ADTRAN, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADTN) reported results for the fourth quarter of 2010. Sales increased 33% to an all time record level of $165,329,000 for the quarter, compared to $124,231,000 for the fourth quarter of 2009.

ADTRAN Chief Executive Officer Tom Stanton stated, “Our fourth quarter results highlight the demand that has been building in our business as quarterly and yearly sales both achieved new record levels. Most notably in the quarter, total sales of our three growth categories increased 50% over the fourth quarter the prior year. This performance included individual records in each of these categories. Broadband Access saw growth of 75% over the fourth quarter the prior year led by expanding deployments of our Total Access 5000 platform and related services revenue. Our Internetworking category grew 37% over the fourth quarter the prior year as we continued to see growth across all of our distribution channels. Optical Access grew 24% over the fourth quarter the prior year, indicative of the strength we saw across all of our mobility products. We believe increasing customer investments are aligned well with our strategic areas of focus and that we are positioned well for long term growth.”
The Company also reported that the provision for income taxes in the fourth quarter of 2010 included a benefit of $4.5 million as a result of federal legislation extending research tax credits for the 2010 year.
The Company reported that stock-based compensation expense for the fourth quarter of 2010 reduced diluted earnings per share by $0.03 compared to a reduction of $0.03 for the fourth quarter of 2009.
