Revenue for the first quarter of 2008 was $43.0 million compared with $46.6
million for the fourth quarter of 2007 and $43.1 million for the first quarter
of 2007. Net loss for the first quarter of 2008, calculated in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), was $0.9 million
or $0.01 per share compared with a net loss of $1.2 million or $0.01 per share
for the fourth quarter of 2007, and a net loss of $4.8 million or $0.03 per
share for the first quarter of 2007. Pro forma earnings before stock-based

quarter of 2007, and pro forma EBITDA loss of $2.9 million for the first

"Strong revenue growth from the Middle East and Central and Latin America
regions helped us exceed prior financial guidance. Revenue grew 9% over the
prior quarter excluding revenue associated with divested product lines,"
said Mory Ejabat, chairman and chief executive officer of Zhone Technologies,
Inc. "The divestiture of legacy products has helped streamline our focus
and contributed to the accelerating growth of our next generation
technologies."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Zhone's consolidated financial statements presented in
accordance with GAAP, Zhone uses pro forma EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure Zhone
believes is appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of Zhone's
past financial performance and prospects for the future. These adjustments to
GAAP results are made with the intent of providing greater transparency to
supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational
decision-making. These non-GAAP results are among the primary indicators that
management uses as a basis for making operating decisions because they provide
meaningful supplemental information regarding the company's operational
performance, including the company's ability to provide cash flows to
invest in research and development, and to fund acquisitions and capital
expenditures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate
management's internal comparisons to the company's historical
operating results and comparisons to competitors' operating results. The
presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between net loss calculated on a GAAP
basis and pro forma EBITDA on a non-GAAP basis is provided in a table
immediately following the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations. ZHONE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
