JDS UNIPHASE ANNOUNCES 2005 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Revenue Increases 11% Sequentially
San Jose, California, October 27, 2004 – JDS Uniphase Corporation (NASDAQ: JDSU and TSX: JDU.NV) today reported results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2004.
Net revenue for the first quarter was $194.5 million, and net loss was $36.0 million, or $0.02 per share. This compares to net revenue of $174.5 million and a net loss of $21.7 million, or $0.02 per share, reported in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, and to net revenue of $147.4 million and a net loss of $28.1 million, or $0.02 per share, for the first quarter ended September 30, 2003.
On a non-GAAP basis, net loss in the first quarter was $14.1 million, or $0.01 per share, as compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $11.9 million, or $0.01 per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, and to a non-GAAP net loss of $13.5 million, or $0.01 per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2004.
On a non-GAAP EBITDA basis (non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), the Company lost $5.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, as compared to a loss of $6.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, and to a loss of $18.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2003.
“Deliberate customer driven execution and improved operational control delivered strong sequential revenue growth for the fourth consecutive quarter,” said Kevin Kennedy, Chief Executive Officer of JDS Uniphase. “We remain focused on profitability improvements, and believe we have initiated the necessary changes to enable JDS Uniphase to continue to compete and to be profitable in the global marketplace.”
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP net loss excludes restructuring and other realignment charges, the cumulative effect of an accounting change, amortization of purchased intangibles, reductions of long-lived assets,

acquisition-based stock compensation charges and other acquisition related charges, gains and losses on sale of subsidiaries’ assets, and gains and losses on investments. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial results to the GAAP results as provided below.
The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures to supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the users’ overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by identifying certain expenses, gains and losses that, when excluded from the GAAP results, may provide additional understanding of the Company’s core operating results or business performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to supercede or replace the Company’s GAAP results. A detailed reconciliation of the GAAP results to the non-GAAP results is provided in the “Non-GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations” schedules below.
Financial Overview – First Quarter Ended September 30, 2004
• Communications Products Group net revenue grew 24% sequentially to $106.1 million, and represented 55% of net revenue. Commercial and Consumer Products Group net revenue was flat sequentially, and represented $88.4 million, or 45% of net revenue.
• On a geographic basis, net revenue from North American customers represented 65% of net revenue. European and Asia-Pacific customers represented 18% and 17% of net revenue, respectively.
• GAAP gross margin was 22% of net revenue, and non-GAAP gross margin was 23% of net revenue.
• GAAP operating expenses were $76.2 million, representing 39% of net revenue. Non-GAAP operating expenses were $60.5 million, or 31% of net revenue.
• The Company held $1,463.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at the end of the first quarter, of which approximately $1,401.8 million was cash, money market and other highly liquid fixed income securities. The Company used approximately $59.8 million in cash from operations, including $9.2 million used for
restructuring and realignment payments. Acquisition related activity consumed approximately $11.9 million in net cash.
Business Outlook
Management provided the following financial guidance. For the quarter ending December 31, 2004, the company expects:
• Coming off a strong revenue performance in fiscal Q1, we expect revenue in the range of down 8% to flat;
• As a percentage of revenue, non-GAAP gross margin is expected to be in the low twenties.
• Non-GAAP EBITDA to be in the range of a loss of $10 million to a loss of $16 million, depending on revenue levels and variations in costs and product mix; and
• Non-GAAP loss per share is expected to be one cent.
This outlook excludes items which, depending upon actual results, may be required by GAAP, such as restructuring and related costs, acquisition related costs, amortization of purchased intangibles, reductions of goodwill and other long-lived assets, and gains and losses on investments, the likelihood and amount of which are uncertain at this time.
Conference Call
The Company will discuss these results and other related matters at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time on October 27, 2004 in a live webcast, which will also be archived for replay on the Company’s website at www.jdsu.com/investors. This press release is being furnished as a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and will be available at www.sec.gov shortly after it becomes public.
