SUNNYVALE, CA - April 19, 2006 -- Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR) today reported its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006.
Net revenues for the first quarter of 2006 were $566.7 million, compared with $449.1 million for the first quarter of 2005, an increase of 26 percent.
With the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (FAS 123R) as of January 1, 2006, Juniper is reporting stock-based compensation expense in its generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) results for the first time. Net income on a GAAP basis for the first quarter of 2006 was $75.8 million or $0.13 per share, compared with a GAAP net income of $75.4 million or $0.13 per share for the first quarter of 2005. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2006 was $113.4 million or $0.19 per share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $91.9 million or $0.16 per share for the first quarter of 2005. The reconciliation between non-GAAP and GAAP net income is provided in a table immediately following the Non-GAAP Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
For comparative purposes, net income excluding stock-based compensation for the first quarter of 2006 was $91.9 million or $0.15 per share, compared with a net income excluding stock-based compensation of $77.8 million or $0.13 per share for the first quarter of 2005. The reconciliation between net income excluding stock-based compensation and GAAP net income is provided in a table below the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Net cash flows from operations for the first quarter of 2006 were $83.0 million, compared to cash provided by operations of $134.4 million for the first quarter of 2005. For comparative purposes, non-GAAP cash flows from operations in the first quarter of 2006 were $139.1 million including the tax benefit from the exercise of employee stock options which were previously included in the operating cash flows. As a result of the adoption of FAS 123R, tax benefits from the exercise of employee stock options totaling $56.1 million are included in cash flows from financing activities. The reconciliation between non-GAAP and GAAP cash flows from operations is provided in a table immediately following the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Capital expenditures and depreciation during the first quarter of 2006 were $18.2 million and $17.2 million, respectively.
"The first quarter reflected the continuing acceptance of Juniper's product portfolio with both our enterprise and service provider customers," commented Scott Kriens, chairman and CEO, Juniper Networks. "We will intensify our focus on execution in order to capitalize in an environment where our capabilities and the market requirements are aligning more clearly than ever before."
Juniper's ongoing focus on serving the needs of its global service provider and enterprise customers was reflected in a number of key accomplishments this quarter.
- Juniper continued to support its service provider customers as they transition to Next Generation Network infrastructures. China Telecom Shanghai and Cox Communications, for example, chose the T-series to provide the performance, reliability and scale to support the build-outs of their core IP infrastructures, while BT is deploying Juniper at both the core and the edge of its 21st Century Network. IPTV continued to drive demand for Juniper products. Working side by side with its partner, Siemens, Juniper garnered wins at T-Com and Fastweb in Europe. In addition, Juniper remains the sole sourced provider for the world's largest IPTV network, PCCW. Juniper was also chosen by Germany's leading TV station, RTL, to ensure quality of service and scalability for live broadcast content, via the M-series, multi-service edge router.
- On the enterprise side Juniper saw solid demand across the portfolio. Sharper Image, for example is deploying Juniper's Firewall/IPSec VPNs, SSL VPNs and WX appliances as it redesigns its network to increase performance, security and meet government mandates. Other key wins include Sara Lee, Canada's Globe and Mail, Daimler Chrysler, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), which is securing its global network with Juniper's IDP solutions and the US Air force.
- Juniper's innovation engine continued this quarter with the delivery of the Secure Services Gateway (SSG), a new line of high performance firewall/VPN platforms with integrated local-area and wide-area interfaces. Strong customer traction has validated Juniper's strategy of delivering integrated branch solutions with no compromise between security and performance.

In addition, since we have historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting For its internal budgeting and planning, Juniper Networks' management uses financial statements that do not include employee stock-based compensation; amortization of purchased intangible assets; in-process research and development; restructuring, impairment and related charges; integration costs; patent cross licensing expense; gain (loss) on investments; and the income tax effects of the foregoing, as applicable.
