Zhone Technologies Reports Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results


Zhone Technologies (News - Alert), Inc. (NASDAQ: ZHNE), a global leader in the fiber access market, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Revenue for the second quarter of 2016 was $22.6 million, compared to $20.6 million for the first quarter of 2016 and $27.5 million for the second quarter of 2015. Net loss for the second quarter of 2016, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), was $1.6 million or $0.05 per share compared with net loss of $3.4 million or $0.10 per share for the first quarter of 2016 and net loss of $0.4 million or $0.01 per share for the second quarter of 2015. Adjusted earnings before stock-based compensation, interest, taxes, depreciation and merger transaction costs ("adjusted EBITDA") was an adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.1 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2016 and an adjusted EBITDA profit of $0.1 million for the second quarter of 2015.

"The changes we made over the past two years are beginning to bear fruit in 2016 and will create sustainable revenue growth and profitability for the future," stated Jim Norrod, Zhone's chief executive officer. "Despite the impending transaction, we continue to maintain focus on our stand alone financial performance and are driving the initiatives that will create revenue growth and margin expansion, while maintaining cost efficiencies."

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2016 were $8.3 million compared to $10.1 million at December 31, 2015.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Zhone's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Zhone uses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure Zhone believes is appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of Zhone's past financial performance and prospects for the future. These adjustments to GAAP results are made with the intent of providing greater transparency to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. These non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators that management uses as a basis for making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operational performance, including the Company's ability to provide cash flows to invest in research and development, and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results and comparisons to competitors' operating results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between net income calculated on a GAAP basis and adjusted EBITDA on a non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
