JDSU announced Wednesday its 2015 first-quarter revenue was down from the previous quarter but still exceeded guidance.
“Enterprise market performance included growth in datacom and service enablement, which generated an operating profit ahead of schedule,” CEO Tom Waechter said in a statement, adding plans to split the company into two remain on track for the 2015 third quarter.
One of the companies will focus on optical components and commercial lasers and the other will be a network and service enablement company.
