Notwithstanding counsel's siren song, the Court persists in its belief that two plus two equals four. I. Background On March 18, 2006, the Wall Street Journal published an article. According to the article, United Health Group ("United") executives had received back-dated stock options, with "grant dates" designed to coincide with prior low points in the company's stock price. As has become customary, this article led to the filing of numerous securities class actions, now consolidated before this Court. Lead plaintiff California Public Employees Retirement System filed the Complaint on December 8, 2006. The Complaint alleges that United and certain of its officers and directors violated federal securities laws, including §§ 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, §§ 10b, 14(a), and 20A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and related Rule lOb-5. The lead plaintiff purports to represent a putative class which, it claims, suffered compensable injuries during an asserted class period, Case 5 : 06-cv-04327-JW Document 91-2 Filed 07/30/2007 Page 3 of 6 Case 0: 06-cv-01 691 -JMR-FLN Document 202 Filed 06/04/2007 Page 2 of 5 commencing on January 20, 2005, and running to May 17, 2006. II. Analysis Defendants urgently ask the Court to apply the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act's ("PSLRA") heightened pleading standards. The Court, of course, is constrained to do so in any case of this nature. But even under those heightened pleading standards, it remains the law that, in securities litigation as elsewhere, plaintiffs' Complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim where there is a "reasonably founded hope that the [discovery] process will reveal relevant evidence" to support plaintiffs' claims. Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly , 127 S.Ct. 1955, 1967 (May 21, 2007) (alteration in Dura Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Broudo , 544 U.S. 336, 347 (2005)). The Court has carefully applied the PSLRA's standards. This means it takes the Complaint's factual allegations as true, while simultaneously rejecting "catch-all or blanket assertions" of fact or law and unwarranted inferences. In re Navarre Corp. Securities Litig. , 299 F.3d 735, 740-41 (8th Cir. 2002). The Court well knows that in PSLRA-governed cases, plaintiffs must plead specific facts giving rise to "both reasonable and strong inferences" that defendants acted with the requisite state of mind. Id. at 741. The Court wishes to be explicit: it expresses - and harbors - no opinion as to the ultimate merits of this case. But it has eyes to see, as well as a mind to perceive, the nature of plaintiffs' 2 Case 5:06-cv-04327 -JW Document 91-2 Filed 07/30/2007 Page 4 of 6 Case 0: 06-cv-01 691 -JMR-FLN Document 202 Filed 06/04/2007 Page 3 of 5 claims. Plaintiffs' claims are nowhere near as complex as defense counsel suggest. If plaintiffs are correct, this case is incredibly simple. Plaintiffs claim defendants were playing a game with a stacked deck. When awarded options, with deliberately selected grant dates which were already in the money, defendants were playing a game they knew they could not lose; and, unsurprisingly, defendants won. Defendants' dismissal motions trot out - expending forests of trees and trillions of electrons - the requirements of the PSLRA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and GAAP, all to inform the Court, as required by Rule 12, Fed. R. Civ. P., that there is no way plaintiffs can possibly win. The Court has carefully reviewed their briefs. After this review, however, plaintiffs' theory remains clear. Interestingly, plaintiffs' theory has been examined in the public media for years. Indeed, it has won several Academy Awards. Plaintiffs' theory lies at the core of the plot in one of Hollywood's most entertaining and honored films. In The Sting , the bad guy is ultimately brought down by utterly charming con men, played by Paul Newman and Robert Redford. The Sting (Universal Pictures, 1973) . They gain their revenge through a scheme involving "past-posting," or betting on horse races after the results are known. The Court expresses not the slightest opinion as to whether such shenanigans occurred here, but such is the essence of plaintiffs' theory. 3 Case 5 : 06-cv-04327-JW Document 91-2 Filed 07/30/2007 Page 5 of 6 Case 0: 06-cv-01 691 -JMR-FLN Document 202 Filed 06/04/2007 Page 4 of 5 It is a poker axiom that if a player has his knees under the table and cannot tell who the sucker is, he's it.

  • 2012 Annual Report
    2012 Annual Report Notice of 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement Report on Form 10-K Dear Juniper Stockholder, From a financial perspective, Juniper began to return to improving performance in the second half of 2012. While we were not satisfied with our results, we believe we can and will perform better. There were a number of challenges in 2012, including continued macro-economic uncertainty, a decline in the total addressable market for routing and tightening customer demand in major geographies and sectors including Europe and the US Federal Government. While navigating these challenges, we took decisive actions to address performance factors in our control, including restructuring the organization and driving initiatives that have raised our level of execution. These initiatives have contributed to three key areas that together put us in a stronger position for renewed growth and market share gains. Juniper strengthened our product portfolio in 2012. We sharpened our focus as a pure play in high performance networking in three product families: Routing, Switching and Security. We added new product offerings in each of these families in 2012 and we enhanced many of the core products in those families with new capabilities. Early this year we articulated a clear strategy for Juniper in the area of Software Defined Networks. Due to this hard work, we now have the broadest, deepest and highest-performance product lineup in our history, with an ambitious innovation roadmap that is addressing the transformative roles that mobility and cloud computing are playing in the new network. In routing, we remain a strong leader in the edge with our MX line which enables Service Providers to deliver and expand services and maximize revenues faster than other market solutions.

  • NSA-GCHQ Juniper
    TOP SECRET STRAP1 ASSESSMENT OF INTELLIGENCE OPPORTUNITY - JUNIPER 03 February 2011 Executive Summary Background • Juniper Networks, Inc. headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, USA is a high-performance Internet Protocol network products company. Juniper's main products include T-series, M- series, E-series, MX-series, and J-series families of routers, EX-series Ethernet switches, and NetScreen and SRX-series security products. • While Juniper is not necessarily the market share leader in any one space, they are a strong competitor and technology leader across several important markets from a SIGINT perspective. Juniper is at the core of the Internet in many countries by virtue of providing the highest density routers for many years. • Juniper’s leadership in core IP routing and the Enterprise Network Firewall and SSL VPN markets means that the SIGINT community should keep up with Juniper technology to be positioned to maintain CNE access over time. Currently exploit capability • Juniper NetScreen Firewalls models NS5gt, N25, NS50, NS500, NS204, NS208, NS5200, NS5000, SSG5, SSG20, SSG140, ISG 1000, ISG 2000. Some reverse engineering may be required depending on firmware revisions. • Juniper Routers: M320 is currently being worked on and we would expect to have full support by the end of the 2010. Recommendations and Expected Outcomes • Discover Juniper equipment on networks in hard target countries to assess potential Juniper exploitation opportunities with existing capabilities. • Assess potential additional targetable networks if additional equipment models could be exploited (e.g. if we could exploit MX-series routers, then networks X, Y, & Z could be exploited). • Assess an effort to exploit the JUNOS operating system.

Juniper finished the year with over $2.3 billion in revenue. To put Juniper’s growth into perspective, this represents a revenue base that has nearly doubled over the past three years. As we move into 2007, we see a marketplace that presents the Company with significant opportunity to deliver strategic value to customers, scale our ability to execute, and continue to grow our business. New demands on network infrastructure are rapidly rising, and Juniper remains at the forefront of these trends as the vanguard of innovation and progress. Our accomplishments in 2006 stem from the following strategic areas of focus: 1. Delivering best-in-class solutions that continue to progress with the changes in the marketplace. Standalone products are increasingly giving way to more fully integrated solutions for the enterprise market, and in February 2006, Juniper introduced the SSG platform, coupling the best in security with the best in routing. For the service provider market, we saw traction with the introduction of Ethernet line cards as well as the M120 Multiservice Edge Router, and we launched the MX960 Ethernet Services Router. 2. Leveraging our technology for enterprises and service providers to further capitalize on the synergies across these two markets.
