Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN) hat seine finanziellen Ergebnisse für das zweite Quartal 2024 bekannt gegeben, die eine gemischte Leistung zeigen. Die GAAP-Einnahmen stiegen auf 342,7 Millionen US-Dollar von 306,9 Millionen im ersten Quartal 2024, fielen jedoch gegenüber 376,2 Millionen im zweiten Quartal 2023. Die GAAP-Bruttomarge verbesserte sich auf 39,6%, gegenüber 36,0% im ersten Quartal 2024 und 38,0% im zweiten Quartal 2023. Das Unternehmen meldete einen GAAP-Nettoverlust von $(48,3) Millionen, oder $(0,21) pro verwässerter Aktie, was eine Verbesserung gegenüber dem ersten Quartal 2024, aber einen Rückgang gegenüber dem zweiten Quartal 2023 darstellt.

CEO David Heard äußerte sich zufrieden über die Ergebnisse und stellte fest, dass die Einnahmen, die Bruttomarge und die Betriebsmarge den Mittelwert ihrer Prognosespanne überstiegen. Das Unternehmen beendete das zweite Quartal mit einem Book-to-Bill-Verhältnis von über 1. Infinera hob auch die bevorstehende Fusion mit Nokia hervor, die voraussichtlich in der ersten Hälfte von 2025 abgeschlossen wird.

Positive
  • Revenue increased to $342.7 million from $306.9 million in Q1 2024
  • GAAP gross margin improved to 39.6% from 36.0% in Q1 2024
  • Non-GAAP gross margin increased to 40.3% from 36.6% in Q1 2024
  • Book-to-bill ratio above 1, indicating strong future demand
  • Bookings up both sequentially and year-over-year
Negative
  • GAAP revenue decreased from $376.2 million in Q2 2023
  • GAAP net loss of $(48.3) million, wider than $(20.3) million in Q2 2023
  • Non-GAAP operating margin of (1.3)% compared to 2.8% in Q2 2023
  • Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash decreased to $115.7 million

Infinera's Q2 2024 results show mixed signals. Revenue increased 11.7% sequentially to $342.7 million, but decreased 8.9% year-over-year. The GAAP gross margin improved to 39.6%, up from both Q1 2024 and Q2 2023. However, the company still reported a GAAP net loss of $48.3 million, although this was an improvement from Q1 2024.

The non-GAAP metrics paint a slightly better picture, with gross margin at 40.3% and a smaller net loss of $14 million. The book-to-bill ratio above 1 suggests potential future revenue growth. The pending merger with Nokia could provide scale benefits, but also introduces uncertainty. With $115.7 million in cash and equivalents, Infinera's liquidity position warrants monitoring.

Infinera's Q2 results reflect the ongoing challenges in the optical networking sector. The company's focus on design-win momentum and increased bookings suggests a strategic pivot towards future growth. The mention of high-bandwidth applications, including AI, as drivers for capacity demands aligns with industry trends.

The pending merger with Nokia is a significant development. It could potentially address Infinera's scale limitations and expand its market reach. The emphasis on accelerating innovation to lower cost and power per bit indicates a focus on competitive differentiation. However, the merger also introduces integration risks and potential market repositioning challenges. The lack of future guidance due to the pending acquisition adds uncertainty for investors trying to assess Infinera's standalone prospects.

SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Infinera Corporation (NASDAQ: INFN) today released financial results for its second quarter ended June 29, 2024.

GAAP revenue for the quarter was $342.7 million compared to $306.9 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $376.2 million in the second quarter of 2023.

GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 39.6% compared to 36.0% in the first quarter of 2024 and 38.0% in the second quarter of 2023. GAAP operating margin for the quarter was (8.7)% compared to (14.0)% in the first quarter of 2024 and (3.8)% in the second quarter of 2023.

GAAP net loss for the quarter was $(48.3) million, or $(0.21) per diluted share, compared to net loss of $(61.4) million, or $(0.27) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024, and net loss of $(20.3) million, or $(0.09) per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023.

Non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 40.3% compared to 36.6% in the first quarter of 2024 and 39.3% in the second quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP operating margin for the quarter was (1.3)% compared to (8.4)% in the first quarter of 2024 and 2.8% in the second quarter of 2023.

A further explanation of the use of non-GAAP financial information and a reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure can be found at the end of this press release.

Infinera CEO, David Heard said “I am pleased with our second quarter results with revenue, gross margin and operating margin all above the midpoint of our outlook range. While the timing and pace of customer demand recovery remain uncertain, we continued our design-win momentum across our optical networking product portfolio in the quarter, with bookings up both sequentially and on a year-over-year basis. We ended Q2 with a book-to-bill ratio above 1.”

“We remain excited about our pending combination with Nokia. Customers see value in accelerating the pace of innovation to lower both the cost per bit and power per bit required to stay ahead of the capacity demands fueled by high-bandwidth usage applications including AI. Together, the combined business would have a broadened portfolio, greater scale and geographic reach, while leveraging vertically integrated optical semiconductor technologies developed here in the U.S.”

Pending Merger with Nokia

On June 27, 2024, Infinera, Nokia Corporation, a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Finland (“Nokia”) and Neptune of America Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Nokia (“Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended, modified or waived from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) that provides for Merger Sub to merge with and into Infinera (the “Merger”), with Infinera surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Nokia. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2025.

In light of the proposed transaction with Nokia, and as is customary during the pendency of an acquisition, Infinera will not be providing financial guidance during the pendency of the acquisition.

(2) Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of developed technology and customer relationships acquired in connection with the acquisitions of Coriant and Transmode AB. GAAP accounting requires that acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value and amortized over their useful lives. As this amortization is non-cash, Infinera has excluded it from its non-GAAP gross profit, operating expenses and net income measures. Management believes the amortization of acquired intangible assets is not indicative of ongoing operating performance and its exclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(3)Restructuring and other related costs are primarily associated with the reduction of headcount and the reduction of operating costs. In addition, this includes accelerated amortization on operating lease right-of-use assets due to the cessation of use of certain facilities. Management has excluded the impact of these charges in arriving at Infinera's non-GAAP results as they are non-recurring in nature and its exclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(4)Warehouse fire losses were incurred due to inventory destroyed in a warehouse fire in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. Recoveries are recorded when they are probable of receipt. Management has excluded the impact of this loss and subsequent recoveries in arriving at Infinera's non-GAAP results as it is non-recurring in nature and its exclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(5)Merger-related charges represent costs incurred directly in connection with the pending merger with Nokia. Management has excluded the impact of these charges in arriving at Infinera's non-GAAP results as they are non-recurring in nature and the exclusion of these charges provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(6)Foreign exchange (gains) losses, net, have been excluded from Infinera's non-GAAP results because management believes that this expense is not indicative of ongoing operating performance and its exclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(7)The difference between the GAAP and non-GAAP tax provision is due to the net tax effects of above non-GAAP adjustments. Management believes the exclusion of these tax effects provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  
(8)The GAAP diluted shares include potentially dilutive securities from Infinera's stock-based benefit plans and convertible senior notes. These potentially dilutive securities are added for the computation of diluted net income per share on a GAAP basis in periods when Infinera has net income on a GAAP basis, as its inclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance.
  

For purposes of calculating GAAP diluted earnings per share, we used the following net loss and weighted average common shares outstanding (in thousands, except per share data):

 (a)For the three- months ended June 29, 2024, March 30, 2024, and July 1, 2023, there were 1.9 million, 1.9 million and 9.0 million shares, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect. For the six-months ended June 29, 2024, and July 1, 2023, there were 1.9 million, and 9.7 million shares, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
   
 (b)For each of the three- months ended June 29, 2024, March 30, 2024, and July 1, 2023, there were 26.1 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect. For each of the six-months ended June 29, 2024, and July 1, 2023, there were 26.1 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
   
 (c)For each of the three- months ended June 29, 2024, March 30, 2024, and July 1, 2023, there were no shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. For the six-months ended June 29, 2024, there were no shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. For the six-months ended July 1, 2023, there were 1.8 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
   
(9)The non-GAAP diluted shares include the potentially dilutive securities from Infinera's stock-based benefit plans and convertible senior notes. These potentially dilutive securities are added for the computation of diluted net income per share on a non-GAAP basis in periods when Infinera has net income on a non-GAAP basis as its inclusion provides a better indication of Infinera's underlying business performance. Refer to the diluted earnings per share reconciliation presented below.
  
(10)Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered an alternative to operating loss or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP. Infinera's adjusted EBITDA is calculated by excluding the above non-GAAP adjustments, interest expense, net, other gain (loss), net, income tax effects and depreciation expenses. Management believes that adjusted EBITDA is an important financial measure for use in evaluating Infinera's financial performance, as it measures the ability of our business operations to generate cash.

Free Cash Flow

We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in the period minus the purchase of property and equipment made in the period.

Free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SEC’s rules. Management believes that free cash flow is an important financial measure for use in evaluating Infinera's financial performance, as it measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net loss as a measure of our performance or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, our definition of free cash flow is limited and does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other obligations. Therefore, we believe it is important to view free cash flow as supplemental to our entire statement of cash flows.

(1)Non-GAAP adjustments include stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring and other related costs and warehouse fire recovery. For a description of this non-GAAP financial measure, please see the section titled, “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations” of this press release for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. For reconciliations of prior periods that are not otherwise provided herein, see the prior period earnings releases available on our Investor Relations webpage.
  
(2)Infinera calculates DSO based on 91 days. Fiscal year 2022 was 53 weeks and the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 was 98 days. When calculation is based on 98 days, DSO was 85 days for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022.
  
(3)Infinera calculates non-GAAP inventory turns as annualized non-GAAP cost of revenue, which is calculated as GAAP cost of revenue less stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring and other related costs and warehouse fire recovery, as illustrated in the reconciliation of gross profit above, divided by the average inventory for the quarter.
