Lumentum Announces Preliminary Financial Results and Reporting Date for Fiscal Third Quarter 2023, and Increased Share Repurchase Program

Lumentum Holdings Inc. ("Lumentum") today announced selected unaudited preliminary financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended April 1, 2023. All information in this press release is approximate due to the preliminary nature of the announcement and is subject to normal quarter-end accounting review.

“Late in our fiscal 2023 third quarter, a network equipment manufacturer who represented more than 10 percent of our fiscal second quarter revenue informed us that due to their inventory management, they would not take the shipments we had originally projected for the quarter,” said Alan Lowe, Lumentum President and CEO. “This shortfall is the primary reason that our fiscal 2023 third quarter revenue will be below the low end of our prior guidance range. Looking ahead, we expect a similar level of shipments to this customer in our fiscal Q4, as we saw in Q3. Nevertheless, our customer relationship remains strong, and we continue to work together closely to help them achieve success.”

Mr. Lowe continued, “We have confidence in our long-term strategy and operating model, and today we are announcing an increase in our share repurchase program.”

For the fiscal third quarter 2023, revenue is now expected to be in the range of $380 to $384 million, compared to the company’s previous expectation of $430 to $460 million.

Lumentum’s board of directors recently approved an increase in our share repurchase program authorization to an aggregate amount of $1.2 billion and extended its duration through May 2025. Lumentum’s previously announced authorization was $1 billion through May 2024. As of April 1, 2023, Lumentum had used $615.5 million to repurchase 7.4 million shares. Lumentum expects to fund the repurchases under the extended share repurchase program out of its existing cash balance.

These preliminary results for the fiscal third quarter of 2023 are preliminary based on information available to management as of the date of this release, and are subject to further change upon completion of standard quarter-end closing procedures. These results do not present all necessary information for an understanding of Lumentum’s financial condition as of the date of this release, or its results of operations for the third quarter of 2023. As Lumentum completes its quarter-end financial close process and finalizes its financial statements for the quarter, it will be required to make judgments in a number of areas. It is possible that Lumentum may identify items that require it to adjust the preliminary financial information set forth above and those adjustments could be material. Lumentum does not intend to update any financial information prior to release of its final third quarter financial statement information.
