II-VI acquired Coherent in 2022 for roughly $7 billion and adopted the acquired name, joining a compound semiconductor materials maker with a laser company founded in 1966. The combination spans optical transceivers for datacenter networking, which became the growth engine as AI clusters demanded higher bandwidth, industrial lasers for cutting and welding, and silicon carbide substrates. Vertical integration from crystal growth through finished module is the strategic argument. Headquarters are in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania.

Coherent equity questions
- How much does it cost to hedge COHR stock?
- The cost of a protective put depends on how far below the current price you set the floor, how long the protection lasts, and COHR's option-implied volatility. A zero-cost collar lowers that cost by selling away some upside. The calculator above prices both structures off the current COHR option chain and shows the annual cost, maximum loss, and tax treatment.
- Does Coherent grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at Coherent typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do Coherent RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. Coherent restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
