JDSU Posts Revenue of $318 Million, Loss Narrows

JDSU reported net revenue for its first quarter of fiscal 2007 of $318.1 million and GAAP net loss was $(17.4) million, or $(0.08) per share. This compares to net revenue of $318.2 million and GAAP net loss of $(45.8) million, or $(0.22) per share, reported for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, and to net revenue of $258.3 million and a GAAP net loss of $(67.0) million, or $(0.34) per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Fiscal 2006 first quarter results reflect a partial quarter contribution from the Communications Test and Measurement business acquired in August 2005.

"The achievement of positive earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis for the first time in more than five years marks another significant milestone on the company's journey to sustained profitability," said Kevin Kennedy, JDSU's Chief Executive Officer.
