HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ADTRAN, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADTN) (“ADTRAN” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2020. For the quarter, revenue was $114.5 million compared to $143.8 million for the first quarter of 2019. Earnings for the first quarter of 2020 were a net loss of $10.0 million compared to net income of $0.8 million for the first quarter of 2019. Earnings per share was a loss of $0.21 per share compared to earnings of $0.02 per share, assuming dilution, for the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP earnings were a net loss of $2.2 million compared to a non-GAAP net income of $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP earnings per share was a loss of $0.05 per share compared to a non-GAAP earnings of $0.10 per share, assuming dilution, for the first quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share exclude stock-based compensation expense, acquisition related expenses, amortizations and adjustments, restructuring expenses, amortization of pension actuarial losses, valuation allowance related to our deferred tax assets, asset impairments and deferred compensation related adjustments. The reconciliations between GAAP net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share to non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share are set forth in the table provided below.
ADTRAN Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tom Stanton stated, “While COVID-19 has certainly impacted the way we work and live, it has also underscored the value and integral role the telecommunications industry plays in keeping everyone connected. For ADTRAN, the first quarter came in largely as anticipated. We experienced solid demand, and even in a challenging supply chain environment we had solid growth in our domestic regional and emerging service provider market segments. In addition, several Tier 1 operators have recently selected ADTRAN as their software-defined access platform and solution integration partner for their next generation fiber networks.”
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the first quarter of 2020. The quarterly cash dividend is $0.09 per common share, to be paid to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 21, 2020. The payment date will be June 4, 2020.

This press release contains forward-looking statements, generally identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will,” “may,” “could” and similar expressions, which forward-looking statements reflect management’s best judgment based on factors currently known. However, these statements involve risks and uncertainties, including the continued spread and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic, including the speed, depth, geographic reach and duration of the spread, which could lead to a decrease in demand for the Company’s products and services, and which has disrupted, and could lead to further disruptions in, the Company’s supply chain, adversely impacting the operations and financial condition of our customers and the Company; actions to be taken by the Company in response to the pandemic; the legal, regulatory and administrative developments that occur at the federal, state and local levels and in foreign jurisdictions in response to the pandemic; potential disruptions, breaches, or other incidents affecting the proper operation, availability, or security of the Company’s or its partners’ information systems; declines in revenues due to declining customer demand and deteriorating macroeconomic conditions; potential increased expenses related to labor or other expenditures; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity, as well as risks associated with disruptions in the financial markets and the business of financial institutions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic which could impact us from a financial perspective, and the exacerbation of other risks detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements included in this press release.
To provide additional transparency, we have disclosed in the table below non-GAAP operating income (loss), which has been reconciled to operating loss, and non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share - basic and diluted, which have been reconciled to net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share - basic and diluted, in each case as reported based on Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items which management believes are not reflective of the ongoing operating performance of the business. We believe this information is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of our ongoing operations. Additionally, these measures are used by management in our ongoing planning and annual budgeting processes. The presentation of non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP income (loss) per share - basic and diluted, when combined with the U.S. GAAP presentation of operating loss, net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share - basic and diluted, is beneficial to the overall understanding of ongoing operating performance of the Company.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with, or an alternative for, U.S. GAAP and therefore should not be considered in isolation or as a substitution for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Additionally, our calculation of non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share - basic and diluted may not be comparable to similar measures calculated by other companies.
