The company reported Q1 revenue of $137.188 million, beating the consensus estimate of approximately $135 million and representing a 43% year-over-year increase. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.22, surpassing the $0.18 estimate. Management highlighted that Q1 marked an inflection point, particularly in its optical data center business, where infrastructure revenue rose 136% year-over-year due to strong demand from hyperscale customers.
