Conrad W. Leifur, CFA, Senior Research Analyst
Corvis Corporation (CORV – $2.18 - #)
Rating: Market Perform; Volatility: High
Curious Sense Of Timing
Key Points:

Corvis announces acquisition of Dorsal Networks, a start-up developing turnkey undersea optical network solutions, for $90 million in stock.

Deal expected to close in Q2 02

No revenue contribution expected until 2003; shares issued will dilute current shareholders 11%

Despite significant longer term opportunity, timing of acquisition seems curious in light of undersea capacity glut and immaturity of Dorsal’s solution.
