ADVA Optical Networking SE: Preliminary revenue and profitability development in the second quarter of 2020 exceeds previous year and analyst estimates
16.7.2020 21:45:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
In preparation of the six-month report 2020 of ADVA Optical Networking SE (FSE:ADV), the preliminary financial key figures of the second quarter significantly overperform both the previous year’s figures and the available financial analyst estimates.
For this reason, ADVA Optical Networking SE publishes the following preliminary financial results for the second quarter of 2020:
- Preliminary revenues were EUR 145.0 million and increased by 8.9% compared to the year-ago quarter (Q2 2019: EUR 133.2 million)
- The preliminary pro forma operating income was EUR 10.1 million and increased significantly by 133.0% compared to Q2 2019 (Q2 2019: EUR 4.3 million)
- The preliminary pro forma operating income margin was 7.0% and thus 3.7 percentage points up from the year-ago quarter (Q2 2019: 3.3%)
- Preliminary net debt was EUR 44.9 million and improved substantially by 34.0% (Q2 2019: 68.1 million)
Revenues and profitability increased substantially, both sequentially and year over year. In addition, cash and cash equivalents significantly increased and net debt improved, compared to the previous quarter of 2020 and the year-ago quarter. This is mainly due to the cost improvement measures introduced in 2019.
Despite the very positive second quarter, there is still high uncertainty about the further course of the Covid-19 crisis and its impact on ADVA’s business. For this reason, the management board will not issue new guidance for the entire year 2020.
The final business figures for the first half of 2020 will be published on July 23, 2020, as planned.

Carta Rearchitects Private Capital Operations with Plugins for Claude29.7.2026 17:01:00 EEST | Press release
Carta, the connected platform and AI-native ecosystem for private capital, today announces broad availability of its suite of Plugins for Claude following the initial launch in April 2026. With more than 1,500 companies and firms already using the plugins, Carta is changing the way private capital teams — from founders to CFOs — fundamentally operate, bringing fund administration, cap table management, and dealflow analytics directly into the spreadsheets, presentations, and workflows they already use every day. "For the last decade, private capital operation teams have been held back by a hidden tax: the constant, manual handoff of data between disconnected systems," said Henry Ward, Carta CEO. "Carta is eliminating that broken loop entirely by embedding intelligence directly into the tools teams already use. We are not waiting for an AI-native future for private capital — it is running on Carta today." Carta didn't just give Claude a pipe to its data. Carta built its private-capital
