Ciena (NYSE:CIEN) took in $1.67 billion in its latest fiscal quarter, 37% more than a year earlier. Over the past five years, though, its sales grew only about 6.2% a year, and its earnings per share shrank about 18% a year.
Ciena secures a Space Norway contract to modernize Arctic subsea cables and deploy advanced networking technology, boosting capacity and connectivity.
Ciena appointed Monika Fahlbusch as Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer on 12 October 2026, tasking her with leading the global People & Culture organization and using AI, data, and automation to evolve the group’s people strategy.
Ciena (CIEN) stock returned 101.5% from October 16, 2025 to October 19, 2026, against 17.4% for the S&P 500. The run turned out to be about cloud providers and data centers ordering more of Ciena's optical networking gear than the company could ship.
