Ciena® Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN), the network specialist, today announced that Joseph Chinnici, senior vice president, finance and chief financial officer, plans to resign from his position by the end of the current calendar year. The Company announced it has begun a search for his successor.

With Cienas return to profitability and steady progress toward a normalized operating model, it is time for me to make the change Ive contemplated for some time, said Chinnici. I decided to announce my intentions in order to allow sufficient time to facilitate the transition to my successor and to address effectively Cienas outstanding corporate objectives for this fiscal year. I am very proud of the exceptionally strong organization Ive assembled and I have every confidence that they have the financial discipline, controls and expertise necessary to support the Companys continued growth.

Commenting on Chinnicis contributions during his tenure, Cienas President and CEO Gary Smith said, During the last 12 years Joe has helped see Ciena through both positive and challenging times. While he will be missed personally and professionally, Im confident the strength of his organization and the processes hes put in place will make for a smooth transition to his successor.
