (NASDAQ: INFN), a leading provider of digital optical communications systems, today released financial results for the first quarter ended March 28, 2009.

--  GAAP revenues for the first quarter of 2009 were $66.6 million
    compared to $86.2 million on an adjusted GAAP basis for the fourth quarter
    of 2008 and $95.5 million on an invoiced shipment basis in the first
    quarter of 2008.
--  GAAP gross margins for the quarter were 30%.  Excluding non-cash stock-
    based compensation, non-GAAP gross margins were 31% in the first quarter of
    2009 compared to 36% on an adjusted GAAP basis for the fourth quarter of
    2008 and 45% on an invoiced shipments basis in the first quarter of 2008.
--  The GAAP net loss for the quarter was $24.3 million, or $0.26 per
    share.  Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, the net loss on a non-
    GAAP basis was $17.6 million or $0.19 per share, in the first quarter of
    2009 compared to a net loss of $9.0 million, or $0.10 per share, on an
    adjusted GAAP basis in the fourth quarter of 2008 and net income of $12.6
    million, or $0.13 per diluted share, on an invoiced shipments basis, for
    the first quarter of 2008.
    

Management Commentary

"The combination of macroeconomic effects and timing associated with some large deployments put downward pressure on our revenue and gross margins for the first quarter," said Jagdeep Singh, president and chief executive officer of Infinera. "However, we saw continued momentum with tier-one carriers, as Infinera was selected by two additional European PTTs.

"In addition, we continue to experience a robust level of DWDM activity with carriers worldwide and see additional evidence that our unique PIC-based value proposition is resonating with existing customers and prospects," said Singh. "We also continue to make significant strides in advancing our technology lead. As a result, we believe that we are well-positioned to resume top-line growth and improved bottom-line performance as the macroeconomic environment improves."

The company noted the following Q1 highlights:

--  The selection of Infinera by the two new European-based Tier 1
    carriers continues the company's string of successes in Europe, begun
    almost 11 months ago with its win at Deutsche Telecom.
    
--  At the OFC tradeshow last month, Infinera successfully demonstrated
    its 400 Gbps PIC integrating ten 40Gbps channels.
    
--  Enabled by its new ILS2 line system, the company also won new deals
    that included submarine network routes, an important growth segment in the
    DWDM space.
    

Footnote: For an explanation of our use of Non-GAAP, Invoiced Shipments and Adjusted GAAP measures and a full reconciliation of these measures to our GAAP results, please see the section of the accompanying tables titled "GAAP to Non-GAAP, Invoiced Shipment and Adjusted GAAP Reconciliations." We have not shown comparisons to our first quarter 2008 GAAP results because those results were significantly affected by the recognition of ratable product and related support and services revenue from shipments made prior to the first quarter of 2008, which we believe makes those comparisons less useful for investors. See our GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations attached to this release for these GAAP to GAAP comparisons.

Use of Non-GAAP, Invoiced Shipments and Adjusted GAAP Information:

As described below, Infinera uses various non-GAAP, invoiced shipments and adjusted GAAP financial measures to supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. We believe these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our underlying financial performance and also our prospects for the future and are considered by management for the purpose of making operational decisions. In addition, these results are the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or basic and diluted net income per share prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and are subject to limitations.

Our usage of these non-GAAP, invoiced shipments and adjusted GAAP measures are further explained below:

--  Prior to the second quarter of 2008, in order to supplement our
    condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis,
    Infinera used invoiced shipment measures of operating results, net income
    and net income per share, which are adjusted to reflect invoiced shipments
    and exclude non-GAAP stock-based compensation and warrant revaluation
    expenses.  Invoiced shipment measures reflected GAAP results adjusted for
    changes in our deferred revenue and deferred cost of inventory balances
    from the prior period.  These adjustments to our GAAP results were made to
    provide both management and investors with an understanding of Infinera's
    underlying operating results and trends as they would have been reflected
    had we established vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value
    for our service offerings and not been required to recognize revenue
    ratably.
    
--  Effective April 2008, we had established VSOE of fair value for most
    of our service offerings. From the second quarter of 2008 to the fourth
    quarter of 2008, we have used adjusted GAAP measures of operating results,
    net income and net income per share.  Adjusted GAAP results reflected our
    GAAP results reduced for amounts released from deferred revenue and
    deferred cost of inventory balances recorded prior to the second quarter of
    2008 and previously reported in our invoiced shipment results.  Deferred
    services and deferred ratable and product revenue and cost amounts recorded
    after March 29, 2008 were not adjusted and were recognized on a GAAP basis
    in arriving at the adjusted GAAP results.  We presented these non-GAAP
    measures of operating results, net income and net income per share, which
    included adjusted GAAP results and excluded non-GAAP stock-based
    compensation expense for these periods.
    
--  Beginning in the first quarter of 2009, we will use non-GAAP financial
    measures, which reflect our GAAP results and exclude stock-based
    compensation related expenses.  All material deferred revenue and deferred
    cost of inventory balances recorded prior to the second quarter of 2008 and
    previously reported in our invoiced shipment results have been recognized
    in our GAAP results prior to December 27, 2008. Therefore, no further
    adjustments, other than the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense
    as described above, will be made to our GAAP revenue and cost of revenue on
    a go-forward basis.
    

(a) As described above, no adjustments have been made to our GAAP revenue as recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the period ended March 28, 2009.

(b) Adjustment amount represents the release of ratable and product deferred revenue amounts related to periods prior to March 29, 2008 as these amounts have been previously reported as invoiced shipments. No adjustment has been made for changes in deferred services revenue as these amounts relate to future service deliverables and are appropriately deferred. Deferred ratable and product amounts recorded after March 29, 2008 have not been adjusted as these amounts are recognized on a GAAP basis in arriving at the adjusted GAAP results.

(f) Excluded amount represents stock-based compensation expense on a non-GAAP basis. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense accounted for in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R). While this is a large component of our expense, we believe investors want to evaluate our financial results both including and excluding the effects of stock-based compensation expense in order to compare our financial performance with that of other companies and between time periods.

The stock-based compensation expense excluded from cost of revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure and is reconciled to the corresponding GAAP amount in the table below:
