Symmetricom (SYMM) Warns for Q2

December 18, 2012 4:23 PM EST
Symmetricom, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM) lowers Q2 guidance.

Second quarter revenue is expected to range from $46.0 to $49.0 million, a revision from previous revenue guidance of $55.0 to $62.0 million and the consensus of $58 million. The company expects a GAAP loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 in the range of $(0.11) to $(0.05) per share and non-GAAP loss in the range of $(0.05) to $(0.01) per share versus the consensus of a $0.07 profit.

his decrease is due primarily to lower than expected revenue in two areas: U.S. government and domestic communications service provider spending. Purchases of Symmetricom products by U.S. government customers declined further in the second quarter. In addition, wireline-related purchases by communications service providers have been soft, most notably in the United States. Partially offsetting this weakness in the quarter is continued strength in shipments of the company's QuantumTM SA.45s Chip Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC), a key growth initiative for the company.
