AVAYA COMMENTS ON FIRST FISCAL QUARTER 2003 RESULTS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 2003 BASKING RIDGE, N. J. - Avaya Inc., a leading global provider of communications networks to businesses, today said preliminary results indicate first fiscal quarter 2003 revenues in the range of $1.060 billion to $1.070 billion and a loss of between eight cents and 10 cents per diluted share from ongoing operations. The company said it ended the first fiscal quarter with a cash balance of $650 million, an increase of more than $50 million sequentially from the fourth fiscal quarter of 2002 due primarily to continued improvements in the management of accounts receivables. Avaya noted the preliminary loss per share reflects an improvement in gross margin and a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses sequentially from the fourth fiscal quarter as a result of its ongoing restructuring. The loss per share amount also includes a higher expense associated with an accrual for the company's incentive programs for the first fiscal quarter of 2003. On Jan. 21, Avaya will report first fiscal quarter 2003 results, as well as provide a business update.
