    Management Comments

    "We continued to see upward momentum in our emerging growth products with strength in welding, primarily in e-mobility applications, cleaning, solar cell manufacturing, medical and 3D printing applications in the third quarter," said Dr. Eugene Scherbakov, IPG Photonics' Chief Executive Officer. "The operating environment remains challenging, including currency headwinds, softer general industrial demand in Europe and Covid-related restrictions in China. At the same time, we are seeing accelerating investments in lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles globally and expect to benefit from continued higher sales to EV applications in the next several years. Additionally, our medical sales nearly doubled compared to the same period last year as we are focusing on diversifying revenues across end markets and applications and reducing cyclical sensitivity of the business."

    Financial Highlights

    Third quarter revenue of $349 million decreased 8% year over year. The strong U.S. dollar reduced revenue by approximately $26 million or 7% compared to the same period last year. Materials processing sales accounted for 90% of total revenue and decreased 10% year over year with higher sales in welding, cleaning and solar cell applications offset by lower revenue in cutting applications in China and Europe. Sales into Other applications increased 10% year over year, driven by the strength in medical, partially offset by lower revenue following the divestiture of the telecom transmission product lines and lower sales in advanced applications. Emerging growth products sales accounted for 43% of total revenue.

    Revenue in high power continuous wave (CW) lasers declined 14% year over year due to lower demand in high power cutting applications, which was partially offset by strong growth in welding. Sales of pulsed lasers declined 6% compared with the prior year due to lower demand in cutting and marking applications, partially offset by growth in solar cell manufacturing and cleaning applications. By region, sales increased 1% in North America and decreased 13% in Europe, 14% in China and 21% in Japan on a year-over-year basis.

    Earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $1.47 increased 5% year over year. The gain on sale of the telecom transmission business increased operating income by $22 million and benefited diluted EPS by $0.32, which was slightly offset by a restructuring charge of $1 million or $0.01 per diluted share, also related to the telecom business. Foreign exchange transaction gains increased operating income by less than $1 million. The effective tax rate in the quarter was 21%, benefiting from certain discrete items. During the third quarter, IPG generated $76 million in cash from operations. Capital expenditures were $25 million and stock repurchases were $71 million in the quarter.

    Business Outlook and Financial Guidance

    “Third quarter book-to-bill was slightly above one as higher bookings for emerging growth products across most geographies helped to offset some of the weaknesses in European and Chinese cutting markets. Despite increased global economic uncertainty, we believe that macro trends such as e-mobility, investments in renewable energy and automation as well as focus on energy efficiency due to increased energy costs should continue to drive higher demand for our lasers," concluded Dr. Scherbakov.

    For the fourth quarter of 2022, IPG expects revenue of $300 to $330 million. The Company expects the fourth quarter tax rate to be approximately 25%. IPG anticipates delivering earnings per diluted share in the range of $0.70 to $1.00. The fourth quarter guidance range is reduced by approximately $28 million due to foreign currency headwinds that are related to the current strength of the U.S. dollar as compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

    As discussed in more detail in the "Safe Harbor" passage of this news release, actual results may differ from this guidance due to various factors including, but not limited to, trade policy changes and trade restrictions with Russia, the COVID-19 pandemic, product demand, order cancellations and delays, competition, tariffs, currency fluctuations and general economic conditions. This guidance is based upon current market conditions and expectations, and is subject to the risks outlined in the Company's reports filed with the SEC, and assumes exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar of Euro 1.02, Russian ruble 57, Japanese yen 145 and Chinese yuan 7.10, respectively.
