Coherent Corp. (COHR) — Available-Data Snapshot

We don't publish a discounted-cash-flow fair value for Coherent Corp. (COHR) because the free data sources we rely on don't expose the multi-year financials a DCF needs — common for small or thinly-covered listings. Rather than invent numbers, this page shows an honest snapshot of what the public data does support: the current price and size, any relative valuation multiples that exist, a book-value view, and a price-based read. Treat it as a descriptive starting point, not a valuation and not investment advice.

On the numbers we do have, COHR trades at a recent price of $268.64, a market capitalisation of about $52,608,376,832, sitting 51% of the way up its 52-week range ($90.00–$440.00), on the NYSE.

The standard alternative to a DCF is relative valuation — comparing COHR's trading multiples against a sector benchmark. Here that gives P/E of 66.2× (richer than the peer median of 28.4×); Fwd P/E of 19.3× (in line with the peer median of 18.8×); P/B of 4.8× (cheaper than the peer median of 19.9×); P/S of 7.4× (cheaper than the peer median of 11.1×); EV/EBITDA of 38.3× (richer than the peer median of 26.8×). A cheaper multiple than peers can flag a discount or a market that expects weaker growth; it is a comparison, not a recommendation.

The asset, or book-value, lens is the classic tool for asset-heavy businesses and financials. COHR shows a price-to-book (P/B) of 4.82 and book value of $55.70 per share. Price-to-book compares the market price to the accounting net-asset value per share; below 1.0 can mean a discount to net assets or that the market is pricing in trouble — descriptive either way, never a buy signal on its own.

Finally, a price-based read — explicitly not a valuation. COHR is in a mixed trend, trading -38.9% from its 52-week high. Over the past year the stock is +184.5%. Moving-average trend and 52-week position describe where the stock has traded; they say nothing about what it is worth.

What's missing and why: we can't build a DCF for COHR because the data source doesn't reliably provide dividend. We would rather say so plainly than manufacture a precise-looking number from nothing. As coverage improves, or for larger and more widely-followed listings, a full intrinsic-value model becomes possible.
