Coherent Corp

BofA Securities analyst Vivek Arya met several <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors" rel="noreferrer noopener">optical and networking component</a> vendors at the industry&#8217;s flagship Optical Fiber Communications (OFC) conference in San Francisco this week.&nbsp;
This year&#8217;s OFC seemed extra relevant due to the increasing importance of optical innovations in enabling higher-speed AI clusters.&nbsp;
Historically, high competition and pricing pressures have hurt the optical industry.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44517705/marvell-launches-next-gen-connectivity-to-meet-rising-ai-demands-in-data-infrastructure" rel="noreferrer noopener">Marvell Launches Next-Gen Connectivity to Meet Rising AI Demands in Data Infrastructure</a>
Still, the rising tide of AI is so strong, the vendors appear more confident in projecting growth for the next few years ($10 billion in calendar 2024, going to $30 billion by calendar 2029, per Lumentum/Lightcounting), significantly as it&#8217;s levered to capex from strong US cloud customers with a mission-critical need to invest in AI, versus more prior cycles driven by cyclically exposed global telcos.
Within optical components, Arya is most positive on Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) (price target $260) in large-cap and Coherent Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>) (price target $125) in SMIdcap, though he also noted positive sentiment at Credo Technology Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRDO#NASDAQ">CRDO</a>) (price target $75), Lumentum Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITE#NASDAQ">LITE</a>) (price target $85), Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) (price target $120) and MACOM Technology Solutions Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTSI#NASDAQ">MTSI</a>) (price target $160).
Going into OFC and last week&#8217;s Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) GTC, the prevailing concern was the imminent launch of co-packaged optics (CPO) solutions in scale-out (between racks) and scale-up (within AI rack), potentially impacting the current discrete pluggable market that uses optical transceivers (Tx) with digital signal processors (DSP).&nbsp;&nbsp;
The reality was that Nvidia mentioned but did not launch any new scale-up solution. In some instances, the roadmap still relies heavily on copper or linear pluggable (LPO). Nvidia&#8217;s CPO announcements are spread out in the second half of 2026 for InfiniBand and in the second half of 2027 for Ethernet, indicating no real urgency in deployment.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, during OFC, Arya heard talks from Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), showing no specific interest in abandoning the operationally sound pluggables approach to jump to CPO.&nbsp;
CPO can indeed save on space and power, but it comes at higher operational costs and has yet to be proven reliable. Any major deployment is pushing out to later this decade despite the strong tech offerings from CPO leader Broadcom and then Nvidia. Overall, Arya remains confident in the pluggable growth at Coherent and key DSP supplier Marvell Technology.
Arya attended Lumentum&#8217;s Analyst Day, where management raised its intermediate-term growth projections towards $3 billion from $2.4 billion given at last year&#8217;s OFC.&nbsp; Per Lumentum, it&#8217;s on track to achieve its $500 million quarterly run rate, exiting this year with $600 million+ per quarter in 6-9 months thereafter and $750 million a year later.&nbsp;
Interestingly, the increase from $2.4 billion to $3 billion is driven more by optical circuit switches (OCS) and high-speed continuous wave (CW) lasers rather than optical Tx, which could help from a margin perspective.&nbsp; Arya maintained the Underperform rating until he got a better indication of OCS industry demand outside Google&#8217;s captive OCS switch. Arya prefers Coherence, which is exposed to many of the same trends but with more attractive valuation and margin expansion opportunities.

Rising Tide Of AI Is So Strong That Semiconductor Optical Industry Projects $30 Billion Total Addressable Market By 2029

Rosenblatt analyst Mike Genovese upgraded Coherent Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>) from Neutral to Buy and lowered the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COHR/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from</a> $115 to $85 on Friday.
Genovese is upbeat on sequential re-acceleration in AI transceivers by the second half of calendar 2025, driven by the Blackwell rollout and Coherent ZR transceiver demand for Data Center Interconnect (DCI) and telecom application that is very strong.
The analyst is bullish on the transceiver market through 2030 and increasingly views co-packaged optics (CPO) as more of an opportunity than a threat because of new products like Ultra-High-Power (UHP) lasers and Optical Circuit Switches (OCS).
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44517267/whats-going-on-with-coherent-stock-thursday" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Coherent Stock Slides as It Plans to Offload Fabrication Site Near University of Illinois</a>
Coherent is also making solid progress in commercializing 200G VCSELs and 100G and 200G EMLs.
Additional reasons for liking Coherent are the strong new CEO, Jim Anderson.
The stock has pulled back to its historical (pre-AI) valuation of under 13 times forward earnings. This likely signals that the buy side believes numbers need to come down due to demand destruction from the new tariffs, including 24% on Malaysian goods.
Genovese did not change estimates, primarily because of the very positive demand messages he heard from companies at the Optical Fiber Conference (OFC) this week. Another reason is that tariffs still seem to be a potentially moving target.
The analyst considers Coherent to be a long-term leader in AI Optics.
Coherent has increased 800G Datacom transceiver revenues every quarter for the last couple of years and now does ~$300 million per quarter in sales. This makes Coherent #2 in global market share after Innolight.
While sequential growth for Coherent in 800G has continued, it has slowed recently.
Investors are now openly discussing Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44645946/microsoft-halts-data-center-expansions-due-to-semiconductor-tariff-concerns-ai-overcapacity-fears" rel="noreferrer noopener">delaying some new</a> Data Center builds.
Nevertheless, the analyst expects Coherent&#8217;s and the overall market&#8217;s 800G Datacom transceiver sales to accelerate in the September and December quarters, driven by attachments to shipments of Blackwell GPUs ordered in the first half of 2025.
In the second quarter of 2025, Coherent&#8217;s Telecom revenues grew 11% year over year, following 17% year over year growth in the first quarter of 2025.
The company noted the strong ramp of new products and said it expects these products to continue to grow over the coming quarters.
Coherent management echoed these sentiments when Genovese met with them this week at OFC.
In addition, Ciena Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CIEN#NYSE">CIEN</a>) and Cisco Systems, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) said that the demand for Hyper-Scale DCI remains incredibly strong at OFC this week. However, any chatter investors hear about Microsoft, in particular, slowing down on some new Data Center investments.
At the OFC meeting, Coherent said it has the vendor&#8217;s most extensive portfolio of CPO components. The company also said CPO equipment is currently 2 to 4 times more expensive than transceiver equipment since it is new and esoteric. Coherent told the analyst it is participating in OCS deployments this year at a significant Hyper Scaler and is engaged in similar planning and bids with others.
According to the analyst&#8217;s checks, Lumentum Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITE#NASDAQ">LITE</a>) is still significantly ahead in EML capacity, but Coherent is finally getting close to ramping up its own EML production.
Genovese is confident that Coherent can expand its production of indium phosphide lasers, including EMLs and CWs, over time.
Coherent has manufacturing locations around the world, including Malaysia (24% tariff), China (54% tariff), other Asian countries (tariff rates mostly between Malaysia and China), and Europe (20% tariff).
Genovese projected third-quarter revenue of $1.44 billion and EPS of 85 cents.
Price Action: Coherent stock is down 9% at $49.06 at last check Friday.

Shares of companies within the broader technology sector are trading lower as markets react to President Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs.

President Donald Trump has set up a new body within the Commerce Department to manage the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022. 
What Happened: A new entity, the United States Investment Accelerator within the Commerce Department, will now oversee the CHIPS Act program, as established by an executive order signed by Trump on Monday.
Despite Trump&#8217;s past criticism of the bipartisan legislation, the White House said in its fact sheet that the new office will focus on &#8220;negotiating much better CHIPS Act deals&#8221; and streamlining investment processes through reduced regulatory burdens and faster permitting.
According to the <a href="https://www.semiconductors.org/chip-supply-chain-investments/">Semiconductor Industry Association</a>, the CHIPS Program has granted awards worth $32.5417 billion and provided loans up to $5.85 billion to 32 companies across 23 states. 
However, the new entity — Investment Accelerator that will be controlling the CHIPS Act, not only plans to expedite corporate investments but promises to deliver &#8221; the benefit of the bargain for taxpayers,&#8221; as per the Whit House fact sheet.
Other primary goals of the body include;
<ul>
<li>Reducing regulatory burdens</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Speeding up permitting;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Coordinating responses to investor issues across multiple Federal agencies; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Increasing access to national resources;</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Facilitating collaboration with national laboratories; </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Working with all 50 state governments and their economic development organizations.</li>
</ul>
Here are the U.S.-listed beneficiaries that have received grants under the CHIPS and Science Act, 2022 in the past.

Why It Matters: Trump has been vocal about his criticism of the CHIPS Act. On March 4, during his joint address to Congress, he said, &#8220;Your Chips Act is a horrible, horrible thing.&#8221;
He also urged U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to &#8220;get rid&#8221; of it and use &#8220;whatever is left over&#8221; to &#8220;reduce debt or any other reason you want to.&#8221;
However, the White House&#8217;s new plan has passed on the management of the act to the new entity. Since his time in office, Trump has been able to convince companies to invest in the U.S.
In early March, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE: TSM revealed its plans to inject another $100 billion into U.S. advanced semiconductor manufacturing, significantly expanding its ongoing $65 billion Arizona initiative and bringing total investment to $165 billion.
Similarly, the Magnificent 7 companies are widely expected to spend more than $330 billion on capex in 2025. While the chipmaker Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) hasn't explicitly mentioned a target during its earnings call, the iPhone maker Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) broadly expects to spend $500 billion over the next four years. The remaining companies, however, have provided a specific target for 2025.

Days After Calling The CHIPS Act A 'Horrible Thing,' Donald Trump Sets Up New Entity For 'Negotiating Much Better...Deals:' Here's More

- Coherent Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>), a global leader in photonics, will show a live demonstration of its silicon photonics-based 1.6T-DR8 transceiver module using a Marvell&#xAE; Ara 3nm optical digital signal processor (DSP) at OFC 2025. This transceiver features 200 Gbps electrical and optical interfaces.
While the most advanced DSPs deployed in datacom transceivers today use 5nm node sizes, there is a constant push to an even smaller node size in order to minimize electrical power dissipation. Coherent's transceiver in this demonstration uses Marvell Ara DSP, a 3nm 1.6T PAM4 optical DSP, which aims to reduce the power dissipation of 1.6T optical transceivers by over 20%. Energy efficiency improvement reduces operational costs and enables new AI server and networking architectures to address the need for higher bandwidth and performance for AI workloads within the significant power constraints of the data center. "Demonstrating this next generation of 1.6T transceivers highlights the versatility and robustness of our silicon photonics platform and highlights our strong drive to continually reducing power consumption," said Dr. Jack Xu, Vice President of Engineering for transceivers at Coherent. "As the industry transitions into the era of 200G optical lanes, we remain committed to reinforcing our market leadership by being at the forefront of innovation." &nbsp;

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
