 PROFILE
Does the name Lucent Technologies ring a bell? The company is one of North America's top makers of telecom equipment and software. The storied Bell Laboratories develops many of Lucent's products, but the company has become a force in the broadband networking market through acquisitions. Most of Lucent's customers are telecom providers such as AT&T (12% of sales). Lucent, itself a spinoff from AT&T, has spun off noncore businesses including its enterprise networks (Avaya) and microelectronics (Agere Systems) units to raise desperately needed funds. The troubled company has also used layoffs and outsourcing to cut costs. Lucent is selling its fiber-optic cable business.
