FOURTH FISCAL QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR DETAILS

For the fourth fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017, Coherent announced net sales of $490.3 million and net income, on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, of $73.8 million, or $2.96 per diluted share.  These results compare to net sales of $248.5 million and net income of $30.8 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 was $92.5 million, or $3.72 per diluted share.  Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 was $40.5 million, or $1.65 per diluted share. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures for the three months ended September 30, 2017, July 1, 2017 and October 1, 2016, and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016 appear in the financial statements portion of this release under the heading "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP net income".

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 were $464.1 million and net income, on a GAAP basis, was $61.1 million, or $2.46 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 was $83.4 million, or $3.36 per diluted share.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Coherent posted net sales of $1,723.3 million and net income of $207.1 million, or $8.36 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis compared to the prior year net sales of $857.4 million and net income on a GAAP basis of $87.5 million, or $3.58 per diluted share.  For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Coherent posted net income on a non-GAAP basis of $311.4 million, or $12.57 per diluted share, compared to the prior year net income on a non-GAAP basis of $115.9 million, or $4.75 per diluted share.

As previously announced, on November 7, 2016, Coherent completed its acquisition of Rofin-Sinar Technologies, Inc. ("Rofin"), one of the world's leading developers and manufacturers of high-performance industrial laser sources and laser-based solutions and components. As a result, Rofin's operating results were consolidated for the period from November 7, 2016 through December 31, 2016 in Coherent's first fiscal quarter results ended December 31, 2016, and a full quarter of Rofin's operating results in Coherent's second, third and fourth fiscal quarter results ended April 1, 2017, July 1, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

"Coherent capped a record setting year with a record setting fourth fiscal quarter.  Customer demand over the course of fiscal 2017 was outstanding and resulted in record annual orders of over $2.0 billion.  Microelectronics orders led the way due to sustained strength in OLED deployment and service, very high semi capex spending and a modest rebound in advanced packaging.  Materials processing orders grew dramatically based upon the Rofin acquisition and organic growth.  OEM instrumentation also put up impressive numbers as growth in the core diagnostic and therapeutic space was complemented by organic and acquisitive growth in the aerospace and defense market," said John Ambroseo, Coherent's President and Chief Executive Officer.  "These record results drove strong cash flow and as a result, we made a voluntary 75 million Euro prepayment in September on our debt.  As we enter fiscal 2018, we are very well positioned with backlog at an all-time high, synergies flowing in from the integration of Rofin, and very strong cash generation. The outlook remains positive across the company's four verticals and sets us up for another strong year from operations," Ambroseo added.

CONFERENCE CALL REMINDER

The Company will host a conference call today to discuss its financial results at 1:30 P.M. Pacific (4:30 P.M. Eastern). A listen-only broadcast of the conference call and a transcript of management's prepared remarks can be accessed on the Company's website at http://www.coherent.com/Investors/.
