Notes to Investors
Forward-Looking Statements. You are encouraged to review
the Investors section of our website, where we routinely post press
releases, Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings,
recent news, financial results, supplemental financial information,
and other announcements. From time to time we exclusively post
material information to this website along with other disclosure
channels that we use. This press release contains certain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
These statements are based on current expectations, forecasts,
assumptions and other information available to the Company as of
the date hereof. Forward-looking statements include statements
regarding Ciena's expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies
regarding the future and can be identified by forward-looking words
such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect,"
"intend," "may," "should," "will," and "would" or similar words.
Forward-looking statements in this release include: "Our strong
fiscal fourth quarter financial results were better than expected
as we benefited from some favorable supply chain developments in
the second half of the quarter," said Gary Smith, president and CEO
of Ciena. "Looking ahead, we expect to deliver outsized revenue
growth in fiscal 2023 given our significant backlog and continued
signs of gradual supply improvement. And, we remain confident that
the durability of secular demand drivers and our strategic
investments to expand our addressable market position us to deliver
strong revenue growth over the next several years."
Ciena's actual results, performance or events may differ
materially from these forward-looking statements made or implied
due to a number of risks and uncertainties relating to Ciena's
business, including: the effect of broader economic and market
conditions on our customers and their business; our ability to
execute our business and growth strategies; the impact of supply
chain constraints or disruptions; the duration and severity of the
COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of countermeasures taken to
mitigate its spread on macroeconomic conditions, economic activity,
demand for our technology solutions, short- and long-term changes
in customer or end user needs, continuity of supply chain, our
business operations, liquidity and financial results; changes in
network spending or network strategy by our customers; seasonality
and the timing and size of customer orders, including our ability
to recognize revenue relating to such sales; the level of
competitive pressure we encounter; the product, customer and
geographic mix of sales within the period; changes in foreign
currency exchange rates; factors beyond our control such as natural
disasters, climate change, acts of war or terrorism, geopolitical
events, including but not limited to the ongoing conflict between
Ukraine and Russia, and public health emergencies; changes in tax
or trade regulations, including the imposition of tariffs, duties
or efforts to withdraw from or materially modify international
trade agreements; and the other risk factors disclosed in Ciena’s
periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) including its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the
SEC on September 7, 2022 and its Annual report on Form 10-K to be
filed with the SEC. Ciena assumes no obligation to update any
forward-looking information included in this press release.
Non-GAAP Presentation of Quarterly and Annual Results.
This release includes non-GAAP measures of Ciena's gross profit,
operating expense, income from operations, earnings before
interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted
EBITDA, and measures of net income and net income per share. In
evaluating the operating performance of Ciena's business,
management excludes certain charges and credits that are required
by GAAP. These items share one or more of the following
characteristics: they are unusual and Ciena does not expect them to
recur in the ordinary course of its business; they do not involve
the expenditure of cash; they are unrelated to the ongoing
operation of the business in the ordinary course; or their
magnitude and timing is largely outside of Ciena's control.
Management believes that the non-GAAP measures below provide
management and investors useful information and meaningful insight
to the operating performance of the business. The presentation of
these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition
to Ciena's GAAP results and these measures are not intended to be a
substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with GAAP. Ciena's non-GAAP measures and the related
adjustments may differ from non-GAAP measures used by other
companies and should only be used to evaluate Ciena's results of
operations in conjunction with our corresponding GAAP results. To
the extent not previously disclosed in a prior Ciena financial
results press release, Appendices A and B to this press release set
forth a complete GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation of the non-GAAP
measures contained in this release.

* * *
The adjusted (non-GAAP) measures above and their reconciliation
to Ciena's GAAP results for the periods presented reflect
adjustments relating to the following items:
- Share-based compensation - a non-cash expense incurred in
accordance with share-based compensation accounting guidance.
- Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy - a program introduced by the
Government of Canada to offset a portion of employee wages for a
limited period in response to COVID-19 outbreak.
- Significant asset impairments and restructuring costs - costs
incurred as a result of restructuring activities taken to align
resources with perceived market opportunities, the redesign of
business processes and, in fiscal 2022, a $3.8 million impairment
charge due to Ciena's decision to suspend its business operations
in Russia in response to the conflict in Ukraine.
- Amortization of intangible assets - a non-cash expense arising
from the acquisition of intangible assets, principally developed
technologies and customer-related intangibles, that Ciena is
required to amortize over its expected useful life.
- Acquisition and integration costs - includes financial, legal
and accounting advisor expenses related to our acquisition activity
in fiscal 2022. Acquisition and integration costs for fiscal 2021
include costs of acquisition compensation associated with a
three-year earn-out arrangement related to the DonRiver acquisition
in fiscal 2018.
- Unrealized (gain)loss on cost method equity investment -
reflects a change in the carrying value of a certain cost method
equity investment.
- Non-GAAP tax provision - consists of current and deferred
income tax expense commensurate with the level of adjusted income
before income taxes and utilizes a current, blended U.S. and
foreign statutory annual tax rate of 20.2% for fiscal quarter 2022
and 20.5% for fiscal quarter 2021. This rate may be subject to
change in the future, including as a result of changes in tax
policy or tax strategy.
