Coherent's Datacenter Business Powers its Revenue Growth

Coherent reported fiscal Q4 revenues of $2.05 billion, with datacenter and communications segment generating $1.62 billion (79% of total revenue), up significantly from $1.02 billion a year ago. The company's stock has surged 171% over the past year, driven by strong AI and optical transition demand. Peers Lumentum and Fabrinet are similarly benefiting from the datacenter boom, though supply chain and inventory concerns persist.
