What the Analysts think about Lumentum
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Lumentum stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Lumentum stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Fiscal Q1 revenue rose 136.5% year on year to $1.26 billion, while non-GAAP operating margin reached 42.3%. Management’s Q2 revenue guidance implies another sharp step up, suggesting AI-related demand is translating into substantial growth and operating leverage. (Lumentum)
Lumentum says its second major NPO/CPO win carries purchase commitments exceeding $5 billion, and that rising optical circuit switch demand could support a multi-billion-dollar annual business. Those wins offer a sizeable growth opportunity beyond current transceiver sales. (Lumentum)
Marvell has agreed to acquire Lumentum in an all-stock deal at a fixed exchange ratio, implying about $1,132 per Lumentum share and a 23.9% premium to the unaffected price. The agreement offers shareholders a transaction benchmark and a route into a broader AI-connectivity business, if it closes. (Marvell)
Lumentum’s chief executive said the company cannot meet about 70% of demand for some products through 2027 and about 30% of demand for others through 2028. If capacity expansion or customer qualifications fall behind, strong orders may not convert into sales on time. (Bloomberg)
Two customers accounted for 41.6% of fiscal 2026 revenue, and many customers do not make binding long-term volume commitments. A change in purchasing plans by a major buyer could therefore have a disproportionate effect on revenue and factory utilisation. (StockTitan)
The Marvell deal still needs shareholder and regulatory approvals and is expected to take until the first half of 2028 to close. Because consideration is a fixed number of Marvell shares rather than cash, its dollar value can fall if Marvell’s share price declines before completion. (Marvell)
