More information about other risks that might impact the company's business are set forth in the Risk Factors section of the company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q expected to be filed on November 14, 2013 with the SEC. Also, with the exception of revenue, all financial numbers discussed today are on a non-GAAP basis, unless specifically noted otherwise. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between our GAAP and our non-GAAP measures, as well as a discussion of why we present non-GAAP financial measures, are included in our earnings press release that is available on our website. Now I would like to turn the call over to Dr. Thompson Lin, Applied Optoelectronics' President, Founder and CEO. Thompson? Chih-Hsiang Lin: Thank you, Maria. Thank you for joining us today for our first earnings conference call as a public company. I'm delighted to be here today as we share with you our third quarter 2013 achievements. We are very [indiscernible] financial good [ph] job this quarter. In Q3, we achieved record revenue of $20.8 million. This represents 26% year-over-year growth and 6% growth sequentially. We delivered year-over-year growth across all our target markets. Notably, data center revenue grew by $2.2 million from Q3 2012, bringing our data center revenue for the first 3 quarters of 2013 to $13.5 million or 25% of revenue from $2.3 million in the prior-year period. We increased our gross margin to 30.5%, up 255 basis points sequentially, primarily due to the product mix in the quarter. As James will discuss in detail, we are on track with the key metrics with online [indiscernible], that includes driving growth while controlling operating expense and sustained profitability. In Q3, we earned $607,000 in non-GAAP profit. With this being our first earnings call and we may have new listeners on call, Stefan and I will take a few minutes to discuss our markets, key advantage and synergies, then James will review our financial results in more details. Increasing consumer demand for streaming video, social media, mobility and cloud services are driving the need for higher bandwidth. This is forcing service providers and their vendor operators to upgrade their network and service. We focus on 3 high-growth particle access markets; cable-TV broadband, data center and fiber-to-the-home, we are very well positioned in this market, given our cable-TV market leadership, particle expertise and in-house laser capabilities, leveraging our laser and [ph] margins to deliver at developer industries, leading products, we have delivered 36% compound annual growth rate over the past 3 years. Our main mission at AOI is to enable the gigabit age in these 3 high-growth particle access markets. We are very proud of our past accomplishments and very excited by our future opportunities. We view our IPO as a beginning of another exciting journey and we are honored to have you join us. With that overview, I'd like to turn the call over to Stefan, for a brief review of our markets and strategies.

Thank you, Thompson. As Thompson explained, there is tremendous pressure on providers to upgrade access networks and expand data center capabilities to deliver the bandwidth that is increasingly in demand by consumers. Whether it is traditional cable-TV broadband networks or newer fiber-to-the-home initiative, this dynamic is providing new opportunities for fiber-optic technology. Over 52% of Americans that have broadband service at home get this service from a cable provider. Building upon our market-leading position in cable-TV broadband, we see several key market drivers. First, equipment manufacturers are increasingly outsourcing their system design and manufacturing. We expect recent design wins for cable-TV products to contribute to revenue in the fourth quarter and beyond. Second, we see increasing demand for more advanced cable-TV networks in international markets, particularly in China. The recent lifting of government restrictions in combination with funding from the central government is driving this growth. Lastly, in North America, we see macro growth drivers including a potential new upgrade cycle. Historically, cable-TV networks enter an upgrade cycle every 5 to 7 years and it's been about 6 years since the prior cycle began. We believe the implementation of the new DOCSIS 3.1 standard will be a catalyst for a new upgrade cycle. We are starting to see some recovery in the cable-TV market after the disruptions earlier in the year due to industry consolidation. In Q3, our cable-TV broadband revenue grew 8% year-over-year and 38% sequentially. Additionally, we have started to deliver on design wins for our head-end and node products shipping into the Southeast and South Asia markets. Turning now to our Internet data center market. Increasing bandwidth demands within the data center to support cloud computing services and escalating customer access is fueling a fundamental upgrade in the data center. Traditional 1 gigabit per second copper interconnections are being replaced with higher speed 10G fiber interconnection, both from the switch to server and across the data center. Our target customers are the hyperscale data center operators who operate millions of servers and employ white box open architectures. We work closely with system integrators, white box switch and server providers and directly with the end customer to design and qualify our transceivers and active optical cable products. We believe that this puts us in a very strong position in this high-growth data center market. Additionally, last week, we announced our new 40-gigabit transceivers and 40-gigabit active optical cable product lines. We have begun to qualify these new products into our data center customer base and we expect shipments to begin in Q4 of this year. Our success in the data center market began as recently as 1 year ago and we are excited by our growing customer base and sales, which contributes -- which continue to exceed our expectations. Moving on to the FTTH market. We're extremely excited about this activity and this market, as providers move to delivering 1 gigabit per second service to the home. True 1-gig service up and down will fundamentally change the way people interact with the Internet. Using AOI proprietary WDM-PON technology for the first time, service providers will be able to cost-effectively deliver to consumers dedicated gigabit Internet access. 1 gigabit per second is about 140 times faster than current average broadband bandwidth in the U.S. so this represents a sizable and future-proof [ph] enhancement to existing broadband access in the United States. Our WDM-PON gigabit class technology is revolutionary in many respects. First, unlike traditional GPON networks that rely on time division multiplexing and thus are highly dependent on the performance of the silicon chipsets, our WDM-PON products optically combine the signals, using our advanced technology, but electrically operate on simple, Ethernet networking protocol. Combining our highly reliable lasers, specialized packaging and silicon photonic technology, we have developed the optical transceivers for use in the OLT, or central office environment. In this application, the products will send data from the backbone network to the consumer and also receive incoming data from the consumer. We're also developing an ONU transceiver for use at the customer premises that utilizes a tunable laser that is both cost-effective and scalable. Providing a cost-effective, tunable WDM solution at each home provides business model advantages to our customer, while cementing AOI as a leader in this market. We're on track to deliver meaningful quantities of our OLC transceiver modules in Q4, and have received orders for the first half of 2014. We believe that we will begin to see shipments of meaningful quantities of our ONU transceivers as early as Q3 of 2014. Our vertical integration and extensive design and manufacturing expertise from the semiconductor chips all the way to the subsystems, enables AOI to layer on revenue from new markets such as the data center and FTTH markets, on top of our #1 position in the cable-TV broadband market. We will continue to create new products within growing markets that fully leverage our existing laser manufacturing expertise. And lastly, our laser-to-equipment vertical integration approach provides competitive advantages and supports increasing profitability, while offering our customers cost savings and faster time-to-market. With that, I'll now turn the call over to James to review more details about our Q3 financial results.

Thank you, Stefan. As Thompson mentioned, this is our first conference call as a public company. We priced our initial public offering on September 25, raising $33.5 million in net proceeds after underwriting discounts and commissions. We've already begun putting this capital to work by reducing debt and increasing manufacturing capacity. However, while we priced our IPO within the quarter, it did not close until October 1. Therefore, our Q3 balance sheet does not reflect receipt of our IPO cash proceeds or the issuance of IPO shares in our total common share count. Turning to our results in Q3, we delivered record revenue of $20.8 million. This represents 26% year-over-year growth and 6% quarter-over-quarter growth. Although we saw improvement across the board -- excuse me. Overall, we saw improvement across the board, including at the revenue, gross margin, operating income and net income lines. So let's take a closer look at our revenue by customer, geography and market. We continue to deliver -- diversify our revenue within our top 10 customers, as well as among our overall customer base. Historically, 78% of total revenue was from our top 10 customers, with the majority of the revenue among CATV customers. So far in 2013, our top 10 customer base has shifted and we now have 2 data center customers within our top 5. As further example, year-to-date revenue from our #1 CATV customer declined to 22% of total revenue versus 33% of total revenue last year. With the continued increase in data center revenue, we expect this trend to continue, providing further mitigation of historical customer concentration. Looking at revenue by shipping geography. In Q3, and year-to-date, we've sold 60% of our products in the North American market, 26% into the Asian market and the balance among Europe and the rest of the world. This is a change from the full year of 2012 where we sold only 44% into North America, 29% into Asia and the balance in the rest of the world and Europe. As the North American up-cycle continues, we will sell more products into the data center and fiber-to-the-home markets and we expect North America to become a larger percentage of overall revenue. This, of course, will be counterbalanced by gains in the growing Asia CATV broadband market. Looking next at the contribution that each target market provided to revenue in the first 9 months of 2013. We are in 61% from the CATV broadband market, 25% from the data center market, 9% from fiber-to-the-home, and 5% from telecom and other markets. Please notice that for the first 9 months of 2013, data center rose to 25% of total revenue, as compared to only 5% of total revenue last year. We believe that the 9-month trends are more indicative of the percentage that data center revenue will command in Q4 and overall in 2014. But we do expect some fluctuations in revenue quarter-to-quarter among these markets. Looking specifically at Q3 on a dollar basis. We earned revenue of $14.6 million from the CATV broadband market, a 38% increase sequentially over Q2, and an 8% increase over the prior year. Revenue from the CATV market grew primarily from an overall uptick in order flow from our North American CATV broadband customer base. In Q3, our Internet data center revenue was $3.2 million, almost 3x more than our Q3 revenue last year. Year-to-date, we have earned $13.5 million in data center revenue, which is over 5x the revenue earned in the first 9 months of 2012. During the quarter, we added new customers and increased our market share within our existing customer base. Looking at our fiber-to-the-home business, revenue grew 39% sequentially from $982,000, as compared to only $698,000 last year. Fiber-to-the-home revenue in Q3 was still primarily attributed to legacy fiber-to-the-home products. We are only at the beginning of delivering meaningful revenue from our new WDM-PON products and expect to see more growth starting in Q4. Moving down the income statement. In the third quarter, we achieved non-GAAP consolidated gross margin of 30.5%, an increase of 265 basis points from Q2. The increase in margin was mostly due to a more favorable product mix within the CATV market, with more emphasis on North American shipments. The addition of data center revenue from an overall basis, in combination with an upswing in telecom products, also contributed to gross margin improvement. Going forward, we expect non-GAAP gross margin to fluctuate quarter-to-quarter depending upon product mix, geography and customer mix in the range of 28.5% to 32%. Looking at operating expenses, we maintained our standard disciplined approach during the third quarter. We've been able to sustain operating overhead on a relatively fixed cost basis, while earning above market top-line growth. Q3 continued that trend with revenue growing by 26% year-over-year, while operating expenses increased by only 16% over the same period. R&D expense was $2.2 million or 11% of revenue, up $313,000 from the prior quarter. This increase was mostly due to continued investment in R&D for the fiber-to-the-home products and development of our 40G data center products, offset to a lesser extent by NRE from key customers. Sales and marketing expense was $1 million or 5% of revenue, essentially flat when compared to Q2 and in line with expectations. G&A expense was $2.3 million or 11% of total revenue. G&A expense was also essentially flat when compared to Q2, but up $0.4 million or 20% when compared to Q3 of last year. This increase is directly attributable to increased staffing expenses associated with our new public company existence. Non-GAAP operating income was $0.8 million or an operating margin of 3.8%. At this constrained expense level and in combination with increasing revenue, operating margin improved by $0.6 million or 274 basis points over the prior quarter. Non-GAAP net income for the quarter was a record $0.6 million or 2.9% of revenue, as compared to a net loss of $0.2 million last year. During Q3, we achieved EBITDA of $1.8 million or 8.5% of revenue. Our GAAP net income in the third quarter was $0.4 million, with the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP net income comprised of stock compensation expense, amortization of intangibles and unrealized exchange loss. For the third quarter, we generated GAAP earnings of $0.04 per share and non-GAAP earnings of $0.07 per share, using a weighted average share count of 9.1 million shares. Turning now to the balance sheet. We ended Q3 with $8.4 million in total cash and cash equivalents and $26.7 million in total debt. With the completion of our IPO on October 1, we received $33.5 million in net proceeds, exclusive of underwriter discounts and commissions. From those proceeds, we paid down our U.S. credit lines by $9.3 million and paid off $2.5 million of our Asian debt. We therefore now have $10.5 million available on our U.S. credit line, should we need additional funds for short-term working capital or to fund additional CapEx. Looking at capital expenditures to support those emerging markets, we've added several production lines in Taiwan for our data center products and fiber-to-the-home markets. Investing $1.7 million in Q3 and in Q4, we expect to invest an additional $4.1 million for machinery and equipment to further expand capacity. Accounts receivable increased by $3 million from increasing revenue at the end of the period. From an aging standpoint, receivable balances remain consistent with prior periods and highly collectible, with over 94% of total receivables within current or 30-day periods and little or no bad debt. Inventories increased slightly over Q2, and the aging of our inventory balances remained consistent with prior periods. Also concerning inventory, please note that our largest CATV customer implemented a Vendor Managed Inventory or VMI program. Under a VMI system, we manufacturer and ship inventory to a VMI warehouse, but revenue is not recognized until the products are withdrawn from that VMI warehouse by the customer. Under our agreement, goods may only remain in the VMI warehouse for no more than 90 days from when they were placed in the warehouse, at which time the customer has to take receipt of those goods and revenue is recognized. We are closely monitoring the level of goods being placed into the VMI warehouse. So far in Q4, we have orders for $2 million worth of goods that will ship into the VMI warehouse and we believe that this is a reasonable estimate of our total Q4 VMI inventory. Looking forward to Q4, we see healthy market dynamics across all 3 of our target markets. We expect to grow revenue to between $23 million and $23.8 million. This will represent a second record quarter of revenue and provide 22% to 26% year-over-year growth. We expect non-GAAP net income to be in the range between $0.6 million to $1 million. We expect non-GAAP EPS on a fully diluted basis to be between $0.04 per share and $0.07 per share, using approximately 14.1 million shares outstanding. With that, I'll turn it over to the operator to open up for a Q&A session. Operator?

[Operator Instructions] And our first question comes from the line of Simon Leopold from Raymond James.

A couple of things. First, let's go with housekeeping side of this. On this forecast, we're looking at -- I guess, revenue is a little bit higher than we were expecting for December. But not necessarily seeing that showing up strongly in the bottom line. And so, I guess, I'm trying to get a better sense of what the other moving parts are in the December quarter, in terms of either operating expense or gross margin. If you could talk to that point. And then I've got a follow-up on a longer-term trending question.

Simon, this is James. So we see a couple of things contributing to that. The first would be, we do have a product mix that varies by market and varies quarter-to-quarter. So we gave a range to remind folks that within a particular quarter, we can see margin movement, although we're making good progress to advancing margin over term, over the time, in the near term, specifically Q4, we could see some margin changes within the product mix. Of course, we don't know where that will be yet. But could see some margin changes. The other is we have advanced forward spending on R&D for the data center products. So as you know, we've sent a press release out recently about our 40G -- new 40G short reach transceivers for the data center -- and so we've moved forward efforts to accelerate those products, and so that is going to change our expenditure in terms of R&D expense a little bit in Q4. So those 2 contribute to a slight difference in net income expectations and at this revenue level, you can imagine that net income is sensitive to any change.

And in the release, you did talk about some incremental capital investments for the fourth quarter. Are those the investments that, during your deal roadshow, you talked about some capital spending expected in the first half of '14, essentially that's occurring sooner, it's not incremental?

Those are a part of it. We expressed a CapEx spend on the roadshow that went from the roadshow through the middle of '14. And so we are on pace with our capital deployment that we described and so that spending in Q4 just identifies the Q4 spending that we anticipate for data center and fiber-to-the-home. So we're on track for the CapEx spend that we anticipated.

Great. And then from a longer-term trend perspective, I wanted to see if we could hear a little bit more about what's going on in the data center. In particular, I'd like to understand a little bit of the dynamic of where the industry is, the classic "what inning are we in" kind of question, which I tend to hate, but I'm really trying to characterize, trying to understand how long this product cycle trend has. And also, your competitive position, how do you compete in this data center market with larger players?

Thanks, Simon, this is Stefan. So the first question had to do with sort of where are we with respect to the data center. And I'm going to answer that question in 2 ways. First of all, I'm going to talk about where is AOI? How are we executing on our plans in the data center? And I'm pleased to report that we did add a couple of new data center customers in this quarter. They are not necessarily ones that are of the scale of the other customers that we had. They're both in Asia. But they're sizable operators. And I think that the fact that we continue to see customer additions in the data center segment speaks well to our ability to execute and to continue to compete effectively in the data centers. The wider question that you asked was more with respect to the industry as a whole. And kind of where are we with respect to optics in the data center in terms of what inning are we in as you said. And I think -- as we've described before in our prospectus and during the roadshow, there was a fundamental shift in the technology in the data center that started occurring depending on who's data center you're looking at and where, which exact data center you're looking at. It started to occur 18 months to as we speak, in that they were replacing copper connections with fiber optic connections and continue to do so. What we're seeing is that more and more data center operators are making that switch from copper to fiber. And at the same time, we're seeing successive generations of fiber optic technology being deployed among those customers who already have deployed fiber. And that's where this 40-gigabit per second product announcement and some of the activity that we have going on in there is important to us. So the answer to your question is, I mean, I think there's still quite a lot of growth, both in terms of new customers coming in and replacing their copper with fiber, and in terms of new, higher speed fiber optic interconnections being deployed. Chih-Hsiang Lin: AOI advantage.

And -- thanks, Thompson. So your other question had to do with AOI's advantage and how do we compete in the marketplace. Here again, I think our vertical integration strategy plays very well, the fact that we continue to work very closely with our customers to optimize designs and tweak designs for their needs and we just continue to make new inroads with new customers and we see continued strong interest in our, for example, in our 40-gigabit per second product line from our existing customer base, as well as new customers. And so we feel we can complete very effectively, both with the current 10-gig solutions and in the future with the 40-gig solutions as well.

And our next question comes from the line of Troy Jensen from Piper Jaffray.

A quick question for Thompson. Can you talk about just the IPO as a branding event? What this has meant to the company, kind of conversations with customers and just open the door for a potential to land new customers also. Chih-Hsiang Lin: I feel that the IPO gave us 2 advantages. One, for sure, is major customer, really one very strong supplier. So as a public company, really gives us confidence and trust [indiscernible] help us a lot in the business. Second, as you can see, right now, we have very strong demands, especially in data centers from 10G now moved to 40G, including fiber-to-the-home, especially in the WDM-PON. So that's why we, right now we have the capital to expand, to meet what customer want and that's why we are speeding up the investment to increase our metrics [ph] or capacity to mean more customers in the near term.

And how about a follow-up here for Stefan. For the 40-gigabit products, you said it's going to be recognizing revenue in the fourth quarter. And I'm just asking, because some of the other component suppliers seem to take longer to get parts kind of certified before they run through the income statement here.

Yes. We'll be recognizing some revenue in Q4. Now it's not -- there's not going to be a lot of revenue, it will be initial shipments to a couple of customers, but we have orders on the books now. And we expect to ship some of that to generate some revenue in Q4.

All right. And then just the last one for James. What percent of sales are VMI? And just curious if there's any concerns that more customers are going to adopt that model with you.

We'll take that in reverse order. So we have no indication that any other customer is moving to VMI from any of the other customers. In terms of percent, we gave the overall percent of the revenue that CATV was of our total revenue and also gave the kind of the expectation of $2 million in the quarter. Keep in mind a couple of things. First, remember that because of the terms of our agreement that, that VMI inventory has to come in no more than 90 days after it's placed. So it's really a timing difference for us. Number two, this is the first quarter, it really just began. So we're initially into, in the near term, trying to figure out how much will actually get pulled within the quarter. So that's about as much as we can tell you. It's estimated to be $2 million of inventory for the quarter and then we'll continue to see that rollover. But no indications that any other customer has desires in that direction.

And our next question comes from the line of Paul Silverstein from Cowen.

A couple of questions, if I may. First off, the 40G commentary, do you think that's incremental revenue? Or does that just displace 10G? How do we do that going forward?

It's a mixture of both. We do see from the same customers that are deploying or we expect to deploy the 40-gig, will continue to deploy 10-gig in certain areas. But we also see, in new data centers or new deployments that are coming out, that it's probably going to be predominately 40-gig among those customers that are making the transition from 10 to 40.

Just in given what I assume was a higher price points of 40G, all other things being equal, shouldn't that result in incremental revenue? I mean, if I just assumed a 1-for-1 replacement, won't that translate to more revenue?

Yes, it's -- in our estimates, the revenue of the future, we've tried to anticipate those shipments, as well as the 10G products. So it's in our anticipated forward-looking revenue and then into the guidance we've given for Q4. We only give that -- that only -- only that quarter. So...

Jim, I'm not asking you a guidance question. No sense. I'm not asking you about the fourth quarter guidance. I'm saying as a general proposition, as the market transitions from 10-gig to 40-gig and 40-gig shipments increase, both natively and in displacement 10-gig, shouldn't that trend result, without commenting on how that absolutely impacts the numbers, shouldn't that result in greater revenue going forward?

Paul, this is Stefan. I understand what you're asking now. Sorry I didn't quite get that point earlier. So on a per port basis, certainly, the revenue from 40-gig would be higher than the revenue from 10-gig. So yes. From that standpoint, you're right. And I guess the statement that James was trying to make is, we don't give guidance further out. I mean, we've been aware that this transition was going to happen. We've been talking to our customers. We've got qualifications going on. So we've built this thinking into our future plans. And so, yes, it will on a per port basis, increase revenue. But I caution how you model that.

All right. And Stefan, I assume that since data was applied to [ph] these new customer wins that you and James referenced in the data center with a couple of customers you referenced, that, that's factored in as well?

Yes.

I'm sorry?

Yes, yes. That's correct.

All right. Guys, any change in pricing environment?

No, nothing significant at this point. I mean, we always have price fluctuations from time to time. But there's nothing that's significantly impacting our performance in the quarter.

And going back to 40-gig, as the market transitions, I assume -- is there any impact on gross margin?

We are providing margin for individual products. But as a proposition, we do discuss kind of the overall margin among our markets, and our data center products tend to provide margin lift to our overall corporate margin.

All right. And James, going back to Simon's question, it sounds like you identified 2 reasons in terms of the translation from revenue to EPS, one of which was gross margin. So you're telling us we should expect product mix or anything that we should expect some gross margin [ph] product mix oriented, then we should expect some gross margin backslide this quarter, just related to product mix, not having anything to do with pricing or other factors? Is that accurate?

Yes, that's -- we could see product margin variance that could impact margin within Q4. That's correct.

And can you give us any sense for what we're talking about? Are we talking about greater than 100 basis points, do you have that type of visibility?

Yes. Paul, we're really not providing that granularity of guidance. It's going to be within the range of what we normally expect over the term. We continue to do things that improve margin, scale will improve, margin of course. And the product mix really varies. What comes out of VMI is going to impact it. There are just lots of variables. So we really can't give you any more guidance than the range we've given.

Got you. And one last question, my apologies, but maybe I missed it. Can you just give the dollar numbers again on CATV, data center, fiber-to-the-home, telco and other, third quarter? And top 10, I apologize.

Yes. So the CATV revenue was $13.5 million. You're talking about just Q3 now, right? I'm sorry, I looked at another sheet. $14.6 million for Q3; $14.6 million for Q3, CATV; $3.2 million for data center; $0.98 million for fiber-to-the-home; and the balance of approximately $2 million in telecom and other, for Q3.

Got you. And for the top 10 customers?

Yes, the top 10 accounted for, in the quarter, $42.8 million or 78%. I'm sorry, that's year-to-date. 15 -- sorry about that. $16 million within the quarter, 76%.

And you only have one 10% customer, that was 22% if I heard correctly?

Within the quarter, we had one 10% customer that was historically the case, and then we had several that were close. On a year-to-date basis, we would've had a new top 10 customer -- new top 10, 10% customer in the period for year-to-date.

All right. And the one 10%, was that 22%? Did I hear that correctly, James?

Yes.

And our next question comes from the line of Krishna Shankar from Roth Capital.

And I had a couple of questions. You talked about strength in the cable infrastructure upgrade cycle, and can you just give a little more details on that in terms of the breadth of the upgrade cycle you're seeing, both in the U.S. and internationally? And how long you expect that to continue?

Sure. So with respect to cable TV, I think the statement that we're making is that we saw recovery from the first half to the second half, which is mostly a recovery to more normalized conditions. We're not trying to say that we see an upgrade occurring right now on a broad-based basis. But we do see continued growth in our international markets as we've consistently said, particularly in China and some parts of South and Southeast Asia. Turning to the question of an upgrade cycle in North America. That's really more of a 2014 and beyond phenomenon. But we do see indication that it is going to be coming in that time frame. As far as how long that's going to last, I mean, it's a little bit hard to say. They typically last 2 or 3 years though. But that's historical. I'm not, I don't have any reason to believe that will be different this time. But I don't have any strong indication of exactly how long it's going to last this time.

Okay, and my second question is on the WDM-PON deployment. Do you expect that to pick up significantly in Q4? And what's the outlook for that deployment through 2014?

Yes. We can't talk about specific customer deployments or anything like that. What I can say is that we continue to spend, to ramp up our production capacity, as we've discussed. WDM-PON is a big part of our CapEx deployment. And that, obviously, we're doing that for a reason. And that's about as far as I can go in terms of detail.

[Operator Instructions] And our next question is a follow-up from Simon Leopold from Raymond James.

I wanted to see if you could provide a little bit of an update of how your views on each of the verticals may have evolved since your roadshow, which was more than 1 month ago now. My perception is you sound more upbeat on the data center trend, cable sounds like it's improved, but somewhat as expected, and the fiber-to-the-home is more of a long-term trend. You highlighted sort of an inflection point I think in 3Q '14. So what I'd like to hear from you is how your prospectives have evolved over the period since you spoke to investors last.

Sure, Simon. That's a great question, thanks. I think, actually, you hit the answer pretty well on the head. I mean, that is pretty much what we think. Our -- the data center revenue, I mean, we're very pleased about the way that things are moving with respect to data center for us. The 40-gig, as I mentioned, is moving very well, and we're actually accelerating the speed at which we moved to address that market. So that's good for us. Cable TV is pretty much in line with our thinking. Nothing much has changed with respect to our thinking about cable TV in the last 1.5 months or so. And with respect to fiber-to-the-home, again, we are executing the plan that we had. And no major changes to our thinking there either.

And we are completely out of time. I would like to turn it back to Dr. Lin for any closing remarks. Chih-Hsiang Lin: Okay. Thank you all for joining us on our first earnings call as a public company.
