What Did Lumentum Holdings Inc. Last Report?
These are the starting values for the dashboard below, as Lumentum Holdings Inc. reported them for the fiscal year ended June 27, 2026 and the year before. At the next filing, compare each current value with these and write down the direction before reading management's explanation.
| Reported measure | FY2026 | FY2025 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $3.0 billion | $1.6 billion | +83.2% |
| Operating margin | 17.4% | -10.9% | +28.4 points |
| Net margin | -230.1% | 1.6% | -231.7 points |
| Free cash flow | $300 million | -$105 million | n/a |
Free cash flow is operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. A change in a margin is stated in percentage points, so a margin moving from 20.0% to 23.0% is a gain of 3.0 points. "Not reported" or "n/a" means the company filed no value under the standard tag, not that the amount was zero. Source: SEC EDGAR: Lumentum Holdings Inc. Form 10-K filed August 17, 2026.

Before earnings or a filing
Review the prior quarter's expectations, unresolved questions, and thesis breakers. Record what you expect to learn from the next filing without predicting a stock-price reaction. This prevents hindsight from rewriting the original thesis.
After the filing
Start with reported statements, notes, and reconciliations. Update the dashboard, then read management discussion. Separate changes caused by volume, price, mix, currency, acquisitions, accounting, and one-time items. Reconcile cash flow and share count, not just earnings per share.
Competitive check
Compare relevant evidence with Arista Networks, Ciena, Cisco, F5, Inc., Motorola Solutions. Determine whether a trend is company-specific or industry-wide. Use comparable definitions and periods.
Macro check
Review global electronics demand, data-center spending, industrial production, automotive production, interest rates and capex budgets, trade policy. Only elevate a macro variable when there is a defensible channel into Lumentum's demand, pricing, costs, financing, or asset values.
Change log
Maintain a dated log with four labels: fact, interpretation, scenario, and unknown. Link every time-sensitive factual change to a primary source. If a prior assumption is wrong, preserve the old entry and explain the revision rather than silently rewriting history.
