On August 12, Coherent rose 5.02% in after-hours trading, trading at 377.22 USD/share, with turnover of approximately 66.03 million USD.
On the news front, Coherent released its fiscal Q4 earnings report after market close. The market had consensus expectations of approximately $19.86 billion in quarterly revenue, representing 31.65% year-over-year growth, and adjusted earnings per share of approximately $1.62, reflecting 76.71% year-over-year growth. The Data Center and Communications segment has become the company's primary revenue driver, with prior-quarter segment revenue growing 41% year-over-year and segment profit rising 49%, fueled by sustained AI compute demand driving platform product volumes.
