Reports Q1 (Jul) earnings of $0.23 per share, $0.03 worse than the Capital IQ Consensus Estimate of $0.26; revenues fell 1.9% year/year to $314 mln vs the $318.66 mln consensus. "Revenues for our first fiscal quarter were $314.0 million compared to $320.0 million in the prior quarter; however, the prior quarter had the benefit of an additional week. Taking that into consideration, the first fiscal quarter had a higher average weekly revenue relative to the prior quarter... Strength in revenue was primarily driven by 40 gigabit transceivers for datacom applications".
