Oakland, CA — July 20, 2011 — Zhone Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZHNE), a global pioneer in FTTx network access solutions, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.

Revenue for the second quarter of 2011 was $31.3 million compared to $29.6 million for the first quarter of 2011 and $33.3 million for the second quarter of 2010. Net loss for the second quarter of 2011, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), was $1.9 million or $0.06 per share compared with a net loss of $2.4 million or $0.08 per share for the first quarter of 2011 and a net loss of $2.0 million or $0.07 per share for the second quarter of 2010. Adjusted earnings before stock-based compensation, interest, taxes, and depreciation (“adjusted EBITDA”) was an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2011, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2011 and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2010.

“Quarterly revenue grew by 6% sequentially keeping us on track to achieve our financial goals for the year,” stated Mory Ejabat, Zhone’s chief executive officer. “We are encouraged by the increasing demand for our innovative products that provide carriers with an easy and cost effective migration to next generation technologies.”

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 2011 was $19.3 million compared to $21.2 million at December 31, 2010. Cash net of debt obligations at June 30, 2011 was $9.3 million compared to $11.2 million at December 31, 2010.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Zhone’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, Zhone uses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure Zhone believes is appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of Zhone’s past financial performance and prospects for the future. These adjustments to GAAP results are made with the intent of providing greater transparency to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. These non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators that management uses as a basis for making operating decisions because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance, including the Company’s ability to provide cash flows to invest in research and development, and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management’s internal comparisons to the Company’s historical operating results and comparisons to competitors’ operating results. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between net loss calculated on a GAAP basis and adjusted EBITDA on a non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
