ADTRAN Holdings, Inc. ADTN reported mixed second-quarter 2025 results, with the top line surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate but the bottom line missing the same.
The company recorded a top-line expansion year over year, driven by solid demand trends in both segments. Management’s focus on cost optimization and enhancing its operating model to ensure higher long-term shareholder returns is positive. However, macroeconomic headwinds are worrisome.
