COHR designs, manufactures, and sells engineered materials, opto-electronic components and devices, as well as lasers for industrial, telecommunications, electronics, and appliance customers. The company’s second quarter fiscal 2026 earnings report showed revenue of $1.69 billion (a 17.4% year-over-year gain), non-GAAP earnings per share of $1.29 (up from $1.16 in the prior period), and guidance of up to $1.84 billion in revenue and EPS of $8.4.
