Redback Networks Expects Lower Third Quarter 2001 Results
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 25, 2001--Redback Networks Inc. (Nasdaq:RBAK - news) today announced that it expects revenue in the current fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2001 will be approximately $35 to $40 million. These projections are preliminary and subject to change as final orders are processed through the end of the quarter.

``With the uncertainty surrounding the events of September 11, the Company saw several of its September sales orders and revenue shipments rescheduled or cancelled. The economic effects of these events are aggravating an already weak telecommunications equipment market, causing the timing of a recovery to be difficult to predict,`` said Kevin DeNuccio, president and chief executive officer at Redback. ``As a result, the Company will be taking near term actions to significantly reduce its cost structure. These proposed actions will likely result in charges for excess inventory and commitments, goodwill and other asset impairment, and restructuring.``

Redback`s fiscal third quarter 2001 earnings conference is scheduled for October 10th at 2:00 p.m. (PT). The Company will review the quarter, as well as it outlook for the remainder of the year, at that time. Information on these calls can also be found on Redback Network`s website at www.redback.com under Investor Center.
