Nortel Networks, the subsidiary
operational arm of telecom group Nortel, has reported a smaller first-quarter

as its auditor, said sales had also grown as it filed its latest quarterly
report with the SEC.
Th news comes as parent company Nortel sits under a cloud after four former
executives were charged with repeated acts of accounting fraud by the
Securities and Exchange Commission in March
Nortel Networks recorded a loss of $103m (?52m) , or 23 cents a share, in the
first quarter of the year, compared to a loss of $171mi n the same period a year
