Andrew lowers revenue estimates, cites carrier consolidation

ORLAND PARK, Ill.-Andrew Corp. has lowered its fourth-quarter guidance, attributing the fall in revenue and margins to carrier consolidation and delays in commitments to next-generation technology.

The company revised its projected fourth-quarter revenue to between $450 million and $470 million as against an earlier estimate of between $460 million and $490 million. In earnings per share, the revision amounted to a loss of 4 cents to 8 cents compared with an earlier anticipated loss of 4 cents and 7 cents.

“Despite these current issues, the long-term market fundamentals of the wireless infrastructure industry continue to be positive,” said Ralph Faison, president and chief executive officer of the company. “
