Coherent Inc reported a solid top-line performance for QQ4 2024 with revenue of $1.314 billion, up approximately 9% year-over-year and about 8.7% quarter-over-quarter, signaling resilient demand for laser technologies in OEM and industrial laser segments. Gross margin remained constructive at 32.9%, and EBITDA delivered $192 million with an operating margin near 5.9%, reflecting the ongoing investment in R&D and a product mix that supports higher value-added laser solutions. Net income, however, registered a net loss of $79.9 million for the quarter, driven by material non-operating items including a substantial negative impact from other income/expenses and interest expense; the quarter also featured meaningful ongoing depreciation and amortization, contributing to a modest operating cash flow generation of $162.3 million.
