On July 28, Lumentum fell 3.23% in pre-market trading, trading at $690.22/share, with turnover of $5.35 million. The decline comes as the broader optical communication sector continues to extend its sell-off, with Corning, Marvell Technology, and Coherent each down over 3%, while Ciena also declined more than 2%.
The sector has been under sustained pressure following a sharp sell-off on July 24–25 when Philadelphia Semiconductor Index components fell broadly, with optical names including Astera Labs (-10.82%), Credo (-9.87%), and Coherent (-9.84%) leading declines. Lumentum itself dropped 3.58% during regular trading on July 27, extending a correction that has seen the stock fall over 30% from its May highs.
Within the Communication Equipment sector, Cisco declined 0.5%, Arista Networks fell 2.16%, Nokia dropped 2.11%, and Applied Optoelectronics fell 4.33%, while F5 Inc was flat. Lumentum's next earnings report is expected on August 11 after market close, with consensus EPS of $2.62.
