The stock (AFCI: news, msgs) improved 5 7/8 to close at 48 9/16 on volume of 7 million shares.

On Tuesday shares of Advanced Fibre fell after rival Harmonic (HLIT: news, msgs) warned its second-quarter earnings will be below Wall Street expectations in part because of a slowdown in sales to AT&T. See related story.

Credit Suisse First Boston analyst Reginal King said investors were concerned that Advanced Fibre may be losing Winstar Communications (WCII: news, msgs) as a strong customer.

“These concerns and Advanced Fibre’s stock decline Tuesday were unwarranted, “ said King.

King reiterated a “buy” rating on Advanced Fibre and said the company’s June quarter is progressing somewhat better than previous expectations.

Visibility continues to improve and Advanced Fibre’s relationships with all its major customers remain strong, King said.

CS First Boston estimates Advanced Fibre will make 9 cents a share on revenue of $92 million in the second quarter.

The average estimate of analysts polled by First Call is 10 cents a share. The company is slated to release quarterly results July 17.
