In the fiscal fourth quarter, San Jose-based Cisco earned 55 cents a share on $12.4 billion in sales. Switching products revenue, which accounts for nearly 30% of the business, generated $3.65 billion in sales, down 4%, while routing products fell 7%.

"We are executing well in a tough environment and delivered our best non-GAAP earnings per share quarter in our history. I'm pleased with how we are transforming our company over the past several years and that journey continues," John Chambers, Cisco chairman and CEO said in a press release. "We are focused on growth, innovation and talent, especially in the areas of security, data center, software, cloud and internet of everything. Our strategy is sound, our financials are strong, and our market leadership is secure.
