"We continue to win in the market and take share as demonstrated by a solid operating performance in the third quarter," said Gary Smith, president and CEO of Ciena. But the company is "experiencing the effects of ongoing macroeconomic challenges and slower than expected roll-outs of new design wins."
Ciena's weak fourth quarter forecast dragged down shares of other telecom equipment makers. Finisar Corp., JDS Uniphase, Alcatel Lucent SA, and Tellabs all took hits to their share prices last Thursday. Ciena's sales projections of $455 million to $480 million in the fourth quarter fell short of the $500 million predicted by analysts.
