C-COR REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2004

 

STATE COLLEGE, Pa.—April 22, 2004—C-COR.net Corp. (Nasdaq:CCBL), a global provider of broadband communications products, software systems, and services, today reported its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004, ended March 26, 2004. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004 were $58.4 million compared to $50.1 million for the same period last year, an increase of 17%. Bookings in the second quarter were $64.8 million for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.11. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004 was $5.0 million, compared to a net loss of $114.6 million for the same period last year. Earnings per share on a diluted basis for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004 were $0.12, compared to a net loss per share of $3.15 for the same period last year. The current year third quarter results reflect the sale of approximately $743,000 of inventory that was previously fully reserved, which had a positive impact on gross margin.

 

C-COR anticipates that net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, ending June 25, 2004, will be between $59 and $61 million with earnings per diluted share of between $0.07 and $0.10. This guidance reflects an expected shift in revenue mix, including lower software revenue than in the third quarter, integration costs related to the proposed Lantern acquisition, and the effect of increased shares outstanding from the recent common stock offering. The guidance does not reflect any gain that could be realized from the potential receipt of additional proceeds from the sale of pre-petition Adelphia trade claims or any charges relating to in-process research and development, if any, associated with the proposed Lantern acquisition. A third party appraisal of acquired intangible assets will be performed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, and that will determine whether any in-process research and development charge is appropriate.

 

Corporate management will discuss C-COR’s financial results on a conference call today at 9:45 AM (ET). For information on how to access the conference call, refer to C-COR’s news release dated March 17, 2004 (posted on the C-COR web site at http://www.c-cor.net), or contact Investor Relations at 814-231-4402 or 814-231-4438.
