Infinera Corporation Reports Preliminary First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

San Jose, Calif., May 14, 2024 - Infinera Corporation (NASDAQ: INFN) today released preliminary financial results for its first quarter ended March 30, 2024. Although presented with numerical specificity, all amounts in this press release are preliminary and based on management’s current expectations as of the date of this press release. These results are subject to all aspects of the final quarterly review process and may change as a result of new information that arises, or new determinations that are made, in this process.
GAAP revenue for the quarter was $306.9 million compared to $453.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $392.1 million in the first quarter of 2023.
GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 36.0% compared to 38.6% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 37.5% in the first quarter of 2023. GAAP operating margin for the quarter was (14.0)% compared to 2.5% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and (2.4)% in the first quarter of 2023.
GAAP net loss for the quarter was $(61.4) million, or $(0.27) per diluted share, compared to net income of $12.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2023, and net loss of $(8.4) million, or $(0.04) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023.
Non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter was 36.6% compared to 39.6% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 38.8% in the first quarter of 2023. Non-GAAP operating margin for the quarter was (8.4)% compared to 7.2% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 3.5% in the first quarter of 2023.
Non-GAAP net loss for the quarter was $(38.3) million, or $(0.17) per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $28.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2023, and non-GAAP net income of $5.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023.
Generated $24.0 million of operating cash flow and free cash flow of $16.0 million for the quarter, and ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at $192.2 million.
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 “Q1 2024 was an important quarter for us marked by significant customer, RFP, and design-win momentum, but also a quarter where the industry was challenged as customers held back spending and pushed out projects. Our bookings were up year-over-year, and met our plan, with the multi-year revenue opportunity associated with our design wins representing potentially the largest in the company’s history. During the quarter, we gained further traction with our new GX line system, won major awards with our ICE-X pluggables, and launched ICE-D, a new line of intra-datacenter solutions with the potential to drive dramatic power reductions, especially for artificial intelligence (AI) workloads."
"On the operational front, our preliminary expectation is that revenue came in 4% below our outlook range, while all other key financial metrics were within the outlook range. We believe that the first half of the year represents the bottom of a demand cycle for the optical industry, and we expect to see improvements in the back half of the year leading to a very strong demand cycle in 2025. With key industry trends that include the penetration of fiber optics deeper into networks, proliferation of datacenters and AI workloads, and a record number of cables being laid underneath the ocean, we believe optical networking and related technologies have never been more important.”
Financial Outlook
Infinera's outlook for the quarter ending June 29, 2024, is as follows:
•Revenue is expected to be $330 million +/- $20 million.
•GAAP gross margin is expected to be 38.5% +/- 150 bps. Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be 39.5% +/- 150 bps.
•GAAP operating expenses are expected to be $162.5 million +/- $1.5 million. Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be $139.5 million +/- $1.5 million.
•GAAP operating margin is expected to be (11.5)% +/- 300 bps. Non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be (3.5)% +/- 300 bps.


•GAAP net loss per share is expected to be $(0.21) +/- $0.04. Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be $(0.09) +/- $0.04.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude in certain cases stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring and other related costs, warehouse fire recovery, foreign exchange (gains) losses, net, and income tax effects. Infinera believes these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of its underlying financial performance and also its prospects for the future and are considered by management for the purpose of making operational decisions. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are the primary indicators management uses as a basis for its planning and forecasting of future periods.

(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)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.
(6)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.
(7)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.
(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 income (loss) and weighted average common shares outstanding (in thousands, except per share data):

(a)For the three- months ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, there were 1.9 million and 10.4 million shares, respectively, excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
(b)For each of the three- months ended March 30, 2024, December 30, 2023 and April 1, 2023, there were 26.1 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, due to their anti-dilutive effect.
(c)For the three- months ended March 30, 2024, and December 30, 2023, there were no shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share. For the three- months ended April 1, 2023, there were 3.6 million shares excluded from the calculation of diluted net income (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.

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.
