No I'm all out for now. On to the next.
Be careful if you got back in. Its pretty extended. looking for a good drop
I really thought it was gonna hit the floor. It looks to have some legs. Seeking Alpha was pumping it so that might have something to do with it.
No problem. It appears that im going to have to stay down in my position another day or two. ZHNE found a lot of strength today
Hey thanks a lot. Thanks for looking out.
I was stopped out at 2.91. May look for a nice bounce to re-enter. I wish I could short but I don't have the funds for a margin account. You're right though. If a trader can play both ways it's very beneficial.
Good work. You were right on.
Lets let the market open and I will post another chart that shows todays candle on it. Right now im down about $3,500 on this trade. I was up $750 on the first day I shorted it but I see a lot more downside potential. I cant always hit the exact level a stock or future will fall but I get close enough. Although I do take a lot of short positions I would say that 90% are in the futures markets. They are extremely volatile and easy to read. A lot of people think its wrong to short stocks and so did I when I first started. But I learned one thing about todays markets. Its no longer a mom & pop investing thing. Those days are pretty much gone. Todays markets are owned by day traders and if someone wants to really survive they need to learn to play both ends. When a stock is way over extended its going to sell off due to profits and shorting. For people that like to scalp that's a good thing.
Just so you know, I'm not bashing you, but I am aware (based on your post history) that you take many short positions. If someone is bearish, it would be in his/her best interest to rally the short side. The same goes for a bull; rally the longs.
As I am not a chart reader, per se, I'm curious as to how you think ZHNE performed in comparison with your chart. I was also hoping you could post another one tomorrow if you can find the time.
I'm just on this board to learn and for now, you seem to be the only one with any relevant information.
I think it would be fare to give you my position:
I've scalped this twice and am now in @ 2.83. I expect a nice pre-market tomorrow morning and a nice run, with steady volume thorough out the day. I guess we'll have a good idea of how it will play out based on the pre-market.
Good luck and thanks for your charts.
Look at the chart I posted. This stock is way over extended on earnings and will pull back. It cant sustain itself where its at. Im not bashing it. Just calling it like it is
Pull back when? I'm confused.
02:46 PM EDT, 07/24/2013 (MidnightTrader) -- Shares of Zhone Technologies Inc. (ZHNE), which makes communications networks equipment, have soared more than 30% to $2.93 in afternoon trade, and earlier established a new 52-week high of $2.97.
An article in Seeking Alpha said that despite ZHNE's recent climb in stock price, there's still plenty of room to grow. "It is very rare to find a company whose stock has recently doubled that remains undervalued and simultaneously offers investors significant upside potential in both the near and long-term. Although rare, this seems to be the case with Zhone Technologies (ZHNE)," said the article. The author is long on the stock.

A long time holder. I am disgusted with the Board. They keep getting shares nor nothing .0

For shame, what kind of message are they trying to send ?.
I was hoping the Obama administration would give this company $$$ ( Clean Air Act ).
But so far as I can see, we have gotten the shaft. I will hold, for I originally bought above

First FTTH Enabled Residential Community in Egypt Empowered by Zhone Technologies and Palm Hills Developments
Industry-leading MXK(TM) solution providing state-of-the-art entertainment services to more than 7,000 residences in new real estate development
Oakland, CA - February 22, 2012 - Zhone Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZHNE - News), a global leader in FTTx network access solutions, today announced a new MXK(TM) deployment with Palm Hills Developments (PHD), a leading real estate company in the Egyptian market, to provide the first fiber-to-the-home community in the region. The new real estate complex, consisting of more than 1,000 residences, will provide access to state-of-the-art entertainment services such as high-speed broadband connectivity to every home within the development.
As of October 2011, PHD developed the first residential real estate complex in Egypt to provide IPTV services over GPON, enabled by Zhone`s MXK solution. The Zhone MXK Optical Line Termination (OLT) high-density platform was used as the main FTTx concentrator with GPON technology for the initial deployment phase. The flexibility to add on other access solutions that may be required as the deployment process expands was an essential value to PHD.
"When designing our brand-new luxury real estate complex with the latest entertainment services, we were determined to provide residents with the newest applications and superior experience, requiring best-in-class FTTH technology," stated Hisham Salah, vice president of technology for Palm Hills Developments. "We chose Zhone GPON technology as the right offering for the deployment because their solutions are flexible, reliable and cost-effective. The products are stable, and easy to operate and deploy."
With end-to-end management and end-user services interfaces based on Zhone solutions, PHD benefits from the flexibility of simple one-time configuration, a common service portfolio and unique end-user-specific service identification. Zhone carrier class access solutions, including its zNID Optical Network Terminal ONT, are integrated with PHD back office servers and network components to enable triple-play services.
"Zhone is proud to coordinate the first Egyptian GPON deployment for IPTV; our offerings seamlessly address the growing traffic and demand for high quality of service from its customers," stated Brian Caskey, chief marketing officer for Zhone. "Our extensive experience managing the complexity of multi-service access is demonstrated by our comprehensive portfolio of scalable FTTx solutions."
To-date, Zhone has deployed more than 3,000 of its fully redundant, carrier-grade all-IP MXK platforms with more than 150 service providers globally, signaling an FTTx customer growth rate of more than 450 percent in the 3-year period from January 2009 to January 2012. Total subscriber capacity supported by these deployments now exceeds 20 million. Featuring industry-leading density, scalability and switching capacity, the MXK is the industry`s first terabit access concentrator and provides non-blocking capacity of up to 3,600 100 Mbps GPON subscribers or 360 1G Active Ethernet subscribers. Zhone has also driven more than 8500 percent ONT growth and more than 9,800 percent OLT growth since solution inception.

I sure hope this turns back up today! That drop yesterday was not fun to watch, but fears about a market pullback had many investors looking to cash in their recent gains and ZHNE definitely fell into that category.
Looking at the bigger picture, ZHNE looks to be a good long term hold imo.
Cheers!
Ok headed back in the right direction and I think we could see plenty of green ahead! Go ZHNE!
Looks like a lil profit taking on a red day in the market despite the news today for ZHNE. Low volume today too. Hopefully the market will bounce back and take ZHNE right back up. I yjink 2012 looks to a great year for ZHNE and I am in this for the long haul. That is why I took moderator role.
I will be working on getting the ibox updated over the next few weeks.
Cheers!

Zhone Technologies Surpasses Strategic Milestone of 3,000 MXK™ Platform Deployments Worldwide
Zhone Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZHNE), a global leader in FTTx network access solutions, today announced the deployment of more than 3,000 MXK™ multi-service access node (MSAN) platforms worldwide. Zhone embraces the growing demand for Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON), Active Ethernet (AE) and very high bit rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL2) connectivity and continues to equip its customers with products and solutions aimed at addressing their bandwidth concerns and shifting consumer expectations.
“According to our market assessment, Zhone is a steady top five FTTH network provider in all the markets they address,” stated Teresa Mastrangelo, principal analyst at Broadbandtrends. “With recent updates to the Zhone FiberHome and Zhone FiberCell portfolios and the introduction of Zhone EZ FiberService, the company is poised for continued leadership in the global FTTx market with complementary presence in the mobile backhaul market. Zhone’s continued focus on product development has enabled it to grow its presence both domestically and abroad. We expect demand for FTTx services to grow at a 14-16% CAGR over the next 3-5 years with continued strong growth expected in the U.S., Latin America and European markets where Zhone continues to focus its efforts.”
According to USA Today, consumer demand for wireless broadband is anticipated to increase sixty-fold by 2015, and Zhone’s subsequent, ongoing expansion of its customer base across the Middle East, Central and Latin America (CALA), Europe and North America is a result of the powerful combination of best-in-class solution design, continued innovation, technology leadership and global customer service capabilities. Zhone’s leadership status in the global fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) market demonstrates the value that service providers place on the company’s ability to consistently deliver high-quality, high-performance single line multi-service (SLMS)-based access solutions.
“The four-pronged offering of Zhone’s MXK, zNID™ GPON and AE Optical Network Terminals (ONTs), Zhone Management System (ZMS™) and Zhone EZ Touch Provisioning™ system provides the customizable solutions that our customers expect, designed to expand network reach and service offerings,” explained Brian Caskey, chief marketing officer at Zhone. “Each of our solution portfolios – the IP Zhone?, Zhone FiberHome™ and Zhone FiberCell™ – endow our customers to enhance the value of their own copper, fiber and Ethernet investments for the long-term and craft a cost-effective, scalable and future-proof network for their individual subscribers. The recent deployment with Mobily and continued expansion with Etisalat – along with other recent customer announcements – are further proof of the MXK’s ability to address leading operator requirements for high performance, scalability, flexibility and overall system reliability.”
Zhone FiberHome portfolio of products and solutions, including the MXK platform, fulfills the network requirements of both international and domestic customers’ broadband expansion efforts for residential and business users and the growing opportunity in the mobile backhaul market provide ongoing opportunities for Zhone to further deploy the MXK platform globally.
To-date, Zhone has deployed more than 3,000 of its fully redundant, carrier-grade all-IP MXK platforms with more than 150 service providers globally, signaling an FTTx customer growth rate of more than 450 percent in the 3-year period from January 2009 to January 2012. Total subscriber capacity supported by these deployments now exceeds 20 million. Featuring industry-leading density, scalability and switching capacity, the MXK is the industry's first terabit access concentrator and provides non-blocking capacity of up to 3,600 100 Mbps GPON subscribers or 360 1G Active Ethernet subscribers.

Zhone Technologies Achieves Profitability Ahead Of A Pivotal 2012
January 26, 2012 (Seeking Alpha)
http://seekingalpha.com/article/322389-zhone-technologies-achieves-profitability-ahead-of-a-pivotal-2012?source=kizur[/tag]
Wednesday evening, Zhone Technologies (ZHNE) announced Q4 revenue of $33.4M, representing solid year over year and sequential growth versus $30.2M in the third quarter of 2011 and $31.0M in the fourth quarter of 2010. More importantly, the company delivered against its promise to generate positive EBITDA in the quarter.
CEO Mory Ejabat was visibly ebullient, "We're pleased to announce strong revenue growth across all regions during the quarter. Fourth-quarter revenue grew 11% sequentially over third-quarter revenue and 8% year over year as compared with last year's fourth-quarter revenue. With this strong top-line growth, we also achieved our other major financial objective for the quarter and generated positive adjusted EBITDA."
On the earnings call he stated that he expects the momentum to continue into 2012. CFO Kirk Misaka concurred, stating that investors can expect normal seasonality, but continued growth for 2012. He went on to provide guidance, which calls for positive EBITDA for the full year of 2012.
Gross margins were among the highlights, coming in at high end of guidance range (36%). The company expects that to moderate seasonally to 34%-36% in Q1 before improve for the reminder of the year. Its emphasis on U.S. manufacturing was cited as a catalyst for the improved results and profit margins.
On the flip side, ZHNE impaired some long-lived assets, based on the company's decreased market capitalization. It should be noted that the last time this happened was in the middle of 2008. The shares then traded at $1.65 and were pulled down further by the financial crisis. By the beginning of December however, the shares decoupled from the broader market and rose by 200% from that point. Even as the market made its final lows in March of 2009, ZHNE continued upward. At its peak, the shares hit $8.20, nearly 1,800% above its late-2008 lows.
ZHNE vs. NASDAQ
A repeat of that performance is unlikely, but it's not unreasonable to continue thinking that the shares are poised to triple from here.
As we enter 2012, ZHNE is valued at just over $30M. However, its book value is nearly $40M and the company has guided to EBIDTA profitability for 2012. Both factors will cushion investors from significant losses. Meanwhile, its valuation makes the company a prime candidate for share-price appreciation and/or acquisition. To go along with its $40M balance sheet, ZHNE generates over $120M in revenue and invests over $20M into R&D annually. When combined with EBITDA profitability, both of these measures beg for a minimum valuation of $2 (0.5x revenue and 3x R&D).
All the company needs is a catalyst to spark investor interest. Such catalysts should be in ample supply this year. 2011 was marred by a fiber cable shortage, which put numerous projects on hold. The year was also characterized by delays in U.S. Government Broadband Stimulus funding, which also delayed broadband deployments.
Going into 2012, a simple Google search shows that both issues are now reversing. As such, a significant headwind should become a major tailwind. Management confirmed this view on its earning conference call.
In addition to the above, the FCC's Universal Service Fund (USF) promises to be the greatest catalyst of all. The USF has traditionally focused on making sure all Americans have access to telephone service. However, its mandate was recently shifted to enabling Broadband access.
This mandate was unanimously approved by the FCC on October 30, and will funnel $4.5 billion toward the development of rural Broadband access annually through 2017 ($22.5 billion total). This compares with the Broadband Stimulus program, which totals a "mere" $7 billion. The program is expected to kick off in 2012 and will run in parallel to the U.S. Broadband Stimulus program.
With EBITDA profitability attained, major write-offs out of the way, fiber shortages alleviated, and stimulus funding set to flow, it appears that ZHNE is finally cleared for takeoff.
Disclosure: I am long ZHNE.
I sure hope the momentum keeps going until we reach that $2.50 level!
Previous plays - everytime ZHNE reaches this level it goes to about 2.50 in a few days.
very nice move from $.80's or $.90's
January has been quite a month
Thanks and I agree, but we have no moderators or asst. mods to sticky it. However it looks like a great future for ZHNE in 2012.
Thank you crookedneck, this needs to be stickied.

About Zhone
Zhone Headquarters
The Service Provider Challenge
Perhaps for the first time, service providers are facing real competition to their primary businesses. Competitors are encroaching with integrated voice, data and video services that are price competitive. While the addition of video services will help complete their existing service offerings, carriers must also defend their voice and data businesses while simultaneously retooling to rapidly evolving packet-based services. Service Providers need a manageable, scalable, more cost-effective delivery platform that extends their existing networks and allows them to defend their subscriber base and sustain long-term growth.
The Zhone Solution
Zhone's Single Line Multi-Service architecture (SLMS™), allows carriers to concurrently deliver voice, new premium data and video services over copper or fiber access lines. Zhone provides carriers with an elegant migration from legacy circuit-based technology to packet based networks while substantially reducing operating costs. With deployments at over 600 service providers and network operators including among some of the world's largest networks, Zhone has enabled service providers to reinvent their businesses.
The Company
Zhone Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZHNE) was founded by senior executives of Ascend Communications and began operations in September 1999. With corporate headquarters in Oakland, California, the company operates development centers across North America and has sales and service facilities and customers spanning the globe.
Zhone's SLMS architecture delivers key benefits to service providers:
Optimized Broadband Access
Zhone provides the most comprehensive array of scalable platforms and cabinets supporting 8 to 2880 ports per enclosure. Local or line-powered options extend reach to 38,000 ft. / 11.6 km while optional watertight outside plant (OSP) enclosures allow pole, pedestal or underground deployment. This deployment flexibility minimizes loop lengths with precise port densities allowing carriers to provide the ubiquitous broadband needed for triple play services.
Optimized Migration to Packet
Software selectable line and trunk interfaces provide elegant circuit to packet migration. Flexible uplinks including GR-303 / V5.2 / OC-12 / Gig-E allow carriers to deploy and maintain existing TDM services while simultaneously retooling for packet voice using SIP, MGCP or H.248 signaling. Zhone's Flexband™ technology supports broadband and narrowband service without cutovers or the need to dispatch OSP technicians.
Optimized Triple Play
Zhone's innovative end-to-end solution alleviates incompatibilities and smoothes upgrades. The Zhone Residential Gateway eliminates in-house rewiring, eliminates Set-Top Boxes, eliminates scheduled service calls, eliminates in-home liabilities and enhances customer experience.
Optimized Transport
Zhone integrates packet access + Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) transport to handle both TDM and packet traffic using shared virtual rings to provide efficient and cost-effective service delivery. Multicast and broadcast traffic is delivered much more efficiently with RPR offering carriers maximum bandwidth efficiency and QoS guarantees. Zhone's RPR adheres to the IEEE 802.17 standard offering sub-50ms protection switching and simplified provisioning.
Commitment to Quality
As part of its commitment to quality Zhone has established two interoperability test laboratories, representing a significant investment in capital, facilities, and staff. These two labs include 5 local exchange switches with a capacity to simulate traffic equivalent to a city of over 400,000 people. Additional equipment allows testing of high-speed data and video services as well as interoperability with a complete range of 3rd party systems.
Zhone is ISO 9001:2000 certified in the design, manufacture, and service of electronic telecommunications equipment.

SolutionsBroadband Access Solutions Delivering Residential and Business Voice, Video and Data Services over Copper or FiberFTTxSocial networking and new media have created unprecedented expectations for personalization and interactivity in entertainment and business communications. As applications bloom to address the market opportunities, they are putting pressure on limited bandwidth and driving user demand for higher bandwidth access technologies. Fiber solutions offer carriers a means to deliver orders of magnitude more bandwidth while reducing their Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Zhone equipment provides carriers FTTx solution options for strategically introducing Active Ethernet and GPON while ensuring a migration path to emerging 10G access technologies. Multi-ServiceMulti-Service packages are critical to carriers' success today. Service differentiation and time-to-market advantages accrue to carriers who can present their customers with new solutions that combine familiar voice, data and video services for compelling applications in a competitive market. Multi-service implementations require an architecture that anticipates multiple data types and protocols while ensuring interoperable standards-based network elements. Zhone's pioneering work in multi-service solutions with its SLMS architecture has provided its customers with tremendous CAPEX and OPEX savings along with time-to-market advantage with new, revenue-generating applications and services. StimulusAmerica's 2020 Broadband Vision is aimed at improving US global competitiveness, generating new jobs, harnessing innovation and, above all, strengthening America's position as a global leader in the 21st century. At the heart of the 2020 Broadband Vision is the goal of providing 100 million households with affordable 100 Mbps service and ensuring affordable 1 Gbps service in every American community by the year 2020. As the leading US manufacturer of high performance access equipment, Zhone solutions deliver compelling 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps solutions today. Zhone stands ready to work with US carriers to leverage stimulus funding to bring the promise of the 2020 Broadband Vision to their local communities. Mobile BackhaulZhone FiberCell, an extension of Zhone's market-leading FTTx solutions, is a carrier-class mobile backhaul solution designed to address increased bandwidth needs in today's data-centric service environment. Service Providers currently utilize T1/E1 lines for backhaul which results in extremely high monthly re-occurring T1/E1 fees and service charges for mobile backhaul besides not being adequate for the bandwidth requirements. With Zhone FiberCell solution, Zhone customers are benefited with the option of copper and/or fiber based Mobile Backhaul options providing cost-effective backhaul bandwidth upgrades. EZ Touch ProvisioningZHONE EZ TOUCH PROVISIONING - an extension of the Zhone Management System (ZMS) - is the next-generation carrier-class network management and provisioning solution for SHDSL EFM CPEs (ETHX) and non-OMCI GPON and Active Ethernet zNID ONTs. As networks are getting more complex and expensive to manage, service providers are looking at ways and means to reduce their recurring operational expenditure (OPEX) by minimizing truck rolls and manual subscriber-specific features and, effectively, automating the service provisioning functionality. |
