In the Q3 2020 Investor Letter, Carillon Eagle Mid Cap Growth Fund highlighted a few stocks and Coherent Inc (NASDAQ:COHR) is one of them.

In the last one year, Coherent Inc (NASDAQ:COHR) stock lost 11.2% and on December 31st it had a closing price of $150.02. Here is what Carillon Eagle Mid Cap Growth Fund said:
“Coherent is an international company that designs and manufactures a variety of laserbased photonic products and is also key equipment supplier in the production of Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) screens. The firm has experienced some headwinds as of late, as the investment cycle for customers in China has slowed down from earlier expectations. We continue to believe that smartphones will eventually transition to OLED screens, and as the 1.5 billion smartphones sold annually transition to these much more efficient screens, it should lead to healthy growth for this key equipment.”
