IPG Photonics reports Q4 EPS 89c, consensus 95c

Reports Q4 revenue $298.9M, consensus $286.12M. “Fourth quarter revenue came in at the top of our expectations with higher sales in welding, cleaning, 3D printing and medical applications. We also saw increased demand in e-mobility applications outside of China. This growth was offset by continued soft industrial demand across many major geographies and lower sales in e-mobility applications in China,” said Dr. Eugene Scherbakov, IPG Photonics’ Chief Executive Officer. “In 2023, we focused on diversifying and growing our revenue outside of flat sheet cutting and away from China. Many of the emerging growth products delivered strong results and displaced other laser and non-laser technologies. IPG continued to generate strong cash flow from operations and returned capital to our stockholders.”
