SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Lumentum Holdings Inc. ("Lumentum" or the "Company") today reported results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended July 2, 2022.

"In fiscal 2022, we achieved record revenue in datacom EMLs, coherent components, pump lasers, tunable products, and sub-sea components, with company profitability above our target model of 50 percent gross margin and 30 percent operating margin. Fourth quarter revenue was above our midpoint, with both operating margin and earnings per share exceeding the top end of guidance. In addition, we are making meaningful progress in alleviating component shortages in our Telecom business," said Alan Lowe, President and CEO.

"On August 3rd, we completed our acquisition of NeoPhotonics, and yesterday we announced our purchase of IPG's telecom transmission product lines, both of which position us to create even more value for our cloud and networking customers. Our guidance for the first quarter and outlook for fiscal 2023 reflects the previously discussed share normalization in 3D sensing for smartphones. As we close a solid year and position the company for growth with these investments, we expect that the business fundamentals will drive a mix shift toward our Telecom, Datacom, and Commercial Lasers businesses, supporting double-digit revenue growth in fiscal 2023 and beyond," added Mr. Lowe.

Business Outlook

Lumentum expects the following for the fiscal first quarter of 2023:

  • Net revenue in the range of $490 million to $520 million
  • Non-GAAP operating margin of 25.0% to 27.0% 
  • Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.45 to $1.70

We have not provided reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP measures for our outlook. A large portion of non-GAAP adjustments, such as restructuring charges, stock-based compensation, non-cash income tax expense and credits, integration related costs, and other costs unrelated to current and future operations are by their nature highly volatile and we have low visibility as to the range that may be incurred in the future. The non-GAAP diluted earnings per share forecast is based on an estimated share count of 71.5 million utilizing the treasury stock method.
