The company provided outlook for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The company currently project revenue in the range of $180 million to $190 million, a tremendous expectation in a quarter where typical seasonality in the industry would be a sequential decline of above 15%. The company believes guidance is supported by the continued strong demand for DTN-X on both new and existing routes across a diverse customer base, growing momentum from Cloud Xpress, an exceptional backlog entering the year and some benefits related to calendar year-end money. The company project non-GAAP gross margin in first quarter to be 44%, plus or minus 100 basis points, as we continue to demonstrate the company's ability to deliver strong margins in line with the company's midterm business model. The company projects non-GAAP EPS to be $0.10 per diluted share, plus or minus a couple of pennies. As for GAAP EPS, the company expects it to be lower than non-GAAP EPS by about $0.07 per share, primarily due to stock-based compensation expense.
