A10 Networks (NYSE: ATEN) reported Q2 EPS of $0.09, $0.01 better than the analyst estimate of $0.08. Revenue for the quarter came in at $52.5 million versus the consensus estimate of $52.1 million.

“A10 continues to make progress on our business model transformation, resulting in improved earnings power, amidst an uncertain environment,” said Dhrupad Trivedi, President and Chief Executive Officer of A10 Networks. “To date, we have successfully navigated the challenges related to the pandemic and associated economic disruptions. Demand remains strong, though sales cycles, particularly in Asia, have been elongated. Increasingly, our global footprint and customer mix serve as important and durable competitive advantages. We were able to offset revenue declines from Japan and Asia Pacific regions with improvements from North America and EMEA. We maintain a strong market position with service providers and their investment cycles which can last multiple years and result in variable demand levels within a 90-day period.”

“We continue to focus on execution and efficiency to maximize profitability while investing in innovation for our customers,” continued Mr. Trivedi. “On a non-GAAP basis, during the quarter we achieved an $8.2 million improvement in operating income, a $7.4 million improvement in net income, and an $8.4 million improvement in Adjusted EBITDA, on a $3.3 million improvement in revenue compared with the same period last year. We have already achieved our stated goal of eliminating $10 million in operating expenses, with a reduction of over $11 million in the first six months of 2020 compared with the same period in 2019, and we now expect to reduce opex by at least $14 million for the full year. This enhanced operating leverage and global customer mix coupled with our strong balance sheet, with $143.4 million in cash and marketable securities and no debt, positions us well to weather these storms while investing in innovation for our customers. I am truly excited about our growth opportunities with a refreshed portfolio and go-to-market model, including the recently announced partnership with Dell.”
