Optoelectronics is a technology that extends the speed and capacity of conventional electronic solutions by addressing many of the constraints of the electron with the particle of light, the photon. Zacks Long-term opinion- The company is attractive as it continues to benefit from the growth of high speed fiber optic communications systems. Due to the growth of high-speed telecommunications systems, the company is enjoying robust demand for its two fiber optic components: external modulators and 980nm pump lasers. For the first quarter of fiscal 1999 the company reported EPS of $0.24 versus $0.17 in the same period last year. Earnings were driven by the strong demand for products associated with the wavelengths division multiplex. The company's $62 million acquisition of Broadband Communications Products is expected to be neutral for the following quarters. The acquisition will offer the company the competency in a new market niche and should support management's optical market ambitions. Going forward, the company should be able to achieve 30% growth over the next five years.
