>>Ciena may have difficulty meeting his revenue estimate of $1.5 billion Is there an official revenue projection for Ciena and if so is it lower thak, the same or hight than DBAB's projection?<< Some of the pay services like First Call may have a revenue projection, but I don't think one could call it "official"...unfortunately, I don't subscribe to any of them so I can't answer the question. >>Srikanth noted that he is confident about the company's first quarter ended Dec. 31, Doesn't Ciena's Q1 end 1/31 (based on a 10/31 fye)? If so, how can we trust an analyst that does not know the when the fye-q ends? Of course could it just be a typo by the reported? << According to the Ciena site, you are correct... CIENA's fiscal year begins November 1st. Our fiscal quarter end dates for 2001 are: January 31, 2001 Q1 Ends April 30, 2001 Q2 Ends July 31, 2001 Q3 Ends October 31, 2001 Q4 Ends ciena.com It does make one wonder....
