Tom and all,

Coherent was mentioned in the Aug 6 issue of S&P Outlook. Earnings
of .78 were noted as above S&P's expectations. They said 'Coherent
is benefiting from an increasing number of applications for their
technology as well as from acquisitions that it has made for cash.'
The estimate for FY 97 was raised from 2.95 to 3.08 and FY 98
estimate was raised from 3.45 to 3.65 to reflect increased revenue.

At those earnings, even without the increase we are looking at
a 98 PE of 13! I have no doubt that 50 will fall.

J
