Filed August 24, 2022For Securities:LITE

Summary

Lumentum Holdings Inc. (LITE) reported its fiscal year 2022 results, highlighting a diversified business across Optical Communications (OpComms) and Lasers segments. The company experienced a slight decrease in overall net revenue year-over-year, primarily driven by a decline in the OpComms segment due to material and component shortages impacting Telecom and Datacom products, as well as lower average selling prices in Industrial and Consumer. However, the Lasers segment saw significant growth, driven by increased customer demand for kilowatt-class fiber lasers. Strategically, Lumentum has focused on technology leadership and customer relationships. A significant development during the reporting period was the completion of its acquisition of NeoPhotonics Corporation in August 2022, which is expected to expand Lumentum's reach in fast-growing cloud and telecom network infrastructure markets. Additionally, the company made another acquisition of a business focused on telecommunications and datacenter infrastructure, including DSPs and optical transceivers, further strengthening its OpComms segment. Despite supply chain challenges and COVID-19 related impacts, Lumentum remains committed to R&D investment and believes in long-term growth opportunities driven by increased demand for data and digitalization.
