Am I missing something here?

The company also signaled sequential declines in orders may be nearing an end but said that it expects fiscal first-quarter sales of about $1 billion, down from $1.26 billion in the fourth-quarter.

Aren't orders more important since they are forward looking while sales are not? I for one, am more concerned with how orders look going forward, rather than sales.
