II-VI Incorporated (Nasdaq:IIVI) (“II-VI,” “We” or the “Company”) today reported results for its fiscal 2021 first quarter ended September 30, 2020.
“We delivered many highlights in the first quarter of FY21 while we continued our relentless focus on risk management and employee safety in the face of Covid-19. The sustained leadership of our diversified and broad product portfolio, strong results that reflected expanding trends in all of our end markets, navigation of the new trade restrictions and the achievement of greater share of the 3D Sensing market, were only a few of the tremendous accomplishments this quarter. September 24th, 2020 was the 12-month anniversary of the largest acquisition in our history, allowing us to demonstrate our ability to identify and scale our merger integration skills. I am pleased that we have achieved increased revenues, delivered synergies ahead of schedule, increased gross margins 330 basis points, and reengaged a number of customers that were on the sidelines before the transaction was approved. Given the demand we are seeing for our datacom and telecom products, this timely acquisition was and continues to be consistent with our strategy to count on some of the world’s greatest mega trends such as 5G and Cloud Computing to deliver a sustainable growth,” said Dr. Vincent D. (Chuck) Mattera, Jr.
Dr. Mattera continued, “Our greater 3D sensing share is demonstrated by the 200% year over year growth, and we were able to deliver strong results in the quarter for the entire business, despite the new trade restrictions. We strengthened our balance sheet through a successful capital raise of $920M with the enthusiastic support of our shareholders, moving our net debt leverage ratio1 down to 1.3x and increasing our cash balance to $684M. In the midst of the Finisar integration, we continued to position II-VI for incremental growth opportunities as we closed both the Ascatron and Innovion acquisitions, to expand our SiC materials expertise into modules and devices to serve the anticipated growth in demand of the power market as the electrification of transportation accelerates.”
