Ribbon Communications (RBBN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Ribbon Communications Inc. has shown a promising financial trajectory, with its IP Optical segment recording a revenue increase of 11% year-over-year in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. The company is expected to continue benefiting from its strategic focus on winning new Metro customers and projects, particularly within North American and EMEA service providers, which may further enhance its revenue generation capabilities. Additionally, Ribbon's management is increasingly focused on maximizing earnings per share, alongside EBITDA, by optimizing its debt and capital structure, thus indicating a committed effort toward sustainable financial growth.
Bears say
Ribbon Communications Inc. reported a decline in its Cloud & Edge revenue, which totaled $124 million, reflecting a 9% quarter-over-quarter and 3% year-over-year decrease, primarily driven by a significant 60% drop in U.S. sales. The company further revised its revenue and EPS projections for 2026 downwards, from $928 million and $0.34 to $912 million and $0.30, highlighting concerns over margin compression due to a potential shift from higher-margin products to lower-margin IP and Optical offerings. Additionally, the company missed consensus expectations in 3Q25, with revenues of $215 million and EPS of $0.04 falling short by $5 million and $0.02, respectively, indicating underlying challenges that could hinder future EPS growth.
