1. Lumentum Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:LITE)

Lumentum Holdings skyrocketed by 40.87 percent week-on-week, to hit a new all-time high, as investors digested its swing to profitability in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

On Friday alone, the stock rallied to a fresh all-time high anew of $558.38 before trimming gains to finish the session just up by 9.43 percent at $551.99 apiece.

In an updated report, Lumentum Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:LITE) said that it swung to a net profit of $78.2 million in the second quarter ending December from a $60.9 million loss in the same period a year earlier. Net revenues surged by 65 percent to $665.5 million from $402.2 million year-on-year.

Revenues hit the high-end of its earlier guidance, while profitability and earnings per share exceeded its previous outlook.

“Our forward guidance calls for over 85 percent year-over-year revenue growth, yet we are only at the starting line for two substantial opportunities: optical circuit switches (OCS) and co-packaged optics (CPO). In OCS, we are scaling rapidly to meet extraordinary customer demand that has already driven our backlog well beyond $400 million. In CPO, we received an incremental multi-hundred-million-dollar order, deliverable in first half of 2027. Our results continue to highlight the strength of our roadmaps for both optical components and systems, which make us mission-critical to the world’s AI leaders,” said Lumentum Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:LITE) President and CEO Michael Hurlston.

Encouraged by the results, Lumentum Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:LITE) raised its revenue growth outlook for the third quarter ending March to be at $780 million to $830 million, or an implied growth of 83 percent to 95 percent from the $425.2 million reported in the same quarter last year.
