Fool.com: Tellabs Takes a Tumble (News) January 25, 2000 (532 words)
Shares of data, voice, and video transmission systems maker Tellabs (Nasdaq: TLAB) were pulled sharply down today after the company poured salt on an upbeat quarterly earnings report with some downbeat news about the upcoming quarter.
Tellabs today turned in full-year 1999 sales of $2.32 billion, up about 36% from last year's $1.70 million mark; the company said the result means it beat an internal goal to generate $2 billion in annual sales a year early.
Titan-related sales were a huge chunk of Tellabs' sales for the year -- $1.2 billion in total -- and the company plans to continue upgrading and adding to the line in a "stretch" play to reach $6 billion in annual sales by 2003.
