Lumentum Holdings Inc. reported strong fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 results, with revenue and earnings per share exceeding expectations. The company's recent guidance for the first quarter also surpassed estimates, largely attributed to increasing artificial intelligence capital expenditure towards optical components.

However, some analysts remain cautious about the impact of the business cycle on the company's performance.
