Business Transition Developments

Developments Leading into Transitional FY19 (ended 6/30/19)

• Capital allocation strategy: CapEx, capital leases, R&D, M&A

o Major acquisition of ISP in December 2016 included equity issuance and debt;

closure/transfer of NY location

o Capital investments and R&D for product development – heavy investments

completed

• Introduction of groundbreaking Black DiamondTM chalcogenide-based glass

compound marketed as BD6

• Significant demand led to capacity constraints until new machines and facility

expansions fully operational

• IR products driving sales and bookings growth

• Record bookings/backlog new realities – longer processing times; margin differential

• Global economic factors; pricing pressure for select products/markets

Market Estimated Size Estimated Growth Rate

IR Products $500 Million 7%-10%

PMO/Visible Products $300 Million 3%-5%

Combined $800 Million 6%-7%

Page 20: Global Leader in Optical Technology - B. RILEY FBR CONFERENCE · 2019-05-22 · Global Market Insights-Source •Est. $4 billion by 2023 from $2.7 billion in 2017 with 6.7% CAGR Market

Business Transition Initiatives -- May 2019

1. Continuing to increase 12-month backlog, while also growing

revenues, so that we enter each quarter with at least 75% of our

forecasted revenue booked. Certain PMO contracts can be

booked and fulfilled in the same quarter, while most IR contracts

take more than a quarter to record as revenue from the time

the orders are booked.

2. Reducing our product process cycle time, including efforts to

transition IR lens elements from diamond turned to molded.

3. Continuing to implement cost reductions in our manufacturing

process.

Multiple Areas for

Gross Margin Improvement

IR Business Revenue Growth

• Acquired ISP’s IR Business with approx. $12 million in revenues in December 2016

• Consolidated IR revenues increased to over $16 million for fiscal year ended 6/30/18, representing

organic growth of 33% in nearly 18 months

• Accelerated traction: bookings in the fiscal fourth quarter ended 6/30/18 increased by 43% to $9.9

million from $6.9 million in the prior year driven by IR growth

• With continued IR growth, LPTH is well-positioned to benefit from improvements in its IR gross

margins.

Gross Margin Improvements Focused on IR Business

• Cost of materials - introduction of new BD6TM product family

• Labor – reduced expense given easier handling and processing of BD6

• Transition out of NY – lower cost basis; more efficient and available labor pool

• Capital investments – enables vertical integration for reduced handling and shipping costs; higher

volume manufacturing; improves turns

• Improved factory utilization with increased volume/orders and more efficient practices

• Management implemented similar strategies for PMO lens operations when consolidated

GM increased from 35.8% in fiscal 2012 to 53.9% in fiscal 2016 (pre-ISP) acquisition
