Latest MKSI News
Your Coherent Stock Thesis Has One Loose End
Coherent (COHR) could turn its AI data center orders into much larger profit, or lose part of that gain to production costs. Demand is the settled part of your thesis. Management has said the company is booked through the end of calendar 2027. The loose end is how much of each sales dollar Coherent keeps after the cost of making its products.
What Needs To Be True To Buy Coherent Stock Now?
Coherent (COHR) makes optical transceivers and other parts for AI data centers, and customers are ordering years ahead. On the fiscal Q4 2026 call, management said fiscal 2027 is basically booked out. The hard part is the price. Coherent stock returned 196% over the past twelve months, against 16.0% for the S&P 500. How much profit growth are you paying for at today's price.
Is KLA Stock Really Expensive?
KLA's market value is 53.2 times its profit over the past twelve months, well above its three-year average of 36 times. A multiple that high means buyers are paying today for profit the company has not earned yet. So is KLA (KLAC) stock really expensive for the growth its business delivers.
What Does Amphenol Offer That Coherent Does Not?
Coherent (COHR) and Amphenol (APH) both sell connections inside AI data centers, but Coherent relies on that business more. Data center and communications made 79% of Coherent's latest quarterly revenue. At Amphenol, sales from IT datacom made up 43% of Q2 2026 sales, and communications networks another 11%. At 68.6 times the past twelve months of profit, Coherent's price makes sense only if its orders become sales and cash. So what does Amphenol offer you that Coherent does not.
