Ciena Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cien#NYSE">CIEN</a>) can be considered a legacy company in the computer and technology sector when it comes to the Internet. It was one of the original manufacturers of optical fiber, which provided networking switches and connectivity solutions since 1992. The company has managed to stay relevant, unlike so many internet boom companies, and remains on the cutting edge of the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution. Ciena is essential to the AI boom as it provides one of the crucial elements required&nbsp;for&nbsp;AI deployment: high bandwidth&nbsp;and low latency connectivity.
Ciena operates in the computer and technology sector, competing with networking companies like Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/csco#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>), Juniper Networks Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jnpr#NYSE">JNPR</a>), which was acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprises Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hpe#NYSE">HPE</a>), and Infinera Co. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/infn#NASDAQ">INFN</a>) which is being acquired by Nokia Oyj (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nok#NYSE">NOK</a>).
<h2>How Ciena Is Essential to the AI Revolution </h2>
Ciena is a leader in the optical networking segment, as its products enable long-distance, high-capacity data transmission solutions for the backbones of numerous networks. Data transmission volumes will only grow, driven by AI deployment and cloud computing. Its optical transceivers enable low-latency transmission, which is essential for AI applications to relay responsiveness and fast performance. Its Blue Planet AI-powered software-defined network (SDN) enables network operators to program, automate, and manage networks, orchestrate end-to-end services, and scale bandwidth on demand as needed.
<h2>Cloud Providers Lead the Recovery &nbsp;</h2>
Ciena is approaching positive normalization after many volatile years driven by the pandemic shortage and post-pandemic inventory glut. Cloud providers are leading the recovery, building out networks to support cloud and growing AI traffic.&nbsp;Data centers are a big chunk of Ciena&#39;s cloud provider clients. Three of the four major cloud providers are driving demand for Ciena&#39;s 400 ZR, a high-capacity datacenter interconnect (DCI) capable of transmitting 400 GB ethernet over DCI links, targeting a minimum of 80 kilometers.
Ciena&#39;s other client group, service providers, is experiencing a gradual recovery as the inventory glut is digested. Ciena still expects the U.S. to recover fully in a few quarters, while Europe continues to lag due to geopolitical and macroeconomic headwinds.
<h2>Gloomy Headline Numbers Underscore Improving Metrics </h2>
Ciena&#39;s third-quarter of 2024 earnings report was a sign of relief as results underscore the recovery occurring, enabling a turnaround after many negative quarters. The company reported EPS of 35 cents, beating analyst expectations by 6 cents. GAAP net income was $14.2 million, down from $29.7 million last year. Adjusted net income was $50.8 million, which was also lower than the $89.1 million non-GAAP income in the year-ago period. Revenue fell 11.8% YoY to $942.3 million, which was better than expected compared to the consensus estimates of $928.31 million. Ciena reported a strong book-to-bill ratio above 1, indicating stronger demand that it can fulfill.
<h2>Ciena Issues Flat Guidance </h2>
Ciena expects revenues of $1.06 billion to $1.14 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024 versus $1.12 billion in consensus estimates. Adjusted gross margin is expected to be in the low 40% range, and adjusted operating expenses are expected to be around $350 million. Full-year 2024 revenues are estimated at around $4 billion, with a 4% to 8% CAGR long-term. CIEN stock tumbled 7% the following days.
Ciena CEO Gary Smith commented, &quot;We delivered strong results for the fiscal third quarter that reflect growing momentum with cloud providers and continued gradual recovery with service providers. With leading innovation that is well-aligned with our customers&#39; focus on building cloud and AI-capable infrastructures, we are well-positioned to continue to gain share and deliver profitable growth.&quot;
On Oct. 2, 2024, Ciena announced a $1 billion stock buyback program commencing in fiscal 2025 and ending in fiscal 2027. CIEN stock surged 7% on the announcement.
<h2>CIEN Is Forming a Potential ABCD Reversal Pattern </h2>
An ABCD pattern is a harmonic reversal pattern comprised of two higher peaks and one higher low. The pattern resembles a rising lightning bolt. A market structure high (MSL) sell trigger often triggers the reversal.
<img alt="Ciena CIEN stock chart" class="aligncenter" src="https://www.marketbeat.com/logos/articles/med_20241006191744_charta-cien.jpg" style="height:753px; width:915px" />
CIEN stock initially sold off on its earnings report and guidance to a swing low of $50.83, forming the C-point. Shares rallied higher through the B-point pre-earnings peak at $59.42 to continue higher toward an imminent D-point, which could trigger a reversal. The daily anchored VWAP support is rising at $56.78. The daily relative strength index (RSI) is rising to the 75-band. Fibonacci (Fib) pullback support levels are at $62.91, $57.69, $53.76, and $50.83. 
Ciena&#39;s average consensus price target is $61.00, and its highest analyst price target&nbsp;is&nbsp;$68.00.&nbsp;Analysts have given it 10 Buy ratings and three Hold ratings.

Amazon Disagrees With Court's Decision In Nokia Case, Confident In Quick Resolution; Confirms Fire TV Devices Remain Available And Expresses Disappointment In Nokia's Actions

Nokia Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nok#NYSE">NOK</a>) recently inked an agreement with iSAT Africa for an undisclosed amount to enhance broadband connectivity across rural areas in Liberia. The three-year deal spanning more than 200 sites in the West African country aims to bridge the digital divide by providing a reliable, affordable and easily accessible network to underserved rural communities.
<h2>How NOK Likely Secured the Deal</h2>
Nokia is well-positioned for the ongoing technology cycle, given the strength of its end-to-end portfolio. Its installed base of high-capacity AirScale products, which enables customers to upgrade to 5G quickly, is growing fast. It is driving the transition of global enterprises into smart virtual networks by creating a single network for all services, converging mobile and fixed broadband, IP routing and optical networks with the software and services to manage them. Leveraging state-of-the-art technology, it is transforming the way people and things communicate and connect.
The company aims to create new business and licensing opportunities in the consumer ecosystem. It facilitates customers to move away from an economy-of-scale network operating model to demand-driven operations by offering easy programmability and flexible automation required to support dynamic operations, reduce complexity and improve efficiency. It seeks to expand its business into targeted, high-growth and high-margin vertical markets to address growth opportunities beyond its traditional primary markets.
<h2>What This Collaboration Brings on the Table</h2>
Nokia&#39;s partnership with this integrated communications services provider that specializes in broadcasting &amp; rural connectivity in Africa and the Middle East will seek to drive socio-economic development in the remote areas of Liberia. Per the deal, Nokia will deploy its AirScale radio portfolio along with MantaRay Network Management solutions for effective monitoring and management capabilities to address critical challenges such as limited coverage and the wide digital divide in rural regions.
<h2>Will NOK Stock Benefit?</h2>
Nokia has emerged as one of the leading players in the development of advanced 5G technology and is at the forefront of extending 5G use cases in various industries. It has laid a strong foundation of innovation through substantial infrastructure investments. This has led to the establishment of an impressive portfolio comprising approximately 20,000 patent families, including more than 6,000 patent families that are deemed crucial to 5G technology.
The collaboration with iSAT Africa is likely to propel the stock on incremental revenue generation and inducement of similar deals from other carriers in the future. The agreement is also expected to strengthen Nokia&#39;s position as a leading telecommunications equipment provider in the region.
The stock has gained 16.7% over the past six months compared with the industry&#39;s growth of 12.9%.

CoreWeave Has Selected Nokia To Deploy Its IP Routing And Optical Transport Portfolios Globally As Part Of An Extensive Backbone Build-out, With Immediate Roll-out Across Its Data Centers In US And Europe

Nokia Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) is actively searching for a new CEO as it struggles with declining sales and a depressed share price.
What Happened: The Finnish telecom equipment giant has approached potential candidates to replace current CEO Pekka Lundmark, who has been at the helm since 2020. The search is ongoing, with at least one headhunter involved in the process, Financial Times reported <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/5f086aee-91b9-421a-9f32-c33e67b1af7f">citing</a>, people familiar with the matter.
Lundmark, who initially stabilized the company, has faced criticism for failing to boost revenues. Despite restructuring efforts and cost-cutting measures, Nokia&#8217;s sales remain lower than they were in 2016, following its €15.6 billion acquisition of Alcatel-Lucent.
Additionally, Nokia is seeking a new chair as Sari Baldauf approaches her 70th birthday next year. Outsiders have been contacted, and the new chair is not expected to come from the current board, according to the report.
In a statement, Nokia said, &#8220;The Board fully supports President and CEO Pekka Lundmark and is not undergoing a process to replace him.&#8221; The company emphasized its ongoing assessment of leadership succession plans, according to the report.
The search for new leadership comes as Nokia grapples with sluggish spending by telecom operators and increased competition from rivals like Ericsson and Huawei.

Why It Matters: Nokia&#8217;s leadership shakeup comes on the heels of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39834407/nokias-q2-earnings-record-low-revenue-as-5g-investment-slows-annual-outlook-cut-stock-slides">several significant developments</a>. In July, Nokia reported a fiscal second-quarter 2024 net sales decline of 18% year-on-year, marking a record low since 2015. 
This drop was attributed to weak investment in mobile network upgrades, particularly in the 5G equipment market, prompting Nokia to overhaul its network infrastructure division.
In June, Nokia announced its acquisition of Infinera Corporation in a transaction valuing the company at $6.65 per share, or an enterprise value of $2.3 billion. This acquisition aimed to bolster Nokia&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/06/39537794/nokia-to-acquire-infinera-infineras-stock-soars">optical networking capabilities</a>. 
Furthermore, last year, Nokia disclosed a multi-year agreement with AT&amp;T Inc. to deploy next-generation fiber access technology. This five-year deal includes upgrading AT&amp;T's current fiber infrastructure and implementing next-gen <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40690110/nokia-and-at-t-partner-for-next-gen-fiber-network-details">technologies for future expansions</a>.
Additionally, Nokia teamed up with CommScope Holding Company, Inc. to develop a solution for seamless in-building and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40682168/nokia-teams-up-with-commscopes-ruckus-for-next-gen-fiber-wi-fi-solutions-details">campus-wide connectivity</a>.

AT&T Shares Are On The Rise: What's Going On

Nokia Oyj&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) disclosed a multi-year agreement with AT&amp;T Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) to deploy next-generation fiber <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nokia.com/about-us/news/releases/2024/09/03/nokia-signs-strategic-deal-with-att-to-accelerate-future-ready-fiber-broadband-growth/" rel="noreferrer noopener">access</a> technology.
The five-year deal includes upgrading AT&amp;T&#8217;s current fiber infrastructure and implementing next-gen technologies for future expansions.
Nokia plans to supply its Lightspan MF and Altiplano platforms to support AT&amp;T&#8217;s extensive fiber network, which passed 27.8 million total fiber locations as of the second quarter of 2024.
The company&#8217;s fiber solutions enable AT&amp;T to swiftly build a future-ready network, supporting next-gen PON technologies and enhanced automation through the Altiplano Access Controller.
Sandy Motley, President of Fixed Networks at Nokia, said,&nbsp;&#8220;This collaboration is a major milestone in our mission to connect more people and businesses. Our fiber solution opens the door to a full range of PON technologies available on the same platform and fiber.&#8221;
&#8220;This includes 10/25G PON today and eventually 50/100G PON in the future. Ultimately this can help operators like AT&amp;T make the most of their existing fiber broadband networks today and in the future.&#8221;
As per Reuters, the deal follows Nokia&#8217;s loss of a major contract with AT&amp;T to Ericsson (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ERIC#NASDAQ">ERIC</a>), which AT&amp;T selected in December to build a telecom network covering 70% <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/23/12/36085721/ericsson-shares-jump-after-winning-largest-deal-financially-in-its-history-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">of its U.S. wireless traffic by late 2026.</a>

Nokia Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>) shares are trading lower premarket Friday after the company denied reports of selling its mobile-networks business.
Earlier, citing people familiar with the matter, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-08-29/nokia-mobile-networks-assets-said-to-draw-interest-from-samsung">Bloomberg </a>reported that Nokia&#8217;s mobile networks assets are drawing preliminary interest from suitors, including Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>).
The company disclosed that it has no <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nokia.com/about-us/news/releases/2024/08/29/nokia-comments-on-trading-activity-of-its-stock/" rel="noreferrer noopener">announcements</a> related to the speculations and that no insider project on the matter exists.
Nokia stated that it is dedicated to the success of its Mobile Networks business, viewing it as a crucial asset for both the company and its customers.
Nokia further added that this year, the business had made notable strides in optimizing costs while maintaining its product roadmap, securing new deals, and expanding its share with existing clients.
Today, in a separate release, Nokia announced that it is expanding its Fixed <a href="https://www.nokia.com/about-us/news/releases/2024/08/30/nokia-expands-its-rd-footprint-in-india-with-fixed-networks-largest-lab-in-chennai-tamil-nadu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Networks</a> R&amp;D facility in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, with support from the state government. The new lab will be one of Nokia&#8217;s largest and will focus on advancing technologies to bridge the digital divide.
Vimalkumar Kothandaraman, Head of Fixed Networks for Asia Pacific at Nokia, said, &#8220;This investment highlights our dedication to India and global technology advancements, and allows us to further leverage the abundant talent pool in the region. This MoU solidifies our collaboration with the Tamil Nadu government to jointly drive telecom industry innovations, expanding our world-class R&amp;D hub in Chennai.&#8221;

Sales hit a record low, mainly due to weak investment in mobile network upgrades affecting the 5G equipment market.
