As previously reported, Northland analyst Tim Savageaux downgraded Coherent (COHR) to Market Perform from Outperform with a price target of $125, up from $105. Like peers Fabrinet (FN) and Lumentum (LITE), Coherent guided mid range fiscal Q2 revenue ahead of the firm’s estimates, but “with some important differences,” the analyst tells investors. While noting similar superlatives around data center demand, Coherent guided to a “much wider” relative range than peers that includes sequential declines at the low end and 5% comparable sequential growth, versus 10%-20% at peers, the analyst explains.
