_____________

 (a)In evaluating the operating performance of Finisar's business, Finisar
    management utilizes financial measures that exclude certain charges and
    credits required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or
    GAAP, that are considered by management to be outside Finisar's core
    operating results. A reconciliation of Finisar's non-GAAP financial
    measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as well as
    additional related information, can be found under the heading "Finisar
    Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Financial Statement Highlights for the third quarter of fiscal 2014:

• Revenues increased to $294.0 million, up $3.3 million, or 1.1%, from $290.7 million in the preceding quarter.
• The sale of products for datacom applications increased by $ 6.1 million, or 3.0%, compared to the preceding quarter.
• The sale of products for telecom applications decreased by $2.8 million, or (3.2)%, compared to the preceding quarter, primarily driven by the impact of one month of the annual price reductions for telecom products that typically take effect on January 1st.
• GAAP gross margin increased to 35.9% from 35.6% in the preceding quarter.
• Non-GAAP gross margin increased to 37.2% from 37.1% in the preceding quarter.
• GAAP operating income increased $3.0 million to $33.1 million, or 11.3% of revenues, compared to $30.1 million, or 10.4% of revenues in the preceding quarter.
• Non-GAAP operating income increased $1.5 million to $46.3 million, or 15.7% of revenues, compared to $44.8 million, or 15.4% of revenues, in the preceding quarter.
• Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments increased $238.2 million to $554.7 million at the end of the third quarter, compared to $316.5 million at the end of the preceding quarter, principally reflecting the net proceeds of approximately $255.0 million from a convertible debt offering completed during the quarter.
• During the quarter, the Company announced that it entered into an agreement under which Finisar would acquire 100% of the equity interests in u2t Photonics AG for approximately $20 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments and that Finisar would also assume net debt of approximately $7 million. This transaction closed on January 31st, one week into the fourth fiscal quarter.

OUTLOOK

Without taking into account the acquisition of u2t, the Company indicated that it currently expects revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 to be in the range of $290 to $305 million; non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 36%, non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 13.8% to 14.8%, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share to be in the range of approximately $0.38 to $0.42.

After taking into account the acquisition of u2t, including the elimination of any intercompany revenue or expense transactions with Finisar, the Company indicated that it currently expects revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 to be in the range of $296 to $311 million, non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 35.5%, non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 12.8% to 13.8%, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share to be in the range of approximately $0.36 to $0.40.

The Company expects the acquisition of u2t to be accretive to non-GAAP earnings per diluted share in approximately one year as it realizes cost and other synergies over time.

FINISAR NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Finisar provides supplemental information regarding the Company's operating performance on a non-GAAP basis that excludes certain gains, losses and charges of a non-cash nature or which occur relatively infrequently and which management considers to be outside our core operating results. Some of these non-GAAP measures also exclude the ongoing impact of historical business decisions made in different business and economic environments. Management believes that tracking non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share provides management and the investment community with valuable insight into our current operations, our ability to generate cash and the underlying business trends which are affecting our performance. These non-GAAP measures are used by both management and our Board of Directors, along with the comparable GAAP information, in evaluating our current performance and planning our future business activities. In particular, management finds it useful to exclude non-cash charges in order to better correlate our operating activities with our ability to generate cash from operations and to exclude certain cash charges as a means of more accurately predicting our liquidity requirements. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when used in conjunction with our GAAP financial information, also allow investors to better evaluate our financial performance in comparison to other periods and to other companies in our industry.

In calculating non-GAAP gross profit in this release, we have excluded the following items from cost of revenues in applicable periods:

• Changes in excess and obsolete inventory reserve (predominantly non-cash charges or non-cash benefits);
• Amortization of acquired technology (non-cash charges related to technology obtained in acquisitions);
• Stock-based compensation expense (non-cash charges);
• Acquisition method accounting adjustment for sale of acquired inventory (non-cash charges);
• Reduction in force costs (non-recurring cash charges); and
• Acquisition related retention payments (non-recurring charges).

In calculating non-GAAP operating income in this release, we have excluded the same items to the extent they are classified as operating expenses, and have also excluded the following items in applicable periods:

• Gain or loss on litigation settlements and resolutions and related costs (non-recurring cash charges or benefits);
• Shareholder class action and derivative litigation costs (non-recurring cash expenses associated with the derivative litigation related to our historical stock option granting practices and related to the class action and derivative litigation related to our March 8, 2011 earnings announcement);
• Acquisition related costs (non-recurring cash charges);
• Impairment of long-lived assets (non-cash charges); and
• Amortization of purchased intangibles (non-cash charges).

In calculating non-GAAP income and non-GAAP income per share in this release, we have also excluded the following items in applicable periods:

• Gains and losses on sales of assets (non-recurring or non-cash losses and cash gains related to the periodic disposal of assets no longer required for current activities);
• Gains and losses related to minority investments (non-cash or non-recurring benefits or charges);
• Other miscellaneous expenses (income) (non-recurring charges or benefits);
• Dollar denominated foreign exchange transaction losses (gains) (non-cash charges or benefits);
• Amortization of debt issuance costs (non-cash charges);
• Debt extinguishment loss (non-cash charges);
• Non-controlling interest non-GAAP adjustment (non-cash and/or non-recurring charges or benefits attributable to the non-controlling interest in majority-controlled subsidiaries); and
• Differences between cash payable for income taxes and the provision for income taxes in accordance with GAAP, less discrete items.

A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial information to the corresponding GAAP information is set forth below:
