I've contacted some people that are very familiar with what is CURRENTLY going on at TLAB, and everything is on track for a strong 4th quarter. As far as Q3 goes, that was addressed in September during a conference call. Don't expect TLAB to report anything under .46, I am hoping we see .48, which would give a needed boost to the stock price.
As far as TLAB being a "1-trick pony" I find that quite amusing. Back in May of this year, Tellabs acquired certain wavelength-division multiplexing and optical networking technology from the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center in Westchester County, N.Y. Under the terms of the technology and related assets agreement, Dr. Paul Green and his optical networking team from the prestigious Thomas J. Watson Research Center joined Tellabs. Tellabs also became the owner of several patents and patent applications related to wavelength-division multiplexing and optical networking technologies. Other exclusive and non-exclusive rights to IBM's extensive patent portfolio in the field of wavelength-division multiplexing and optical networking, including certain sublicense rights, were also granted to Tellabs. "Wavelength-division multiplexing is an important technology for Tellabs' customers, the public providers of communications services worldwide," said Harvey R. Scull, vice president, Advanced Business Development, Tellabs Operations, Inc. "This investment in talented people and fundamental technology complements Tellabs' transport and access product portfolio with innovative optical transport solutions our customers will require to be successful in the 21st Century." Tellabs is establishing a technology research and product development facility for wavelength-division multiplexing and other optical networking technologies in Hawthorne, N.Y. The first products to use these technologies will be future members of the company's TITAN® family of bandwidth management systems.
"Telecommunications carriers around the world will require sophisticated optical networking equipment to meet future demands for interactive voice and data services," said Dr. Paul Green. "Tellabs will be in an ideal position to bring new, innovative technologies to the market."
The temporary gray skies will pass over shortly, and a nice short squeeze is yet to come. Remember, stocks can rise as fast as they fall, so keep your heads up and look for another strong quarter from TLAB.
