Orckit Communications Reports 2006 First Quarter Results
THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 2006 9:01 AM
- PR Newswire

TEL AVIV, Israel, April 27, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Orckit Communications Ltd. (ORCT) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006.

Revenues in the first quarter of 2006 were $25.0 million compared to $20.6 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and $33.4 million in the previous quarter ended December 31, 2005.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $5.8 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.1 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and net income of $7.6 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the previous quarter ended December 31, 2005.

The weighted average number of shares used in these calculations was 17.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, 16.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 16.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2005.

Key highlights for the quarter:

- Product deployment by KDDI Japan continued, supporting the ongoing expansion of its metro network. KDDI projects an increase in subscriber base of its VoIP Metal Plus and Triple Play Hikari Plus service offerings. KDDI is expected to continue expanding its wireline and 3G wireless service offerings utilizing Corrigent's CM-100 packet ADM across its metropolitan area network.

- Corrigent announced the support for Ethernet management functions for Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) on its 10Gbps CM-100. It is a highly advanced transport network element implementing Ethernet management tools. Evaluation results of this suite of Ethernet OAM functions were presented by KDDI R&D Labs at the OFC/NFOEC telecommunications show earlier this year.

Izhak Tamir, President of Orckit, commented: "As KDDI has discussed in its conference calls, it is progressing in its efforts to have a fully IP-based fixed-mobile converged network and is expanding its wireline footprint in Japan. We expect that this expansion will be supported by the CM-100 product architecture."

Mr. Tamir added: "Recently, there have been major developments in Japan's telecom market with the grant of three additional 3G licenses, and with the acquisition of cellular carrier Vodafone KK by Softbank. We are experiencing delays in the selection processes for metro equipment such as our CM-100. While we remain on track with product evaluations in Japan, we expect that the selection of metro equipment vendors will occur toward the end of fiscal year 2006."

Mr. Tamir concluded, "We continue to innovate and enhance our CM-100 packet ADM, adding capabilities that allow for the support of "quadruple play" services. In addition to HDTV, VoIP and data services over fixed line networks, our solution also offers support for TV over cellular services, all over a single converged platform. As carriers begin to roll out these services, we expect that demand for the CM-100 platform will increase, reaching a broader range of telecommunications carriers for a variety of applications. Product evaluation activity in Japan and in other territories continues and we expect to turn these evaluations into commercial sales."

Outlook and Guidance

In its year-end financial conference call earlier this week, KDDI discussed plans for its fiscal year that commenced April 1, 2006 and indicated its planned rate of metro expansion, which is lower than expected. We are revising guidance as follows: for the year ending December 31, 2006, we expect revenues to be in the range of $80.0 million to $100.0 million, net income to be in the range of $11.5 million to $20.0 million and net income per diluted share to be in the range of $0.68 to $1.20.

Auch wenn die Gewinne nicht ganz die Erwartungen erreichte ist Orckit immer noch in einem hoch-dynamischen High-Tech-Bereich unterwegs. Sollte ein weiterer Kunde neben KDDI gewonnen werden, geht's durch die Decken. Der Einstiegszeitpunkt ist gut...

Hier eine gelungene, wenn auch ältere Zusammenfassung von Nasdaq-Stocks.de:

Orckit Communications
-
Phoenix aus der Asche
Auch an der Börse geschehen von Zeit zu Zeit recht Wundersame Dinge. Unternehmen, die bereits als "Tot" gehandelt wurden, steigen auf einmal wie der berühmte "Phoenix aus der Asche" empor und beglücken ihre Aktionäre mit steigenden Kursen und traumhaften Renditen. Eines dieser Unternehmenswunder haben wir in der 1990 in Tel Aviv / Israel gegründeten Orckit Communications (NASDAQ: ORCT) ausgemacht.

In den 90er Jahren etablierte sich die Israelische HighTech Schmiede zu einem der führenden Anbieter von DSL- Lösungen, einschließlich ADSL, SDSL, VDSL und HDSL. Dabei konzentrierte man sich speziell auf die Entwicklung und Vermarktung von DSL-Hochgeschwindigkeitsmodems. Einer der größten Abnehmer war die Deutsche Telekom, die über 40% zum Gesamtumsatz von Orckit beigetragen hat. So erarbeitete sich Orckit bis in das Jahr 2000 die europäischen Marktführerschaft für DSL-Modems. Trotz dieser Erfolge sah das Management von Orckit Communications keine rosige Zukunft für sein DSL- Equipment Business und gründete im Jahr 2001 die US-Tochtergesellschaft Corrigent Systems. Bereits 1Jahr später wurde die Entscheidung getroffen, das komplette DSL- Equipment Business über Board geworfen, da man zunehmend mit fallenden Margen und einem massiven Umsatzrückgang zu kämpfen hatte.

Von diesem Zeitpunkt an, konzentrierte sich das Unternehmen voll und ganz auf das neu gegründete Business der US-Tochter Corrigent, die sich auf die Entwicklung von Lösungen und Produkten für den rasant wachsenden Markt für Metropolitan Area Netzwerke (MAN) spezialisiert hat. Laut Branchenexperten gehören MAN´s mit zu den größten Expansionsfaktoren innerhalb der Netzwerktechnik. Die in der Regel von einem Telekommunikationsprovider unterhaltenden Metropolitan Area Netzwerke versorgen Endanwender im Städtischen Bereich mit einem sicheren, dezentralen Breitband-Zugang sowie zahlreichen Applikationen und Mehrwertdiensten.

Da Metropolitan Area Netzwerke als Drehkreuz zwischen LAN und WAN fungieren und zudem die Basis für neue Next-Generation Netzwerkdienste (UMTS, CDMA, etc.) bildet, müssen Telekommunikationsprovider die technologische Entwicklung ihrer Netzwerke ständig voran treiben. Der Trend in dieser Entwicklung geht dabei von den traditionellen Leitungsvermittelnden Netzwerktechnologien, die vor allem für den Sprachverkehr konzipiert wurden, hin zu Paketvermittelnden Netzwerktechnologien (Gigabit Ethernet, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) ) die in der Lage sind, neben Sprachdiensten auch Daten und Videoübertragungen zu realisieren. Die nun möglichen zahlreichen Applikationen und Mehrwertdienste ( wie z.Bsp. Voice over IP, Videoconverencing, etc.) führen jedoch zwangsläufig zu einem massiven Anstieg des Datenaufkommens innerhalb des Metropolitan Area Netzwerkes. Um die damit verbundenen, auftretenden Bandbreitenengpässe zu verhindern, müssen die Kapazitäten innerhalb des MAN stark erweitert werden. Einer der zentralen Technologien beim Ausbau der Metropolitan Area Netzwerke ist die Multiplexertechnik. So werden beim Multiplexing die verschiedenen eingehenden Datenströme zu einem Datenstrom mit einer höheren Datenrate zusammengefasst und über die Glasfaser- oder Kupferleitung zur Empfängerseite transportiert, wo die Signale dann wieder in die gewünschten Datenformate umgewandelt werden. Mit Hilfe von Add/Drop-Multiplexern können Daten aus verschiedenen Quellen (z.Bsp. Carrier-Netze) und mit unterschiedlichen Protokollen (SDH, SONET, ATM) über einen Glasfaserstrang bzw. Kupferstrang versendet werden. Mit Hilfe von Multiplexern sind die Netzbetreiber in der Lage, den Nutzungsgrad, vor allem bei Glasfaserleitungen, deutlich zu erhöhen und die Übertragungskosten gleichzeitig zu senken.

27.04.06 Orckit Communications steigert im 1.Quartal 06 den Umsatz im Vergleich zum Vorjahr um +21% auf 25Mio. USD. Zeitgleich legte der Nettogewinn um +87% auf 5,8Mio. USD (0,34/Aktie) zu und übertraf damit die Analystenschätzungen um 13Cent/Aktie. Trotz der guten Zahlen, revidierte das Unternehmen seine Prgonosen für das laufende Geschäftsjahr z.T. deutlich nach unten. So erwartet Orckit Communications für 2006 bei einem Umsatz von 80-100Mio. USD nur noch einen Nettogewinn zwischen 11,5 - 20Mio. USD ($0,68 - 1,20/Aktie).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21.02.06 Orckit Communications steigern im 4.Quartal 05 den Umsatz im Vergleich zum VJ um +288% auf 33,4Mio. USD. Der Nettogewinn lag mit von 7,6Mio. USD (0,45/Aktie) 4Cent/Akie über den Analystenschätzungen. Damit schließt das Unternehmen das Geschäftsjahr 2005 mit einem Umsatz von 101,2Mio. USD und einem Nettogewinn in Höhe von 22,2Mio. USD (1,30/Aktie) deutlich über den eigenen Erwartungen ab.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20.12.05 Orckit Communications hat mit dem US-Kommunikationsdienstleister WilTel Communications, einen neuen Abnehmer für sein Metropolitan Area Network EquipmentCM-100 Packet ADM gewinnen können. WilTel Communications gehört damit zum ersten Telekommunikationsserviceprovider außerhalb Japans, die sich für die, neue revolutionäre CM-100 Packet Add/Drop-Multiplexertechnik von Orckit Communications, für den Ausbau, der eigenen Metropolitan Area Netzwerke, entschieden haben. Erst Ende Oktober 2005 kündigte der weltweit größte Glasfaserprovider Level 3 die Übernahme von WilTel Communications für mehr als 680Mio. USD an. Der größte Kunde von WilTel ist der US-Telekomriese SBC, der WilTel bis 2009 über 675Mio. USD an Umsatz bringt. Mit diesem Deal ist Orckit Communications der langerwartete Einstieg in den lukrativen US-Markt gelungen, was sich wiederum postitiv auf die zukünftige Umsatz- und Gewinnentwicklung auswirken sollte.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31.10.05 Orckit Communications steigern im 3.Quartal 05 den Umsatz im Vergleich zum Vorquartal um +16% auf 25,4Mio. USD und erwirtschaften dabei einen Nettogewinn von 7,6Mio. USD (0,46/Aktie). Damit toppte das Unternehmen die Analystenschätzungen um 22Cent/Aktie. In diesem Überschuss ist jedoch der Verkaufserlös aus der Beteiligung an der Siliquent Technologies in Höhe von 2,4Mio. USD (0,14/Aktie) enthalten. Für das 4.Quartal 05 prognostiziert das Management einen Umsatz von 32Mio. USD sowie einen Nettogewinn in Höhe von 6,9Mio. USD (0,41/Aktie), so das man am Ende des Geschäftsjahres die ursprünglichen Umsatz- und Gewinnprognosen deutlich übertreffen werden. Für das neue Geschäftsjahr 2006 rechnet das Unternehmen mit einem weiteren Umsatz- und Gewinnwachstum von 20-25%, da man vor kurzen mit einem unbenannten US-Telekommunikationsprovider einen neuen Abnehmer für sein revolutionäres CM-100 System gewonnen hat und damit einen ersten wichtigen Eintritt in den lukrativen US-Telekommunikationsmarkt vollzogen hat

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
27.10.05 Aktien von Orckit Communications brechen heute um über 30%, nachdem Gerüchte aufgekommen sind, das der bis heute einzige Kunde, KDDI Japan seine noch ausstehenden Aufträge kürzt bzw. ganz storniert. Nach Auskunft des Orckit Managements gibt es jedoch keine "fundamentalen Änderungen" im Business, so das die Umsatz- und Gewinnprognosen für das 3.Quartal und das laufende Jahr bestehen bleiben.

CM-100 Orckits Geheimwaffe für mehr Leistung in
Metropolitan Area Netzwerken (MANs)
Nach jahrelanger Entwicklung stellte die Orckit Tochter Corrigent Systems Anfang 2004 mit dem CM-100 Packet Add/Drop-Multiplexer seine neue Produktlösung für Local Area Netzwerke vor. Dabei ist den Corrigent Technikern, nach Ansicht zahlreicher Netzwerkexperten ein "revolutionäres" Stück Technik gelungen. Der größte Trumpf des CM-100 Multiplexers gegenüber Konkurrenzprodukten sind die bis heute einmaligen Kompatibilität- und Kapazitätsmöglichkeiten zwischen den verschiedenen Übertragungstechnologien und Systemen einschließlich Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), Resilient Packet Ring (RPR), Synchronous Optical Network / Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SONET/SDH) und Ethernet innerhalb eines Gerätes.

Bereits kurz nach der Produktvorstellung, unterzeichnete Orckit Communiactions seinen ersten Multi-Millionen Dollar Auftrag für die neue Multiplexingtechnologie. Der 2. größte Japanische Telekommunikationsprovider KDDI orderte insgesamt 1000Stück der Corrigent CM-100 Stationen, um sein bestehendes Metropolitan Area Netzwerk weiter auszubauen und neue Daten-, Sprach- und Videoübertragungsdienste anbieten zu können. KDDI Japan gilt als einer der innovativsten und wachstumsstärksten Telekommunikationsprovider der Welt. Herzstück des Unternehmens ist das im April 2002 in Betrieb genommene Mobilfunknetz der 3. Generation, das auf dem CDMA 2000 Standard (ähnlich UMTS) aufgebaut ist. Heute nutzen bereits mehr als 92% der über 20Millionen Mobilfunkkunden von KDDI das Mobilfunknetz der 3. Generation. Vor allem innovative Dienste wie ein mobiles Verkehrsleitsystem oder MP3-Musik-Downlaods mit Datenübertragungsraten von bis zu 2,4 Mbit/s, sowie günstige Flatrates für mobiles Breitbandsurfen verhalfen KDDI zur japanischen Marktführerschaft im Mobilfunk der 3. Generation.

Angesichts des Erfolges von KDDI zeigen nun auch weitere (bisher ungenannte) japanische Telekommunikationsprovider Interesse der Multiplexingtechnologie von Corrigent. Ein Beleg für das wachsende Interesse an den CM-100 Stationen in Japan, ist ein im Juni 2005 unterzeichnetes Vertriebsabkommen mit Oki Electric Industry Co., Ltd., einem der weltweit führenden Hersteller und Distributoren von Halbleitern und Kommunikationslösungen.

Neben dem japanischen Markt will Orckit Communications in Zukunft auch verstärkt den US- Telekommunikationsmarkt ins Visier nehmen und ernannte vor wenigen Wochen mit Warren Roddy, einen der etabliertesten Vertriebsmanager für Telekommunikationslösungen (managte u.a. den Vertrieb bei Venturi Wireless, Cisco, Pluris und PairGain) zum neuen Vertriebschef für Region Nordamerika. Branchenkenner vermuten bereits seit Anfang des Jahres, das sich die großen US-Telekommunikationsprovider AT&T, SBC und Verizon für die CM-100 Stationen von Corrigent interessieren. Nach Ansicht einiger Experten könnte bereits im 2.Halbjahr 05 mindestens einer der 3 Telekommriesen ein Pilotprojekt mit dem CM-100 Equipment von Corrigent bekannt geben. Sollte dies eintreten wäre das wohl der endgültige Durchbruch für Orckit Communications. Denn bisher generiert Orckit Communications den größten Teil seiner Umsätze aus dem Auftrag mit KDDI.

Im abgelaufenen 1.Quartal des Geschäftsjahres 2005 setzte man bereits über 20Mio. USD mit den neuen MAN-Produkten um und erzielte dabei einen Nettogewinn in Höhe von 3,14Mio. USD (0,20/Aktie). Für das laufende Geschäftsjahr erwartet das Management einen Umsatz von 90Mio. USD und einen Nettogewinn von 15Mio. USD (0,93/Aktie). Neben den hervorragenden Geschäftsaussichten für 2005, kann Orckit auch auf Bilanzieller Seite punkten. So verfügt das Unternehmen per 31.03.05 über finanzielle Mittel in Höhe von 62,6Mio. USD, denen langfristige Verbindlichkeiten von lediglich 16Mio. USD gegenüber stehen.

Fazit: Orckit Communications ist unserer Meinung nach, zwar eine sehr riskante, aber dennoch vielversprechende Investmentmöglichkeit. Der 2004 unterzeichnete Major-Auftrag von KDDI stellt ein solides Fundament für die weitere Entwicklung des Unternehmens dar. Sollte es Orckit in den nächsten 12Monaten gelingen, weitere Major-Aufträge für die Corrigent CM-100 Stationen an Land zu ziehen, wäre dies nicht nur ein überlebenswichtiger Meilenstein, sondern auch das endgültige Comeback für das Unternehmen. Neben möglichen Großaufträgen, sorgt zudem die Gerüchteküche für zusätzliche Kursphantasie. Das Israelische Technologie Magazin "The Market" berichtete vor wenigen Wochen, das der weltweit führende Netzwerkausrüster Cisco Systems ein Auge auf Corrigent / Orckit geworfen habe. Laut Branchenkennern laufe bei Cisco bereits eine interne Prüfung für eine mögliche Übernahmen in Höhe von 800-900Mio. USD. Aber auch dem US-Mobilfunkchiphersteller und Netzwerkausrüster Broadcom wird Interesse an der Corrigent-Technologie nachgesagt. Bisher gab es jedoch keinerlei Stellungnahmen seitens Cisco, Broadcom und Corrigent zu den aktuellen Spekulationen.

Wir empfehlen risikobereiten Anlegern sich trotz des bereits hohen Kursniveaus ($28,27/Aktie) erste Positionen aufzubauen und diese bei leichten Kurskorrekturen zu erweitern. Orckit Communications haben mit dem von Corrigent entwickelten MAN-Equipment, speziell mit den CM-100 Multiplexer ein "revolutionäres" Stück Technik erschaffen, das in seiner Kompatibilität und Funktionalität einmalig am Markt ist. Jetzt hängt vieles davon ab, ob es dem Unternehmen gelingt, weitere Major-Aufträge an Land zuziehen. Sollte dies eintreffen rechnen wir mit einem weiteren, massiven Kursanstieg Richtung 50USD.

Tefel, bist Du denn noch dabei? Nichts für schwache Nerven... gelle? Fundamentale Gründe für diesen lawinenartigen Kursverfall sehe ich erstmal keine. Vielleicht wissen da einige mehr?!? Oder ein Fond steigt aus?!? Ohne technische Gegenreaktion sollte der Verfall aber nicht mehr weitergehen.

[ehrenwort]

... dann hoffen wir mal, dass das der Boden war. Die Aussicht sind nachwievor sehr spannend. Wenn Orckit einen weiteren Kunden neben KDDI gewinnen kann, dann stehen wir über 40 EUR, wetten?


Die IR-Abteilung meint zum Kursverfall übrigens folgendes:

----
... the decrease in Orckit's share price was the downward revision in full-year 2006 guidance that management gave on the first quarter earnings conference call in April. There were 2 primary reasons for this revision:

1: KDDI - several days before Orckit reported earnings, KDDI announced its results and provided an update on its plans for the coming fiscal year. During this presentation, KDDI indicated its plan to reduce fixed-line capex by ~30% for the year that began April 1st. As Orckit has not yet received formal purchasing commitments from KDDI for this fiscal year, management reduced its forecasts according to the general projections given by KDDI.

2: New customers - management's initial expectation was to have one additional contract in place by the end of the second quarter. This contract was expected to be with a Japanese carrier. However, in light of recent changing dynamics in the Japanese market, they have indicated that this contract likely will not come until late in the year. These delays were caused by M&A activity among potential customers, as well as delays in the planned network deployments.

Ob das endlich der Startschuss für nen ordentlichen Rebound war? Heute sehen wir in USA einen 2stelligen Kursanstieg!



Hier die letzte Nachricht:

Corrigent Releases TDM-to-Ethernet Interworking on the CM-100 Packet Transport Solution
Streamlines Transport Networks for Ethernet Service Support

San Jose, CA, June 26, 2006 – Corrigent Systems, a leading provider of packet transport solutions for next-generation transport networks, announced today that it has released TDM-to-Ethernet suite of interfaces for the CM-100 that enables carriers to easily aggregate Ethernet and other packet services from their existing TDM access networks. Using the CM-100, service providers can now offer popular Ethernet services over existing TDM access networks and aggregate these services efficiently on 10Gbps packet rings. This capability simplifies their networks, eliminates complicated interconnection equipment, lowers costs and creates the opportunity to quickly deliver Ethernet services using existing copper networks.

The following new interfaces are now available on the CM-100:
• 24-port DS3/E3 clear-channel user interface module with Ethernet-over-PDH termination, as well as PPP to Ethernet Layer-2 interworking
• PPP/MLPPP to Ethernet Layer-2 interworking on 6-port DS3/E3 channelized user interface module

Each of the modules also supports transport of native TDM channels, and the TDM-to-Ethernet interworking capability is configurable on a per-channel basis.

Service providers around the world deliver Ethernet and other data services over various access networks. TDM networks and circuits are used in most cases where fiber is not available to reach end customers. Ethernet E-Line, E-LAN, as well as access to Layer-3 VPN services are delivered in those cases over DS1/E1, bundled DS1/E1, or DS3/E3 circuits.

The Layer-2 interworking function on both DS3 interface types is designed to terminate PPP and/or bundled MLPPP sessions and map each individual connection to a standard Ethernet VLAN. Among the economic benefits this functionality will bring to service providers, is the ability to replace channelized TDM interfaces to service terminating network elements, taking advantage of low cost Ethernet interfaces. These interfaces provide 1:1 and 1:N protection and support classification based on IP header priority bit information.

With these new capabilities, Corrigent’s Packet Transport solution delivers savings that are unmatched by other available transport and aggregation solutions, and facilitates the migration to Ethernet-centric networks.

wuerde ich die Finger weglassen, von dieser Amischrottklitsche, die sind doch nur ein Anbieter unter vielen, abhaengig von einer guten Entwicklung der US Wirtschaft.
Da diese aber eher schwaecheln wird, geht das Teil wohl schnell wieder unter.

das ist bekannt.
bleibt die Tatsache, das man in direkte Konkurrenz zu den führenden Anbietern aus Asien und USA tritt.

der Heimatmarkt dürfte kaum für Wachstum reichen und die Amerikaner sind bekanntermassen sehr patriotisch, wenn es darum geht Aufträge zu vergeben....

good luck

Orckit Communications Reports 2006 Third Quarter Results

TEL AVIV, Israel, October 31 -- Orckit Communications Ltd. (Nasdaq: ORCT) today reported results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $15.0 million compared to $25.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and $14.7 million in the previous quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was $985,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.6 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and net income of $294,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the previous quarter ended June 30, 2006.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $54.6 million compared to $67.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $7.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to net income of $14.6 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Key highlights for the quarter:

- Product evaluations of CM-100 Packet Transport Systems continued with several carriers, primarily in Asia. Commercial selections by these carriers are expected to occur in 2007.
- Corrigent extended its Packet Transport Solution with new platforms: the CM-104 and the CM-21. These additions are designed to allow service providers more flexibility in the deployment of the CM product line, provide the access component in Corrigent’s end-to-end packet transport solution and address service applications which were not covered prior to the release of these new platforms.
Izhak Tamir, President of Orckit, commented, “As video applications continue to draw increased interest for high wideband solutions in metro and access networks, Corrigent’s product line is well positioned to provide telecom service providers with a full and efficient platform for converged networks of data, voice, video and cellular services. Increasing demand for these high bandwidth-demanding services is expected to propel commercial deployments for innovative platforms such as our CM product line.”
Mr. Tamir continued, “KDDI, our most significant customer, is progressing in its efforts to have a fully IP-based fixed-mobile converged network, while enjoying subscriber growth for its data services over both advanced cellular and wireline offerings. However, following the significant network expansion KDDI has undertaken using the CM-100 product, additional expansion in its 2006 fiscal year, which ends in April 2007, will be low. Nevertheless, we believe that we are well positioned to benefit from the continued growth in KDDI’s subscriber base for data and video services.”
Mr. Tamir concluded: "Our recent product introductions address market opportunities and are a result of our intense R&D efforts. As market demand for bandwidth increases, we intend to continue our efforts to offer telecom carriers innovative, high-capacity packetized solutions targeting this new area for converged transport technology."
Outlook and Guidance
For the year ending December 31, 2006, we expect revenues to be approximately $63.0 million, net income to be $4.1 million and net income per diluted share to be $0.25.

sophisticated packet aware transport platforms.


Izhak Tamir, President of Orckit, commented, "In 2006, we further established our market position through ongoing product evaluations with prominent telecom carriers. We enhanced our CM product offering, making it a more robust metro transport solution for converged voice, data and video service network architecture. In 2007, we plan to continue to promote our product architecture with targeted telecom carriers, while focusing our development efforts on the release of highly innovative products for the emerging area of converged metro carrier networks. Our family of products is designed to target very high bandwidth-intensive applications such as High- Definition IPTV and 3.5G wireless video services, as well as other video applications."
Mr. Tamir continued, "We are awaiting final plans from KDDI, our most significant customer, with respect to its network build up for its 2007 fiscal year, which begins in April 2007. We believe that we are well positioned to benefit from the continued growth in KDDI's subscriber base for advanced data and video services over both cellular and wireline networks."
Mr. Tamir concluded: "We are encouraged by the interest in Corrigent's CM product offering. We see potential from carriers in Asia and Europe, as well as North America, that are looking for metro product solutions with the ability to converge TDM and data services at ultra high-bandwidth over a unified platform. While other telecom equipment suppliers have recently begun to address converged transport product architecture, we believe that our innovative, comprehensive product offering is well positioned in the high- capacity packetized transport solutions market. We are looking forward to several product selection processes by telecom carriers that are expected to conclude in 2007."
Outlook and Guidance
For the quarter ending March 31, 2007, we expect revenues to be approximately $4.0 million, net loss to be approximately $6.3 million and net loss per share to be approximately $(0.40).

Corrigent signs a long term agreement with Media Broadcast GmbH for Deutsche Telekom’s customer in Germany

Tel Aviv, Israel – February 6th, 2008 – Corrigent Systems, a leading provider of Carrier Ethernet transport solutions for next-generation service provider networks, today announced that its CM-100 and CM-4000 product lines were selected by Media Broadcast as a main network infrastructure building block for network solutions deployed by Deutsche Telekom’s wholesale business unit, and leased to a leading cable operator in Germany. Deployments in Lower Saxony and Bavaria begin this year, and rollout in further regions for the leading cable operator are expected to span over the next years as part of a 15-year agreement. First shipments of the CM-100 have commenced.

Hier noch was aus yahoo finace: "And shares of Orckit Communications Ltd. shot up after the smallcap said it got a contract in Germany to provide ethernet infrastructure for cable systems. The Israeli company did not disclose the terms of the deal with Deutsche Telekom AG, but traders were enthusiastic, sending shares up $2, or $29.5 percent, to $8.79, from their close at $6.79 Tuesday." Bin gespannt, wann Orckit den entsprechenden Umsatz berichtet und was dann passiert....

Corrigent Systems touts big win with Deutsche Telekom

FEBRUARY 6, 2008 By Meghan Fuller Hanna -- Corrigent Systems' (search for Corrigent Systems) vice president of marketing Gady Rosenfeld says the Deutsche Telekom win represents a series of "firsts" for the company: It is its first European customer, its first cable operator customer, and its first win with the recently introduced CM-4000 product.

Media Broadcast GmbH (formerly Deutsche Telekom's Media & Broadcast Unit before it was sold last month to French company TDF) has selected Corrigent's CM-100 and CM-4000 products as the main infrastructure building block of a new network to be build by Deutsche Telekom's wholesale business unit and leased to a leading cable operator in Germany.

"It is interesting," says Rosenfeld of DT's deployment. "Along with developing their own triple-play offering, they will now have a vested interest in some of their competitors' offerings through a network solution they are going to build for them and lease to them."

Initial deployments for DT's cable customer will occur in the two largest states in Germany, Bavaria and Lower Saxony, which encompass some of the country's largest metropolitan areas, including Hannover, Nuremberg, and Munich.

Rosenfeld says this first cable operator deployment actually serves a greater number of subscribers than Corrigent's largest existing contract, which was signed in 2004 with Japan's KDDI. (See "KDDI selects Corrigent to support triple-play rollout.") "This opportunity is probably as significant as KDDI has been to us," he admits. "With KDDI, we sold $100 million the first year. I'm not sure it will be that fast here, but the overall account should be very significant. We are the exclusive supplier for this network build."

In fact, Corrigent is optimistic the 15-year contract will prove even more significant going forward. "This is really a standard offering Deutsche Telekom as a wholesale carrier is going to have for cable operators in Europe," reports Rosenfeld. "They are going to start with this first cable operator, but once they are comfortable with the network they have put in place for that operator, they are going to be able to replicate that with other operators in Europe. Deutsche Telekom is the largest telecom company in Europe," he adds, "and we think there are additional opportunities there to pursue."

Traditionally, Corrigent has not targeted the North American cable MSO market, but this roundabout cable win with DT--where the end customer is a cable operator--may have the company rethinking its strategy, says Rosenfeld. "This is sort of a hybrid case of a telco building infrastructure for cable operators," he notes. "But obviously, now that we are going to have this significant installed base, we're going to leverage it with other prospects in the cable MSO market and get their feedback on what we can do for them."

Corrigent says its 10-Gbit/sec CM platforms combine Ethernet transport and full support for legacy SONET/SDH capabilities and MPLS and RPR technologies with end-to-end network management, to allow cost-effective and resilient delivery of video, voice, and data multi-play services.

The CM-4000, now generally available, supports the gradual migration from today's broadcast-centric services to future personalized video services, offering what the company claims is the highest level of quality of experience (QoE) with the capacity scaling capabilities required to address the expected growth in on-demand services.

Orckit Communications Reports 2007 Year-end and Fourth Quarter Results

TEL AVIV, Israel, February 12, 2008 -- Orckit Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ: ORCT) today reported results for the year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007.
Revenues in the fourth quarter of 2007 were $1.8 million compared to $1.7 million in the previous quarter ended September 30, 2007 and $9.0 million in the comparable quarter last year.
Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 was $6.4 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $6.5 million, or $(0.41) per share, for the previous quarter ended September 30, 2007 and a net loss of $1.9 million, or $(0.12) per share, for the fourth quarter of 2006. Results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007 include one-time income of $14.2 million derived from a payment to the Company in connection with the settlement of a commercial dispute related to the Company’s legacy operations.
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $9.9 million compared to $63.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $12.1 million, or $(0.76) per share, compared to net income of $5.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2006. Results for the year ended December 31, 2007 include the abovementioned one-time income of $14.2 million, as well as financial income of $2.6 million which resulted from adjustments due to the conversion terms of the Company’s convertible notes issued in March 2007. There was no such financial income last year.
Key Highlights for the quarter:
- Media Broadcast GmbH selected Corrigent‘s CM-100 and CM-4000 Carrier Ethernet Transport switches as the main network infrastructure building block for network solutions for a leading cable operator in Germany. Shipments are underway.
- This initial deployment with a leading European cable operator marks the first selection of Corrigent’s CM products by a cable network. The Company believes that this commercial selection demonstrates the value of its CM products to cable operators seeking to upgrade their infrastructure in order to support scalable and reliable delivery of high-definition and personalized, on-demand video services.




Izhak Tamir, President of Orckit, commented, “Our recent customer win marks three important firsts for Orckit and the CM family of products;

· the first customer win in the European market,
· the first deployment by a cable operator, which opens important new markets for our product and technology, and;
· the first commercial selection of the CM-4000.
“This selection came following two years of intensive testing and evaluation by the operator and our partners, and it speaks to the significant value our products and technology can bring, not only to telecom carriers, but in the cable operators market as well.”
“We have been aggressive in our pursuit of additional opportunities since releasing the CM-4000. We are seeing growing interest from telecom operators, who represent the traditional target market for the CM products, as well as from cable operators, signifying an expansion of the market opportunity for the CM products.”
Mr. Tamir added, “Compared to alternative solutions, the Corrigent CM product families enable cable operators to build high quality, cost effective multi-play networks. Corrigent's products support differentiated Quality of Service (QoS) over a statistical RPR multiplexed packet network that provides optimized bandwidth utilization, while complying with the service level agreement of each customer.”

Mr. Tamir continued, “Corrigent’s ability to deliver the promise of “transport like” quality in metro ethernet networks enables the upgrade of cable metro networks that are easier to provision, and support advanced tools for Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM), resulting in an expected reduction in both capital and operating expenses for cable operators. Network changes, such as adding or removing nodes or head-end servers, are easy to implement without any down time or changes to the existing network, making our products a compelling investment for cable operators as they compete with established telecom service providers.”
He concluded, “As 2008 begins, we are enthusiastic about the future of our carrier ethernet transport product line. We expect to turn industry recognition of our products into additional commercial selections in 2008. Media Broadcast will begin to contribute to our revenue in the first quarter of 2008, and it is expected to increase as the year progresses. We expect further contribution in 2009 as deployments expand.”









Outlook and Guidance
For the quarter ending March 31, 2008, we expect revenues to be approximately $1.6 million, with net loss of approximately $8.9 million and net loss per share of approximately $(0.55). This guidance does not take into account financial income or loss due to valuation of conversion terms included in our $25.8 million principal amount of convertible subordinated notes that were issued in March 2007. Such income or loss is subject to certain factors, including our share price, and cannot be estimated at this time.
