C-COR REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR SECOND QUARTER

FISCAL YEAR 2004

 

Third Straight Quarter of Sequential Growth in Net Sales

 

State College, PA (January 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 second quarter of fiscal year 2004, ended December 26, 2003. Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 2004 were $61.5 million compared to $54.0 million for the same period last year, an increase of 14%. Net sales have increased in each of the last three quarters. Bookings in the second quarter were $61.9 million for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.01.

 

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal year 2004 was $29.7 million, compared to a net loss of $4.7 million for the same period last year. Earnings per share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of fiscal year 2004 were $.78, compared to a net loss per share of $.13 for the same period last year. The current year second quarter results include $21.1 million received on the sale of the Company’s trade claims against Adelphia Communications and affiliates that were previously written off, and the collection of approximately $1.6 million in delinquent accounts receivable that had previously been fully reserved. The gain on the sale of the trade claims is reflected on a separate line in the Statement of Operations, whereas the collection of the delinquent accounts receivable reduced selling and administrative expense for the quarter. The results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2004 also include software sales of $6.2 million that were recorded using the completed contract method based on customer acceptances that occurred in the quarter.

 

C-COR anticipates that net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004, ending March 26, 2004, will be between $58 and $60 million with earnings per diluted share of between $.06 and $.08. The Company anticipates that software sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004 will be lower than the second quarter based on customer acceptance schedules.

 

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 January 7, 2004 (posted on the C-COR web site at
