Coherent stock drew attention as reported takeover talks put optics peers in focus. A potential deal could reshape competition in AI data center connectivity.

Optics Deal Raises Competitive Questions

  • Marvell was reported to be in advanced talks to acquire Lumentum, a major supplier of optical components for AI data centers.
  • Coherent could face a tougher competitor, although greater scarcity in optical capacity could also support its positioning.
  • The reported transaction had no final agreement or disclosed terms when the report was published.

Reported takeover talks involving Marvell and Lumentum put Coherent in focus during the week ended Friday, October 30. In a report published October 29, 24/7 Wall St. said Bloomberg had reported advanced negotiations for Marvell to acquire Lumentum.

The report said no final agreement had been reached and that terms could still change. Lumentum supplies lasers and optical components for cloud and AI data centers, while its indium-phosphide products were described as running ahead of available supply.

Potential Rivalry Shift

A completed transaction could give Marvell greater control over optical components used in AI infrastructure. For Coherent, that creates a competitive question: a combined Marvell and Lumentum could become a stronger rival in AI optics.

The same report identified a second possible reading. A disclosed price for Lumentum could reset how investors value scarce optical capacity, while the transaction itself would underline the importance of photonics to expanding data center networks. Neither outcome is assured while negotiations remain unresolved.

The real-time quote of Coherent stock traded at 189.23 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 10:48 CET on Saturday, October 31, 2026.
