Read MoreHide Full Article
Leading optical transport network developer, Infinera Corp. (INFN - Free Report) reported disappointing financial results in second-quarter of 2017 wherein both the top and bottom line fell below the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
The company reported quarterly GAAP net loss of $42.8 million or a loss of 29 cents per share compared with the year-ago net income of $11.5 million or 8 cents per share. Infinera’s adjusted loss per share of 24 cents was a penny higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
Quarterly total revenue came in at $176.8 million, down 31.7% year over year, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $181.3 million. Segment-wise, product revenues were $143.4 million, down 37% year over year. Services revenues increased 6.9% to nearly $33.5 million. Domestic revenues contributed 63% to the total revenue, while the remaining 37% was generated from international markets.
In the second quarter of 2017, Infinera generated a negative $15 million of cash from operations as opposed to a positive $28.2 million in the prior-year quarter. Free cash flow in the reported quarter was a negative $54.2 million against a positive $4.9 million in the year-ago quarter.
At the end of the second quarter of 2017, Infinera had $257.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities compared with $304.3 million at the end of 2016. Total debt at the end of the second quarter of 2017 was $139.1 million compared with $133.6 at the end of 2016.
Infinera Corporation Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
The company provides digital optical networking systems to telecommunication carriers, cable operators and other service providers worldwide. It faces direct competition from the likes of Extreme Networks Inc. (EXTR - Free Report) , Netgear Inc. (NTGR - Free Report) and Brocade Communications Systems Inc. . All these stocks currently carry a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) while Infinera has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
It's hard to believe, even for us at Zacks. But while the market gained +18.8% from 2016 - Q1 2017, our top stock-picking screens have returned +157.0%, +128.0%, +97.8%, +94.7%, and +90.2% respectively.
And this outperformance has not just been a recent phenomenon. Over the years it has been remarkably consistent. From 2000 - Q1 2017, the composite yearly average gain for these strategies has beaten the market more than 11X over. Maybe even more remarkable is the fact that we're willing to share their latest stocks with you without cost or obligation. See Them Free>>
