Infrared Optics Market. Over the last few years, significant increases in the installed worldwide base of laser machines for a variety of laser processing applications have driven CO₂ laser optics component consumption. It is estimated that there are over 55,000 CO₂ laser systems currently deployed in the world. Laser systems meet the demand of manufacturers to reduce part cost and improve quality, as well as augment process precision, speed, throughput, flexibility, repeatability, and automation. CO₂ lasers offer benefits in a wide variety of cutting, welding, drilling, ablation, cladding, heat treating and marking applications for materials such as steel alloys, non-ferrous metals, plastics, wood, paper, fiberboard, ceramics and composites. Automobile manufacturers, for example, deploy lasers both to cut body components and to weld those parts together in high-throughput production lines. Manufacturers of motorcycles, lawn mowers and garden tractors cut, trim, and weld metal parts with lasers to reduce post-processing steps and, therefore, lower overall manufacturing costs. Furniture manufacturers utilize lasers because they allow easily reconfigurable, low-cost prototyping and production capabilities for customer-specified designs. In high-speed food and pharmaceutical packaging lines, laser marking provides automated product, date, and lot coding on containers. In addition to being installed by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of laser systems in new machine builds, our optical components are purchased as replacement parts by end users of laser machines to maintain proper system performance. We believe that the current addressable market serviced by the II-VI Infrared business is approximately $450 million.

One Micron Laser Market. In many areas of material processing, laser technology has proved to be a better alternative to conventional production techniques. The precise cut and elegant seam are visible proof of a laser beam’s machining efficiency. Industrial applications such as cutting, drilling and welding have driven the recent market growth of the one-micron laser systems, and are demanding increased performance, lower total

cost of ownership, ease of use and portability of one-micron laser systems. One micron laser systems require efficient and reliable tools, including modular laser processing heads for fiber lasers, beam delivery systems including fiber optics cables and modular beam systems. We believe the current addressable market served by HIGHYAG is approximately $50 million.

Near-Infrared Optics Market. The Near-Infrared laser market is driven by applications in the military, medical and industrial markets. The military laser market is driven by rangefinders, target designators, missile detection, countermeasures and high energy laser weapon systems. Medical applications include aesthetic, vision correction, dental and diagnostic lasers. Industrial market segments addressed by YAG lasers include higher power applications such as cutting and welding, and lower power applications such as marking and scribing. These industrial applications are demanding higher performance levels for less cost, creating competition for other technologies. The near-infrared market further addresses opportunities in the semiconductor processing, instrumentation and research segments. We believe the current addressable market serviced by our Near-Infrared Optics segment is approximately $240 million.

Military Infrared Optics Market. Several key infrared optical components such as windows, domes and related subassemblies are core products offered to the military market for infrared applications in night vision, targeting, navigation and Homeland Security systems. Infrared window and window assemblies for navigational and targeting systems are deployed on fixed and rotary-wing aircraft, such as the F-16 fighter jet, Apache Attack Helicopter, Joint Strike Fighter and ground vehicles such as the Abrams M-1 Tank and Bradley Fighting Vehicle. Infrared domes are used on missiles with infrared guidance systems ranging from small, man-portable designs to larger designs mounted on helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft and ground vehicles. Additionally, multiple fighter jets including the F-16 are being equipped with large area sapphire windows manufactured by our Company, as a key component for the aircraft providing advanced targeting and imaging systems. The development and manufacture of these large area sapphire windows has played a key role in our ability to provide an even larger suite of sapphire panels that are a key component of the Joint Strike Fighter Electro Optical Targeting System. High-precision domes are an integral component of a missile’s targeting system providing efficient tactical capability while serving as a protective cover to its internal components. Our military infrared optical products are sold primarily to U.S. government prime contractors and directly to various U.S. government agencies. We believe the current addressable market serviced by our Military Infrared Optics business is approximately $300 million.

Materials Processing and Refinement Market. Numerous processes require the presence of high purity elements for proper processing. The Company’s Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals, Inc. (“PRM”) business addresses the market for two specific rare elements; selenium and tellurium. Selenium and tellurium usually are by-products of refining processes for other more common materials such as copper and zinc. High purity selenium and tellurium are used in a variety of industrial applications, including the manufacture of steel and glass, in the production of animal feeds and fertilizers, the manufacture of thermo-electric coolers and the production of photovoltaic solar panels. Our products are sold to customers who require selenium and/or tellurium in their manufacturing processes. We believe the current addressable market serviced by our PRM business is approximately $175 million and is highly dependent upon minor metal indexed pricing.

Thermo-electric Coolers Market. Thermo-electric coolers (“TECs”) are solid-state semiconductor devices that act as small heat pumps to cool, heat or temperature stabilize a wide range of materials, components and systems. Conversely, the principles underlying thermo-electrics allow TECs to be used as a source of power when subjected to a temperature difference. TECs are more reliable than alternative cooling solutions that require moving parts, and provide more precise temperature control solutions than competing technologies. TECs also have many other advantages over competing technologies, which have spurred the adoption of TECs in a variety of industries and applications. For example, TECs provide critical cooling and temperature stabilization solutions in a myriad of defense and space applications, including infrared cooled and uncooled temperature stabilized night vision technologies and thermal reference sources that are deployed in smart and state-of-the-art weapons, as well as for cooling high powered lasers used for range finding target designation by our armed forces. TECs

also allow for temperature stabilization for telecommunication lasers that generate and amplify optical signals for fiber optics systems. Thermo-electric cooling solutions appear in a variety of medical applications including instrumentation and analytical applications such as DNA replication and blood analyzers, as well as in medical laser equipment. The industrial, commercial, and consumer markets provide a variety of niche applications ranging from desk-top refrigerators and wine coolers to semi-conductor process and test equipment. Mosquito trap applications utilize the power generation capabilities of the technology to rid residences, resorts and camps of mosquitoes. In addition, power generation applications are expanding into fields such as waste heat recovery, heat scavenging and co-generation. We believe the current addressable market serviced by our Marlow Industries, Inc. business is approximately $265 million.

Silicon Carbide Substrate Market. Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor material that offers high-temperature, high-power and high-frequency capabilities as a substrate for applications that are emerging at the high-performance end of the defense, telecommunication and industrial markets. SiC has certain intrinsic physical and electronic advantages over competing semiconductor materials such as silicon and gallium arsenide. For example, the high thermal conductivity of SiC enables SiC-based devices to operate at high power levels and still dissipate the excess heat generated. Typically, our customers deposit either SiC or Gallium Nitride (GaN) epitaxial layers on a SiC substrate and then fabricate optoelectronic or electronic devices. SiC and GaN-based structures are being developed and deployed for the manufacture of a wide variety of microwave and power switching devices. High power, high frequency SiC-based microwave devices are used in next generation wireless switching telecommunication applications and in both commercial and military radar applications. SiC based, high-power, high-speed devices improve the performance, efficiency and reliability of electrical power transmission and distribution systems (“smart grid”), as well as power conditioning and switching in power supplies and motor controls in a wide variety of applications including aircraft, hybrid vehicles, industrial, communications and green energy applications. We believe the current addressable market serviced by our Wide Bandgap Group is approximately $35 million.

Products are actively marketed through targeted mailings, telemarketing, select advertising, attendance at trade shows and customer partnerships. Our sales forces include a highly trained team of application engineers to assist customers in designing, testing and qualifying our parts as key components of our customers’ systems. As of June 30, 2009, we employed 149 individuals in sales, marketing and support.

We do business with a number of customers in the defense industry, who in turn generally contract with a governmental entity, typically a U.S. governmental agency. Most governmental programs are subject to funding approval and can be modified or terminated with no warning upon the determination of a legislative or administrative body. The discussion provided in the section on Risk Factors set forth in Item 1A of this Form 10-K related to our exposure to government markets is incorporated herein by reference.

Due to our customers’ buying patterns, particularly in Europe, revenues for our first fiscal quarter ending in September are typically below those in the preceding quarter.

Manufacturing Technology and Processes

As noted in the “Our Strategy” section, many of the products we produce depend on our ability to manufacture and refine technically challenging materials and components. The table below shows these key materials.


Product Line		Materials Produced/Refined
• Infrared Optics		ZnSe and ZnS
• Near-Infrared Optics		YAG, YLF, CaF₂ and KNS
• Military Infrared Optics		Ge
• Materials Processing and Refinement		Se and Te
• Thermo-electric Coolers		Bi₂Te₃
• Silicon Carbide Substrates		SiC

The ability to produce, process and refine these difficult materials and to control their quality and yields is an expertise of the Company. Processing these materials into finished products is also difficult to accomplish; yet the quality and reproducibility of these products are critical to the performance of our customers’ instruments and systems. In the markets we serve there are a limited number of suppliers of many of the components we manufacture, and there are very few industry-standard products.

Our network of worldwide manufacturing sites allows products to be produced in regions that provide cost-effective advantages and enable proximity to our customers. We employ numerous advanced manufacturing technologies and systems at our manufacturing facilities. These include automated Computer Numeric Control optical fabrication, high throughput thin-film coaters, micro precision metrology and custom-engineered automated furnace controls for the crystal growth processes. Manufacturing products for use across the electro-magnetic spectrum requires the capability to repeatedly produce products with high yields to atomic tolerances. We embody a technology and quality mindset that gives our customers the confidence to utilize our products on a just-in-time basis straight into the heart of their production lines.

Sources of Supply

The major raw materials we use include zinc, selenium, hydrogen selenide, hydrogen sulfide, tellurium, yttrium oxide, aluminum oxide, iridium, platinum, bismuth, silicon, thorium fluoride, antimony, carbon, gallium arsenide, copper, germanium, molybdenum, quartz, optical glass and other materials. Excluding our own production, there are more than two external suppliers for all of the above materials except for ZnSe, ZnS, hydrogen selenide and thorium fluoride, for which there is one proven source of supply outside of the Company’s capabilities. For many materials, we have entered into purchase arrangements whereby suppliers provide discounts for annual volume purchases in excess of specified amounts.

The continued high-quality of and access to these materials is critical to the stability and predictability of our manufacturing yields. We conduct testing of materials at the onset of the production process. Additional research and capital investment may be needed to better define future starting material specifications. We have not experienced significant production delays due to shortages of materials. However, we do occasionally experience problems associated with vendor supplied materials not meeting contract specifications for quality or purity. A significant failure of our suppliers to deliver sufficient quantities of necessary high-quality materials on a timely basis could have a materially adverse effect on the results of our operations.

Competition

We believe that we are a significant producer of products and services in our addressed markets. In the area of infrared laser optics and materials, we believe we are an industry leader. We believe that we are an industry leader in laser material processing tools for high power one micron laser systems. We are a significant supplier of YAG rods and near-infrared laser optics to the worldwide markets for defense, scientific, research, medical and industrial applications. We are a leading supplier of infrared optics used in complex military assemblies for targeting, navigation and thermal imaging systems to major military prime contractors. We believe we are a leading supplier of selenium and tellurium products for electronic, agricultural and thermo-electric applications. We believe we are a global leader in the design and manufacturer of TECs and thermal control subsystems. We believe we are a preferred alternative to the leading supplier of single crystal SiC substrates for use in the defense, telecommunication and industrial markets.

We compete on the basis of product technical specifications, quality, delivery time, technical support and pricing. Management believes that we compete favorably with respect to these factors and that our vertical integration, manufacturing facilities and equipment, experienced technical and manufacturing employees and worldwide marketing and distribution provide competitive advantages.

We have a number of present and potential competitors that have greater financial, selling, marketing or technical resources. A competitor of our production of ZnSe and ZnS is Dow Chemical. Competitors producing infrared laser optics include Sumitomo Electric and Ophir Optronics. Competing producers of automated equipment and laser material processing tools to deliver high power one micron laser systems include Optoskand, Precitec and Laser Mechanisms. Competing producers of YAG materials and optics include Northrop Grumman and Saint-Gobain. Competing producers of infrared optics for military applications are DRS, Goodrich, Elcan and in-house fabrication and thin film coating capabilities of major military customers, such as Raytheon Corporation. Competing producers of selenium and tellurium metals and chemicals include Umicore and Vital Chemical. Competing producers of TECs include Komatsu, Laird-Melcor, Ferrotec, Kryotherm and RMT. Competing producers of single crystal SiC substrates include Cree, Dow Corning, Nippon Steel, Bridgestone and SiCrystal.

In addition to competitors who manufacture products similar to those we produce, there are other technologies or materials that can compete with our products.

Bookings and Backlog

We define our bookings as customer orders received that are expected to be converted to revenues over the next twelve months. For long-term customer orders, the Company records only those orders which are expected to be converted into revenues within twelve months from the end of the reporting period due to the inherent uncertainty of an order that far in the future. For the year ended June 30, 2009, our bookings, including those bookings converted to revenues prior to year end, were approximately $261 million compared to bookings of approximately $345 million for the year ended June 30, 2008.

We define our backlog as bookings that have not been converted to revenues by the end of the reporting period. Bookings are adjusted if changes in customer demands or production schedules move a delivery beyond twelve months. As of June 30, 2009, our backlog was approximately $103 million compared to approximately $134 million at June 30, 2008.

Employees

As of June 30, 2009, we employed 1,913 persons worldwide. Of these employees, 299 were engaged in research, development and engineering, 1,208 in direct production and the balance in sales and marketing, administration, finance and support services. Our production staff includes highly skilled optical craftsmen. We have a long-standing practice of encouraging active employee participation in areas of operations management. We believe our relations with our employees to be good. We reward our employees with incentive compensation based on achievement of performance goals. Substantially all of our employees located in the Philippines are covered under a collective bargaining agreement.

Trade Secrets, Patents and Trademarks

We rely on our trade secrets, proprietary know-how, invention disclosures and patents to help us develop and maintain our competitive position. We have begun to aggressively pursue process and product patents in certain areas of our businesses. We have confidentiality and noncompetition agreements with certain personnel. We require that all U.S. employees sign a confidentiality and noncompetition agreement upon commencement of employment.

The processes and specialized equipment utilized in crystal growth, infrared materials fabrication and infrared optical coatings as developed by us are complex and difficult to duplicate. However, there can be no assurance that others will not develop or patent similar technology or that all aspects of our proprietary technology will be protected. Others have obtained patents covering a variety of infrared optical configurations and processes, and others could obtain patents covering technology similar to our technology. We may be required to obtain licenses under such patents, and there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain such licenses, if required, on commercially reasonable terms, or that claims regarding rights to technology will not be asserted which may adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, our research and development contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government present a risk that project-specific technology could be disclosed to competitors as contract reporting requirements are fulfilled.

We currently hold several registered tradenames and trademarks including the following:

II-VI Incorporated⁽^™⁾” tradename

Infraready Optics⁽^™⁾” tradename for replacement optics for industrial CO₂ lasers

MP-5⁽^™⁾” tradename for low absorption coating technology

“Marlow Industries, Inc.⁽^™⁾” tradename

“Marlow Industries, Inc.⁽^™⁾” trademark

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

The Company cautions investors that its performance and, therefore, any forward-looking statement is subject to risks and uncertainties. Various important factors including, but not limited to, the following may cause the Company’s future results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statement.

General Economic Conditions and the Global Financial Crisis May Adversely Affect Our Business, Operating Results and Financial Condition

Current and future conditions in the economy have an inherent degree of uncertainty. As a result, it is difficult to estimate the level of growth or contraction for the economy as a whole. It is even more difficult to estimate growth or contraction in various parts, sectors and regions of the economy, including industrial, military, medical and telecommunication markets in which we participate. Because all components of our forecasting are dependent upon estimates of growth or contraction in the markets we serve and demand for our products, the prevailing economic uncertainties render estimates of future income and expenditures very difficult to make. Adverse changes have occurred and may continue in the future as a result of declining or flat global or regional economic conditions, fluctuations in currency and commodity prices, wavering confidence, capital expenditure reductions, unemployment, decline in stock markets, contraction of credit availability or other factors affecting economic conditions generally. These changes may negatively affect sales of products, increase exposure to losses from bad debt, increase the cost and availability of financing and increase costs associated with manufacturing and distributing products. A prolonged economic downturn could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our Future Success Depends on International Sales and Management of Global Operations

Sales to customers in countries other than the U.S. accounted for approximately 44%, 47% and 43% of revenues during the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We anticipate that international sales will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future. In addition, we manufacture products in Singapore, China, Vietnam, the Philippines and Germany and maintain direct sales offices in Germany, Japan, Switzerland, the U.K., Belgium, Singapore, China and Italy. Sales and operations outside of the U.S. are subject to certain inherent risks, including fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies, the current global economic downturn, tariffs, quotas, taxes and other market barriers, political and economic instability, restrictions on the export or import of technology, potentially limited

intellectual property protection, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations and potentially adverse tax consequences. There can be no assurance that any of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. In particular, currency exchange fluctuations in countries where we do business in the local currency could have a material adverse affect on our business, results of operations or financial condition by rendering us less price-competitive than foreign manufacturers. Our sales in Japan are denominated in Yen and, accordingly, are affected by fluctuations in the dollar/Yen currency exchange rates. We generally reduce our exposure to such fluctuations of the Yen through forward exchange agreements which target to hedge approximately 75% of our sales in Japan. We do not engage in the speculative trading of financial derivatives. There can be no assurance, however, that our practices will reduce or eliminate the risk of fluctuation of the U.S. dollar/Japanese Yen exchange rate.

There Are Limitations on the Protection of Our Intellectual Property

We rely on a combination of trade secrets, patents, copyright and trademark laws combined with employee noncompetition and nondisclosure agreements to protect our intellectual property rights. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by us will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology or intellectual property. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that, third-parties will not assert infringement claims against us in the future. Asserting our intellectual property rights or defending against third-party claims could involve substantial expense, thus materially and adversely affecting our business, results of operations or financial condition. In the event a third-party were successful in a claim that one of our processes infringed its proprietary rights, we may have to pay substantial damages or royalties, or expend substantial amounts in order to obtain a license or modify processes so that they no longer infringe such proprietary rights, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We Depend on Highly Complex Manufacturing Processes Which Require Products from Limited Sources of Supply

We utilize high-quality, optical grade ZnSe in the production of many of our infrared optical products. We are the leading producer of ZnSe for our internal use and for external sale. The production of ZnSe is a complex process requiring a highly controlled environment. A number of factors, including defective or contaminated materials, could adversely affect our ability to achieve acceptable manufacturing yields of high quality ZnSe. ZnSe is available from only one outside source whose quantities and quality of ZnSe may be limited. Lack of adequate availability of high quality ZnSe would have a material adverse effect upon us. There can be no assurance that we will not experience manufacturing yield inefficiencies which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We produce Hydrogen Selenide gas which is used in our production of ZnSe. There are risks inherent in the production and handling of such material. Our inability to effectively handle Hydrogen Selenide could require us to curtail our production of Hydrogen Selenide. Hydrogen Selenide is available from only one outside source whose quantities and quality may be limited. The cost of purchasing such material is greater than the cost of internal production. As a result, the purchase of a substantial portion of such material from the outside source would increase our ZnSe production costs. Therefore, an inability to internally produce Hydrogen Selenide could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

In addition, we produce and utilize other high purity and relatively uncommon materials and compounds to manufacture our products, including but not limited to ZnS, YAG, YLF, CaF₂, KNS, Ge, Se, Te, Bi₂Te₃ and SiC. A significant failure of our internal production processes or our suppliers to deliver sufficient quantities of these necessary materials on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Commodity Prices May Adversely Affect our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in commodity prices. Our PRM business purchases, produces and sells high purity Te, Se and other raw materials based upon quoted market prices from major metal exchanges. As a result, changes in commodity prices which may not be recovered in our product sales may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We May Expand Product Lines and Markets by Acquiring Other Businesses

Our business strategy includes expanding our product lines and markets through internal product development and acquisitions. Any acquisition may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities and amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. In addition, acquired businesses may be experiencing operating losses. Any acquisition will involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the acquired company’s operations and products, uncertainties associated with operating in new markets and working with new customers and the potential loss of the acquired company’s key personnel.

The following information relates to significant acquisitions made since the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000.


Acquired Party	Year Acquired	Business Segments	Percentage Ownership as of June 30, 2009
Laser Power Corporation	Fiscal 2001	Military & Materials and Infrared Optics	100	%
Silicon Carbide Group of Litton Systems, Inc.	Fiscal 2002	Compound Semiconductor Group	100	%
II-VI Deutschland GmbH	Fiscal 2003 and 2006	Infrared Optics and Near-Infrared Optics	100	%
II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l.	Fiscal 2004 and 2007	Infrared Optics	100	%
Ultra-violet Filter Product Line of Coherent, Inc.	Fiscal 2004	Near-Infrared Optics	100	%
Marlow Industries, Inc.	Fiscal 2005	Compound Semiconductor Group	100	%
Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals, Inc.	Fiscal 2007	Military & Materials	98	%
HIGHYAG Lasertechnologie GmbH	Fiscal 2008	Infrared Optics	75	%

Exposure to Government Markets

With our acquisition of Marlow and the increase in the military portion of our Infrared and Near-Infrared Optics businesses, as well as our continued Military Infrared Optics business, sales to customers in the defense industry have increased and totaled approximately 35% of revenues in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. These customers in turn generally contract with a governmental entity, typically a U.S. governmental agency. Most governmental programs are subject to funding approval and can be modified or terminated with no warning upon the determination of a legislative or administrative body. The loss or failure to obtain certain contracts or the loss of a major government customer could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Some Systems Are Complex in Design and May Contain Defects that Are Not Detected Until Deployed Which Could Increase Our Costs and Reduce Our Revenues

Some systems that utilize our products are inherently complex in design and require ongoing maintenance. As a result of the technical complexity of our products, changes in our or our suppliers’ manufacturing processes or in the use of defective or contaminated materials by us or our suppliers could result in a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve acceptable manufacturing yields and product reliability. To the extent that we do not achieve acceptable yields or product reliability, our business, results of operation financial condition or customer relationships could be materially adversely affected.

Our customers may discover defects in our products after the products have been fully deployed and operated under peak stress conditions. In addition, some of our products are combined with products from other vendors, which may contain defects. Should problems occur, it may be difficult to identify the source of the problem. If we are unable to fix defects or other problems, we could experience, among other things: loss of customers; increased costs of product returns and warranty expenses; damage to our brand reputation; failure to attract new customers or achieve market acceptance; diversion of development and engineering resources; or legal action by our customers. The occurrence of any one or more of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We May Encounter Substantial Competition

We may encounter substantial competition from other companies in the same market, including established companies with significant resources. Some of our competitors may have financial, technical, marketing or other capabilities more extensive than ours and may be able to respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and other competitive pressures. We may not be able to compete successfully against our present or future competitors, and competition may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The Market Price of Our Common Stock Can Be Highly Volatile as the Stock Market in General Can Be Highly Volatile

Factors that could cause fluctuation in the stock price may include, among other things, general economic and market conditions; actual or anticipated variations in operating results; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; our inability to meet or exceed securities analysts’ estimates or expectations; conditions or trends in the industries in which our products are purchased; announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, divestitures, joint ventures or other strategic initiatives; capital commitments; additions or departures of key personnel; and sales of common stock.

Many of these factors are beyond our control. These factors may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, regardless of our operating performance.

Our Success Depends on Our Ability to Retain Key Personnel

We are highly dependent upon the experience and continuing services of certain scientists, engineers, production and management personnel. Competition for the services of these personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain or attract the personnel necessary for our success. The loss of the services of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

A Significant Portion of Our Business is Dependent on Other Cyclical Industries

Our business is significantly dependent on the demand for products produced by end-users of industrial lasers. Many of these end-users are in industries that historically have experienced a highly cyclical demand for

their products. As a result, demand for our products is subject to cyclical fluctuations. This cyclical demand could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our Success Depends on New Products and Processes

In order to meet our strategic objectives, we must continue to develop, manufacture and market new products, develop new processes and improve existing processes. As a result, we expect to continue to make significant investments in research and development and to continue to consider from time to time the strategic acquisition of businesses, products or technologies complementary to our business. Our success in developing, introducing and selling new and enhanced products depends upon a variety of factors including product selection, timely and efficient completion of product design and development, timely and efficient implementation of manufacturing and assembly processes, effective sales and marketing and product performance in the field. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop and introduce new products or enhancements to our existing products and processes in a manner which satisfies customer needs or achieves market acceptance. The failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow our business.

Keeping Pace with Key Industry Developments is Essential

We are engaged in industries which will be affected by future developments. The introduction of products or processes utilizing new developments could render existing products or processes obsolete or unmarketable. Our continued success will depend upon our ability to develop and introduce on a timely and cost-effective basis new products, processes and applications that keep pace with developments and address increasingly sophisticated customer requirements. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying, developing and marketing new products, applications and processes and that we will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction and marketing of product or process enhancements or new products, applications or processes, or that our products, applications or processes will adequately meet the requirements of the marketplace and achieve market acceptance. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected if we were to incur delays in developing new products, applications or processes or if we do not gain market acceptance for the same.

Changes in Tax Rates, Tax Liabilities or Tax Accounting Rules Could Affect Future Results

As a global company, we are subject to taxation in the United States and various other countries and jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required to determine worldwide tax liabilities. Our future tax rates could be affected by changes in the composition of earnings in countries with differing tax rates or changes in tax laws. Changes in tax laws or tax rulings may have a significantly adverse impact on our effective tax rate. For example, proposals for fundamental U.S. international tax reform, such as the recent proposal by President Obama’s administration, if enacted, could have a significant adverse impact on our effective tax rate. In addition, we are subject to regular examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of favorable or unfavorable outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, there can be no assurance that any final determination will not be materially different than the treatment reflected in our historical income tax provision and accruals, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operation or financial condition.

Declines in the Operating Performance of one of Our Business Segments Could Result in an Impairment of the Segment’s Goodwill

As of June 30, 2009 we had goodwill of approximately $26.1 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We test our goodwill on an annual basis or when an indication of possible impairment exists in order to determine whether the carrying value of our assets is still supported by the fair value of the underlying business. To the extent that it is not, we are required to record an impairment charge to reduce the asset to fair value. A

decline in the operating performance of any of our business segments could result in a goodwill impairment charge which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws May Limit the Price that Investors May be Willing to Pay in the Future for Shares of Our Common Stock

Our articles of incorporation and by-laws contain provisions which could make us a less attractive target for a hostile takeover or make more difficult or discourage a merger proposal, a tender offer or a proxy contest. The provisions include: classification of the board of directors into three classes; a procedure which requires shareholders or the board of directors to nominate directors in advance of a meeting to elect such directors; the ability of the board of directors to issue additional shares of Common Stock or preferred stock without shareholder approval; and certain provisions requiring supermajority approval (at least two-thirds of the votes cast by all shareholders entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class). In addition, the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law contains provisions which may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control. All of these provisions may limit the price that investors may be willing to pay for shares of our Common Stock.

We Are Subject to Stringent Environmental Regulation

We use or generate certain hazardous substances in our research and manufacturing facilities. We believe that our handling of such substances is in material compliance with applicable local, state and federal environmental, safety and health regulations at each operating location. We invest substantially in proper protective equipment, process controls and specialized training to minimize risks to employees, surrounding communities and the environment resulting from the presence and handling of such hazardous substances. We regularly conduct employee physical examinations and workplace monitoring regarding such substances. When exposure problems or potential exposure problems have been uncovered, corrective actions have been implemented and re-occurrence has been minimal or non-existent. We do not carry environmental impairment insurance.

Relative to the generation and use of the hazardous substance Hydrogen Selenide, we have in place an emergency response plan. Special attention has been given to all procedures pertaining to this gaseous material to minimize the chances of its accidental release into the atmosphere.

With respect to the manufacturing, use, storage and disposal of the low-level radioactive material Thorium Fluoride, our facilities and procedures have been inspected and licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Thorium-bearing by-products are collected and shipped as solid waste to a government-approved low-level radioactive waste disposal site in Clive, Utah.

The generation, use, collection, storage and disposal of all other hazardous by-products, such as suspended solids containing heavy metals or airborne particulates, are believed by us to be in material compliance with regulations. We believe that all of the permits and licenses required for operation of our business are in place.

Although we do not know of any material environmental, safety or health problems in our properties or processes, there can be no assurance that problems will not develop in the future which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Natural Disasters or Other Global or Regional Catastrophic Events Could Disrupt Our Operations and Adversely Affect Results

Despite our concerted effort to minimize risk to our production capabilities and corporate information systems and to reduce the effect of unforeseen interruptions to us through business continuity planning, we still may be exposed to interruptions due to catastrophe, natural disaster, pandemic, terrorism or acts of war, which

are beyond our control. Disruptions to our facilities or systems, or to those of our key suppliers, could also interrupt operational processes and adversely impact our ability to manufacture our products and provide services and support to our customers. As a result, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements where the FASB previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attributes.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 157 on July 1, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an Amendment of SFAS No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to measure eligible financial assets, financial liabilities and firm commitments at fair value, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, that are otherwise not permitted to be accounted for at fair value under other accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 on July 1, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”), which amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest (minority interest) in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Upon its adoption, effective as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year 2010, noncontrolling interests will be classified as equity in the Company’s financial statements and income and comprehensive income attributed to the noncontrolling interest will be included in the Company’s income and comprehensive income. The provisions of SFAS No. 160 must be applied retrospectively upon adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 160.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). SFAS No. 141(R) established principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The provisions of SFAS No. 141(R) are effective for the Company’s business combinations occurring on or after July 1, 2009.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”), which required enhanced disclosures on the effect of derivatives on a company’s financial statements. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 did not have a material effect on the Company’s disclosures.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS No. 165”). SFAS No. 165 establishes general standards of accounting and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS No. 165 requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS No. 168”). The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of SFAS No. 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company will comply with the requirements of the Statement beginning in the first fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2009.

ITEM 7.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are also identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” or similar expressions. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including risk factors described in the Risk Factors set forth in this Item 1A, which are incorporated herein by reference.

OVERVIEW

The Company generates revenues, earnings and cash flows from developing, manufacturing and marketing high technology materials and derivative products for precision use in industrial, medical, military and aerospace applications. We also generate revenue, earnings and cash flows from external customers and government funded research and development contracts relating to the development and manufacture of new technologies, materials and products.

Our customer base includes OEMs, laser end users, system integrators of high-power lasers, manufacturers of equipment and devices for the industrial, military and medical markets, and U.S. government prime contractors, various U.S. government agencies and thermo-electric integrators.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations requires the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note A of the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and accounting methods used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management believes the Company’s critical accounting estimates are those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, warranty reserves, inventory valuation, valuation of long-lived assets including acquired intangibles and goodwill, accrual of bonus and profit sharing estimates, accrual of income tax liability estimates, accounting for share-based compensation and self-insurance for workers’ compensation. Management believes these estimates to be critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has reviewed the foregoing disclosure. In addition, there are other items within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not deemed critical as defined above. Changes in estimates used in these and other items could have a material impact on the financial statements.

The Company recognizes revenues when the criteria of SAB 104 (as defined below) are met. Revenues for product shipments are realizable when we have persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement, the product has been shipped or delivered, the sale price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss passes from the Company to its customer at the time of shipment in most cases with the

exception of certain customers. For these customers, which represent less than 5% of our consolidated revenues, title does not pass and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the product at its physical location.

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts and warranty reserves based on historical experience and believe the collection of revenues, net of these reserves, is reasonably assured. Our allowance for doubtful accounts and warranty reserve balances at June 30, 2009 was approximately $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Our reserve estimates have historically been proven to be materially correct based upon actual charges incurred.

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistently applied across the Company’s segments, product lines and geographical locations. Further, we do not have post shipment obligations such as training or installation, customer acceptance provisions, credits and discounts, rebates and price protection or other similar privileges. Our distributors and agents are not granted price protection. Our distributors and agents, who comprise less than 10% of consolidated revenue, have no additional product return rights beyond the right to return defective products that are covered by our warranty policy. We believe our revenue recognition practices are consistent with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin: No. 104 – Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (“SAB No. 104”) and that we have adequately considered the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48 “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists” (“SFAS No. 48”).

Revenues generated from transactions other than product shipments are contract related and have historically accounted for approximately 5% or less of the Company’s consolidated revenues. For this portion of revenues, the Company follows the guidelines of Statement of Position 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” for these contracts, which are related to research and development.

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and believes the collection of revenues, net of these reserves, is reasonably assured. The allowance for doubtful accounts is an estimate for potential non-collection of accounts receivable based on historical experience. The Company has not experienced a non-collection of accounts receivable materially affecting its financial position or results of operations as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate causing an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional provisions for bad debts may be required in future periods.

The Company records a warranty reserve as a charge against earnings based on a historical percentage of revenues utilizing actual returns over a period that approximates historical warranty experience. If actual returns in the future are not consistent with the historical data used to calculate these estimates, additional warranty reserves could be required.

The Company records a slow moving inventory reserve as a charge against earnings for all products on hand for more than twelve months to eighteen months depending on the products that have not been sold to customers or cannot be further manufactured for sale to alternative customers. An additional reserve is recorded for product on hand that is in excess of product sold to customers over the same periods noted above. If actual market conditions are less favorable than projected, additional inventory reserves may be required.

The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis for impairment or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The determination of the estimated useful lives of other intangible assets and whether goodwill or indefinite-lived intangibles are impaired involves judgments based upon long-term projections of future performance. Estimates of fair value are based on our projection of revenues, operating costs and cash flows of each reporting unit considering historical and anticipated results, general economic and market conditions. The fair values of the reporting units are determined using a discounted cash flow analysis

based on historical and projected financial information. The carrying value of goodwill at June 30, 2009 and 2008 was $26.1 million and $26.5 million, respectively. The annual goodwill impairment analysis considers the financial projections of the reporting unit based on the most recently completed budgeting and long-term strategic planning processes and also considers the current financial performance compared to the prior projections of the reporting unit. Changes in our financial performance, judgments and projections could result in an impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets.

As a result of the purchase price allocations from our prior acquisitions and due to our decentralized structure, our goodwill is included in multiple reporting units. Due to the cyclical nature of our business, and the other factors described under “Risk Factors” herein, the profitability of our individual reporting units may periodically suffer from downturns in customer demand, operational challenges and other factors. These factors may have a relatively more pronounced impact on the individual reporting units as compared to the Company as a whole, and might adversely affect the fair value of the reporting units. If material adverse conditions occur that impact one or more of our reporting units, our determination of future fair value may not support the carrying amount of one or more of our reporting units, and the related goodwill would need to be written down.

The Company records certain bonus and profit sharing estimates as a charge against earnings. These estimates are adjusted to actual based on final results of operations achieved during the fiscal year. Certain partial bonus amounts are paid quarterly based on interim Company performance, and the remainder is paid after fiscal year end and final determination of the applicable percentage. Other bonuses are paid annually.

The Company prepares and files tax returns based on its interpretation of tax laws and regulations and records estimates based on these judgments and interpretations. In the normal course of business, the Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities, which may result in future tax, interest, and penalty assessments by these authorities. Inherent uncertainties exist in estimates of many tax positions due to changes in tax law resulting from legislation, regulation and/or as concluded through the various jurisdictions’ tax court systems. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted for changes in facts and circumstances. For example, adjustments could result from significant amendments to existing tax law and the issuance of regulations or interpretations by the taxing authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination, or resolution of an examination. The Company believes that its estimates for uncertain tax positions are appropriate and sufficient to pay assessments that may result from examinations of its tax returns. The Company recognizes both accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

The Company has recorded valuation allowances against certain of its deferred tax assets, primarily those that have been generated from net operating losses in certain taxing jurisdictions. In evaluating whether the Company would more likely than not recover these deferred tax assets, it has not assumed any future taxable income or tax planning strategies in the jurisdictions associated with these carry-forwards where history does not support such an assumption. Implementation of tax planning strategies to recover these deferred tax assets or future income generation in these jurisdictions could lead to the reversal of these valuation allowances and a reduction of income tax expense.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment,” effective July 1, 2005 (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation in earnings. The Company elected the modified retrospective transition method for adopting SFAS No.123(R). Under this method, all prior period financial statements were restated effective July 1, 2005 to recognize share-based compensation cost in the amounts previously reported in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company recognizes the share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period. Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company followed

Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for its share-based compensation.

The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to workers’ compensation for its U.S. employees. Additionally, third-party insurance is obtained to limit our exposure to these claims in excess of $0.4 million per occurrence and $1.0 million in the aggregate per policy year. When estimating its self-insurance liability, the Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims experience, demographic and severity factors and valuations provided by independent third party consultants. Periodically, management reviews its assumptions and the valuations to determine the adequacy of its self-insurance liability.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Fiscal year 2009 was a challenging year for the Company. The majority of the markets we serve, including the worldwide industrial material processing markets, were severely impacted by the global economic downturn. The Company reacted to this challenge by initiating plans to reduce its operating cost structure and capital spending programs and repositioning its working capital requirements to be in a position to react when economic recovery occurs.

Fiscal 2009 Compared to Fiscal 2008

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

Overview (millions except per share data)


	Year Ended June 30,				% Decrease
	2009		2008		% Decrease

Bookings	$	261.1	$	345.3	(24	)%
Revenues		292.2		316.2	(8	)%
Net earnings		38.9		65.7	(41	)%
Diluted earnings per share		1.29		2.16	(40	)%

BOOKINGS Bookings from continuing operations decreased 24% to $261.1 million in fiscal year 2009 compared to $345.3 million in fiscal year 2008. The majority of the Company’s business segments realized lower bookings in fiscal year 2009 compared to fiscal year 2008. The Company’s business segments were negatively impacted by the overall challenging macro-economic environment that began during the Company’s fiscal year 2009. The major factors that contributed to this overall decline in bookings include:

•

The Infrared Optics segment recorded a decrease in bookings of $20.5 million or 26% in the current year compared to last fiscal year due to a downturn in the industrial markets brought on by the worldwide economic recession.

•

The Near-Infrared Optics segment, as previously announced, has continued to ramp down its UV Filter product line as a result of reduced demand from its military customer. UV Filter bookings declined $21.6 million or 76% from its order rate for this product line in fiscal year 2008.

•

PRM in the Company’s Military & Materials segment recognized a decrease in bookings of $4.0 million or 64% due to market price volatility for its two main raw materials, Selenium and Tellurium which impacted the product requirements.

Somewhat buffering the overall decrease in the Company’s bookings during fiscal year 2009 was the increase in military and defense orders at the majority of the Company’s segments as its military product offerings are being introduced into more key military programs.

The Company’s order backlog at June 30, 2009 of $103 million decreased 23% during the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year as a result of the general economic slowdown, whereby the Company experienced significant slowdown in its order run rate.

REVENUES Revenues from continuing operations decreased 8% to $292.2 million in fiscal year 2009 compared to $316.2 million in fiscal year 2008. The primary reasons for the revenue decrease was a lower volume of shipments from the Infrared Optics segment resulting from a lowering demand from the segments industrial based customers as a result of the deterioration of the worldwide economy. In addition, the Company’s Near-Infrared Optic’s UV Filter product line recognized approximately $10 million less revenue in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year as this product line continues to ramp down. The overall decrease in revenues was partially offset by increased revenue volumes at the Company’s Exotic Electro-Optics (“EEO”) and Marlow operations relating to increased shipment volume of military and defense related product offerings.

NET EARNINGS Net earnings from continuing operations decreased 41% in fiscal year 2009 to $38.9 million ($1.29 per share-diluted) from $65.7 million ($2.16 per share-diluted) in fiscal year 2008. During fiscal year 2008 the Company sold its equity investment in 5NPlus, Inc. for $30.2 million in cash, on which it recorded an after-tax gain of $15.9 million ($0.52 per share-diluted). In addition to the gain on 5NPlus, Inc. in fiscal year 2008, the decrease in earnings was primarily due to less incremental margin recognized on the lower volume of revenues. The Company also incurred $1.0 million more in share-based compensation expense in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year. Offsetting the net earnings in fiscal year 2009 was the lower effective income tax rate resulting from the Company recording a favorable income tax benefit of approximately $4.7 million in accordance with FIN 48 relating to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service examination of certain of the Company’s Federal income tax returns.

OUTLOOK The Company is anticipating that fiscal year 2010 will be another challenging year. We anticipate the world’s economies will continue to be sluggish with only modest growth in the industrial markets serviced by our operating segments. The Company is planning for a further reduction in demand for its UV Filter product line, which is a component of the Near-Infrared Optics segment, with revenues expected to decrease in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 by approximately $10 million from the revenues for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.

The Company’s Infrared Optics segment includes the combined operations of II-VI Infrared and HIGHYAG. The results of operations include HIGHYAG for only six months of fiscal year 2008, as this acquisition was completed in January 2008.

Bookings for fiscal year 2009 for Infrared Optics decreased 26% to $119.3 million from $161.7 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in bookings for fiscal year 2009 compared to the same period last fiscal year was due to the weakness in the worldwide industrial markets as a result of the worldwide economic recession. Based on data received from our customers we believe that laser system utilization within these markets has decreased approximately 50% from the prior year, which in turn has lowered demand for the segment’s replacement optics. In addition, bookings from high power laser OEMs in Japan and Europe have decreased significantly as these customers continue to consume their existing inventory and face lower product demand due to decreased laser utilization rates and less new laser manufacturing. The segment anticipates that the reduced bookings rate will continue for the near-term as OEMs and aftermarket customers continue their cautious buying habits as a result of the worldwide economic environment. The Company is anticipating an improvement in its business environment to occur sometime in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 due to signs of growth from China and the positive impact that the world government’s economic stimulus plans should have on the industrial markets. Offsetting somewhat the significant decrease in bookings in the current year has been an increase in bookings from the segment’s military and ZnSe and ZnS materials customers, which has experienced a 40% increase in orders compared to the prior fiscal year.

Revenues for fiscal year 2009 for Infrared Optics decreased 14% to $130.9 million from $151.9 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in revenues for the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year was due to lower shipment volume to OEMs and aftermarket customers worldwide. This lower shipment volume began during the Company’s current second fiscal quarter and is the direct result of the general deterioration of the industrial markets brought on by the global macroeconomic environment.

Segment earnings for fiscal year 2009 for Infrared Optics decreased 23% to $28.0 million from $36.2 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in segment earnings in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year was primarily due to the reduction of margin realized on the segment’s lower shipment volume. In addition, the segment has recorded approximately $1.0 million more of share-based compensation expense during the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year. The segment is continuing to reduce its operating cost structure to align it with lower product demands.

Bookings	$	37.8	$	65.9	(43	)%
Revenues		45.6		58.7	(22	)%
Segment earnings		7.1		11.9	(40	)%

Bookings for fiscal year 2009 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 43% to $37.8 million from $65.9 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in bookings for fiscal 2009 compared to the same period last fiscal year was due primarily to the anticipated reduction in the order rates of the segment’s UV Filter product line, which experienced a $21.6 million reduction in orders compared to the prior fiscal year. In addition to the decrease for the UV Filter product line, the segment also experienced a decrease in orders from its industrial and medical customers in the current year as demand for these product lines was negatively impacted by the current economic downturn. Somewhat offsetting the overall bookings decline during the current year was an increase in military orders. The segment is anticipating seeing its non-UV Filter military orders continue to expand in fiscal year 2010 while orders for the UV Filter product line are expected to decrease as this program continues to ramp down.

Revenues for fiscal year 2009 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 22% to $45.6 million compared to $58.7 million in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in revenues for fiscal 2009 compared to the same period last

fiscal year was primarily due to the anticipated reduction in the shipment rates of the UV Filter product line. The revenue decrease was somewhat offset by increased non-UV Filter military product shipments during the current fiscal year. The segment is anticipating that its non-UV military business will remain strong in fiscal year 2010, which will help offset a sluggish demand from the industrial and medical customer base as a result of the current macro-economic environment.

Segment earnings for fiscal year 2009 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 40% to $7.1 million from $11.9 million in fiscal year 2008. The deterioration in segment earnings in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year was the result of a reduction in margin realized on less revenues from its UV Filter, industrial and medical product lines. In addition, segment earnings were also negatively impacted by a $0.8 million write-off of certain equipment of its UV Filter product line due to reduction in certain product demands.

Military & Materials (millions)


	Year Ended June 30,				% Increase (Decrease)
	2009		2008		% Increase (Decrease)

Bookings	$	50.0	$	61.9	(19	)%
Revenues		57.0		50.5	13	%
Segment earnings		6.5		7.1	(8	)%

The Company’s Military & Materials segment includes the combined operations of EEO and PRM.

Bookings for fiscal year 2009 for Military & Materials decreased 19% to $50.0 million from $61.9 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in bookings for fiscal 2009 compared to the same period last fiscal year was the result of lower booking levels at the segment’s PRM operation. During the current fiscal year, the market price of selenium and tellurium, two significant raw materials the Company refines and sells, experienced lower volatility as a result of lower industrial demand for these two materials which are used in the manufacture of steel, glass and automobiles. The lower booking level at PRM was partially offset by increased military bookings at EEO in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year as a result of increased military orders for the Company’s sapphire and core military product lines. During the current fiscal year, EEO’s bookings increased 27% compared to the prior year, driven by increased orders of Advanced Targeting Pod (“ATP”) Sniper Shrouds and sapphire windows for the Joint Strike Fighter (“JSF”) Electro Optical Targeting System program.

Revenues for fiscal year 2009 for Military & Materials increased 13% to $57.0 million compared to $50.5 million in fiscal year 2008. The increase in revenues in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year was primarily due to increased military shipments of EEO’s sapphire and core military product lines.

Segment earnings for fiscal year 2009 for Military & Materials decreased 8% to $6.5 million from $7.1 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in segment earnings in the current fiscal year despite an increase in revenues was primarily due to a decline in the current year of market pricing of selenium and tellurium resulting in a lower of cost or market write-down of inventories of approximately $1.5 million. The decrease in segment earnings was somewhat offset by earnings improvements at EEO resulting from incremental margin realized on the increased sales volume in the current fiscal year as well as continued improved operational performance.

Compound Semiconductor Group (millions)

Segment earnings		6.2		6.5	(5	)%

The Compound Semiconductor Group includes the combined operations of Marlow, the Wide Bandgap Group (“WBG”) and the Worldwide Materials Group (“WMG”).

Bookings for fiscal year 2009 from the Compound Semiconductor Group decreased 3% to $54.1 million from $55.8 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in bookings in the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily due to a one-time large booking from an industrial customer of Marlow which was received during the prior fiscal year. The decrease in bookings was partially offset by a receipt of a $5.2 million U.S. Department of Defense research and development contract booking during fiscal year 2009 at WBG focusing on SiC material growth.

Revenues for fiscal year 2009 from the Compound Semiconductor Group increased 7% to $58.7 million compared to $55.1 million in fiscal year 2008. The increase in revenues in the current fiscal year compared to last fiscal year was due to increased shipment volume at Marlow to its customers in the defense and medical industries.

Segment earnings for fiscal year 2009 for the Compound Semiconductor Group decreased 5% to $6.2 million from $6.5 million in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in segment earnings during the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year was due primarily to reduced external contract revenue in the current year at WBG. In addition, WMG, which assists the Company’s research and development efforts, increased its developmental efforts on certain material-based research projects, thereby incurring more expense than in the prior year.

Costs and Expenses

Manufacturing gross margin, which is defined as net domestic and international revenue less cost of goods sold, for fiscal year 2009 was $113.1 million or 40% of revenues compared to $127.4 million or 42% of revenues in fiscal year 2008. The decrease in manufacturing gross margin for fiscal 2009 compared to the same period last year was due to several factors including lower margin on reduced revenues, primarily in the Infrared Optics and Near-Infrared Optics business segments which realized 14% and 22% less revenue, respectively, during the current fiscal year compared to last fiscal year. PRM experienced lower manufacturing gross margin due to write-downs of their selenium and tellurium raw material inventory to lower of cost or market based upon the general decline in the market price of these commodities. In addition, Near-Infrared Optics wrote-off approximately $0.8 million of certain equipment of its UV Filter product line due to continued reduction in product demand.

Contract research and development gross margin, which is calculated as contract research and development revenues less contract research and development expense, for fiscal year 2009 was $3.0 million or 28% of revenues compared to a contract gross margin of $2.8 million or 23% of revenues for fiscal year 2008. The improvement in contact gross margin during the current fiscal year compared to the same period last year was due to several factors including the mix of contracts to higher margin contracts as well as favorable contract cost rate adjustments initiated during the second half of fiscal year 2009. The contract research and development revenues and costs are a result of research and development efforts in the Near-Infrared Optics, Military & Materials and the Compound Semiconductor Group segments and is a blend of cost plus fixed fee, cost reimbursement and fixed fee contract activities.

Company-funded internal research and development expenses for fiscal year 2009 were $10.2 million or 3% of total revenues compared to $7.7 million or 2% of total revenues for fiscal year 2008. The increase in internal research and development expense during fiscal year 2009 compared to the same period last fiscal year was due to increased internal research and development activities at the Company’s Infrared Optics, Military & Materials and Compound Semiconductor Group segments. These operations have been focusing their internal development on improving material yields and quality process controls as well as new product and technology development.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year 2009 were $58.1 million or 20% of revenues compared to $60.8 million or 19% of revenues for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in the dollar amount of selling general and administration expense for the current fiscal year compared to the same period last fiscal year was due to certain costs reductions initiated by the Company to align its cost structure with the decreased revenue levels brought on by the current economic environment.

Interest expense for fiscal year 2009 was $0.2 million and was comparable to fiscal year 2008. The low level of interest expense is the result of the Company having relatively low levels of debt outstanding for the fiscal years 2009 and 2008.

Other expense for fiscal 2009 was $1.4 million compared to other income of $2.7 million for fiscal year 2008. Other expense for fiscal 2009 consisted of foreign currency losses of $2.7 million due to the unfavorable movement of the U.S. dollar relative to the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies including the Euro, Japanese Yen and the British Pound. The foreign currency losses during the current fiscal year was partially offset against equity earnings from the Company minority interest in Fuxin Electronic Technology of $1.0 million and interest income of $0.7 million on excess cash reserves. Other income for the fiscal year 2008 primarily consisted of foreign currency gains realized of $1.1 million as well as interest income of $1.4 million from excess cash reserves.

During the fiscal year 2008, the Company sold its equity investment in 5NPlus for $30.2 million in cash on which it recorded a pre-tax gain of $26.5 million.

The Company’s effective income tax rate for fiscal year 2009 was 16.0% compared to an effective income tax rate of 27.5% for fiscal year 2008. The lower income tax rate in the current fiscal year is the result of the Company recording a favorable income tax benefit of approximately $4.7 million in accordance with FIN 48 relating to the reversal of unrecognized tax benefits resulting from the completion of the Internal Revenue Service’s examination of certain of the Company’s federal income tax returns. In addition, the Company reduced income tax expense by reversing $1.1 million of a deferred income tax valuation allowance related to foreign tax credit carry forwards as a result of an identified tax planning strategy. These benefits were partially offset by increased income tax expense of $0.9 million at certain of the Company’s foreign locations. The higher effective income tax rate for the prior year was primarily due to the U.S. income taxes on the gain from the sale of the equity investment.

Discontinued Operation

In June 2009, the Company sold its x-ray and gamma-ray radiation business, eV PRODUCTS, Inc. for approximately $5.2 million in cash. The Company recognized a $2.0 million loss on the sale net of a $1.2 million income tax benefit. Included in the loss are transaction costs of approximately $1.2 million. Results for this business for the year ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were revenues of $8.8 million and $7.2 million, respectively, and loss before income taxes of $3.3 million including a pre-tax loss on disposal of $3.2 million for June 30, 2009 compared to a loss before income taxes of $2.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2008.

SEASONALITY

Due to our customers’ buying patterns, particularly in Europe, revenues for our first fiscal quarter ending in September 2009 could be below those in the preceding quarter.

Costs and Expenses

Manufacturing gross margin, which is defined as net domestic and international revenues less cost of goods sold, for fiscal 2008 was $127.4 million or 42% of revenues compared to $105.3 million or 43% of revenues in fiscal 2007. The decrease in manufacturing gross margins for fiscal 2008 compared to fiscal 2007 was primarily attributed to the impact of the Company’s PRM and HIGHYAG acquisitions, which have lower gross margins in comparison to the Company’s historical margins. In addition, the margin was also negatively impacted by yield and capacity challenges in the Company’s Infrared Optics segment.

Contract research and development gross margin, which is calculated as contract research and development revenues less contract research and development expenses, for fiscal 2008 was $2.8 million or 23% of revenues compared to a gross margin of $2.9 million or 26% of revenues for fiscal 2007. Contract revenues

increased approximately $1.1 million in fiscal 2008 compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 due to increased contract activity in the Military & Materials and Compound Semiconductor segments. Contract gross margin was negatively impacted in fiscal 2008 primarily due to change in the mix of contracts compared to fiscal 2007. The contract research and development revenues and costs are a result of development efforts in the Near-Infrared Optics, Military & Materials and Compound Semiconductor, segments and is a blend of cost plus fixed fee, cost reimbursement and fixed fee contract activities.

Company-funded internal research and development expenses for fiscal 2008 were $7.7 million or 2% of total revenues compared to $5.8 million or 2% of total revenues, for fiscal 2007. The dollar increase in internal research and development expense during fiscal 2008 compared to fiscal 2007 was due to increased internal research and development in the Company’s Compound Semiconductor Group and the Military & Materials segment. The Compound Semiconductor Group segment has focused their internal research and development in the areas of material growth, yield improvements and quality control processes. The Military & Materials segment focused on increased military research and development activities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2008 were $60.8 million or 19% of total revenues compared to $53.4 million or 21% of total revenues for fiscal 2007. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues in fiscal 2008 compared to fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the inclusion of PRM’s financial results for fiscal 2008. The inclusion of PRM lowered this metric due to the historical lower overhead requirements of this operation compared to the Company’s historical selling, general and administrative expense percentage. The increase in selling, general and administrative costs compared to the same period in fiscal 2007 was primarily driven by an increase in the Company’s employment levels and other administrative costs to support the increased sales volume.

Interest expense for fiscal 2008 was $0.2 million compared to $1.0 million for fiscal 2007. The decrease in interest expense for fiscal 2008 as compared to fiscal 2007 was due to the reduction in the Company’s outstanding debt levels between these two periods.

Other income for fiscal 2008 was approximately $2.7 million and was consistent with other income in fiscal 2007. Other income for both fiscal years 2008 and 2007 consisted primarily of foreign currency gains from the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Company’s foreign currencies as well as interest income earned on the Company’s cash reserves.

During fiscal year 2008, the Company sold its equity interest in 5NPlus for $30.2 million in cash on which it recorded a pre-tax gain of $26.5 million.

The Company’s effective income tax rate for fiscal 2008 was 27.5% compared to the income tax rate for fiscal 2007 of 24.2%. The higher tax rate for fiscal 2008 compared to fiscal 2007 was primarily due to the income taxes on the gain from the sale of the 5NPlus equity investment. Excluding the income taxes on the gain from the sale of the 5NPlus equity investment, the effective income tax rate for fiscal 2008 was approximately 22%. The decrease in the adjusted effective tax rate in fiscal 2008 compared to fiscal 2007 was primarily due to higher earnings in fiscal 2008 in lower tax foreign jurisdictions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically, our primary source of cash has been provided through operations and long-term borrowings. Other sources of cash include proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and sale of equity investment. Our historical uses of cash have been for capital expenditures, purchases of businesses, payment of principal and interest on outstanding debt obligations and purchases of treasury stock. Supplemental information pertaining to our sources and uses of cash is presented as follows:

Sources (uses) of Cash (millions):


	Year Ended June 30,
	2009			2008

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	48.8		$	45.5
Proceeds from sale of equity investment		–			30.2
Proceeds from exercise of stock options		1.8			3.8
Additions to property, plant and equipment		(15.6	)		(17.9	)
Net payments on debt obligations		(0.5	)		(11.7	)
Purchases of treasury stock		(12.9	)		(5.9	)
Investment in unconsolidated business		(4.9	)		–
Purchases of businesses, net of cash acquired		–			(2.4	)

Cash Provided by Operating Activities:

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $48.8 million and $45.5 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in cash from continuing operations for fiscal year 2009 despite the lower earnings was the result of improvements in the level of working capital, principally related to the collection of our accounts receivable and lower net cash tax payments made during fiscal year 2009.

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $45.5 million and $44.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in cash from continuing operations for fiscal year 2008 was primarily driven by increased earnings in fiscal year 2008 compared to fiscal year 2007 offset by higher working capital requirements including accounts receivable and inventory, as a result of the business operating conditions that existed during fiscal year 2008.

Cash (used in) provided by investing activities:

Cash (used in) provided by investing activities from continuing operations was $(18.3) million and $7.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in cash from investing activities in the current fiscal year compared to the prior year was primarily the result of the Company receiving $30.2 million of proceeds from the sale of an equity investment in fiscal year 2008. During fiscal year 2009, the Company made $15.6 million of capital expenditures compared to $17.9 million in fiscal year 2008. The reduction in capital expenditure in the current fiscal year was a strategic decision to slowdown capital investments due to a slowdown of the Company’s general business activities as a result of the current worldwide economic recession in fiscal year 2009. In addition, during fiscal year 2009, the Company increased its minority investment in Fuxin Electronic Technology in the amount of $4.9 million.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities from continuing operations was $7.1 million and $(27.6) million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in cash from investing activities in fiscal year 2008 was the result of the Company receiving $30.2 million of proceeds from the sales of an equity investment in fiscal year 2008.

Cash used in financing activities:

Cash used in financing activities was $10.3 million and $9.7 million for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. During fiscal years 2009 and 2008, the Company repurchased treasury stock of $12.9 million and $5.9 million, respectively. Net debt payments were $0.5 million and $11.7 million for fiscal years 2009 and 2008, respectively. Cash used in financing activities was offset by proceeds from exercise of stock options and excess tax benefits from share-based compensation expense.

Cash used in financing activities was $9.7 million and $10.7 million for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. During fiscal years 2008 and 2007, the Company repurchased treasury stock of $5.9 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Net debt payments were $11.7 million and $16.0 million for fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively, as the Company continued paying down on its outstanding borrowings from the excess cash generated from operations. Cash used in financing activities was offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and excess tax benefits from share-based compensation expense

The Company’s credit facility is a $60.0 million line of credit which, under certain conditions, may be expanded to $100.0 million. The credit facility has a five-year term through October 2011 and has interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 0.50% to LIBOR plus 1.25%. Additionally, the facility is subject to certain covenants, including those relating to minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. The weighted average interest rate of borrowings was 2.2% and 4.2% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company had $59.3 million available under its line of credit as of June 30, 2009 and 2008.

On October 23, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to 500,000 shares of its Common Stock. The repurchase program called for shares to be purchased in the open market or in private transactions from time to time. Shares purchased by the Company are retained as treasury stock and available for general corporate purposes. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, the Company completed its repurchase program. During this program, the Company purchased 500,000 shares of its Common Stock for $12.9 million.

Our cash position, borrowing capacity and debt obligations are as follows (in millions):


	Year Ended June 30,
	2009		2008

Cash and cash equivalents	$	95.9	$	69.8
Additional borrowing capacity under existing credit facility		59.3		59.3
Total debt obligations		3.7		3.8

The Company believes cash flow from operations, existing cash reserves and available borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund its working capital needs, capital expenditures and internal growth for fiscal 2010. As a result of the current world-wide recession, the Company is anticipating reducing its capital expenditures and other discretionary spending for fiscal year 2010.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements include the Operating Lease Obligations and the Purchase Obligations disclosed in the contractual obligations table below as well as letters of credit as discussed in Note H to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company enters into these off-balance sheet arrangements to acquire goods and services used in its business.

A “purchase obligation” is defined as an agreement to purchase goods or services that is enforceable and legally binding on the Company and that specifies all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. These amounts are primarily comprised of open purchase order commitments to vendors for the purchase of supplies and materials and unpaid purchase prices for the Company’s recent acquisitions of PRM and HIGHYAG.

The gross unrecognized income tax benefits under FIN 48 at June 30, 2009 which are excluded from the above table are $2.8 million. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate how the liability will increase or decrease over time.

ITEM 7A.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISKS

The Company is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In the normal course of business, the Company uses a variety of techniques and derivative financial instruments as part of its overall risk management strategy primarily focused on its exposure to the Japanese Yen. No significant changes have occurred in the techniques and instruments used other than those described below.

In addition, the Company has transactions denominated in Euros and Pounds Sterling. As a result of the Company’s hedging activities discussed below, changes in the foreign currency exchange rates of these currencies did not have a material impact on the results of operations for fiscal 2009.

Foreign Exchange Risks

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts with its financial institutions. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge ordinary business risks regarding foreign currencies on product sales. Foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency rates. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts that permit it to sell specified amounts of foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. The forward contracts are denominated in the same foreign currencies in which export sales are denominated. These contracts provide the Company with an economic hedge in which settlement

will occur in future periods and which otherwise would expose the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company monitors its positions and the credit ratings of the parties to these contracts. While the Company may be exposed to potential losses due to risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to these financial instruments, it does not anticipate such losses.

The Company entered into a low interest rate, 400 million Yen loan with PNC Bank in June 2007 in an effort to minimize the foreign currency exposure in Japan. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, the Company repaid 50 million Yen under this loan. A change in the interest rate of 1% for this Yen loan would have had an immaterial impact to interest expense and a 10% change in the Yen to U.S. dollar exchange rate would have changed revenues in the range from a decrease of approximately $1.5 million to an increase of approximately $2.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2009.

For II-VI Singapore Pte., Ltd. and its subsidiaries, II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l., and Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals, Inc., the functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Gains and losses on the remeasurement of the local currency financial statements are included in net earnings. Foreign currency gains (losses) were $0.5 million, $1.0 million and ($0.1) million for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

For all other foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of those operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the period-end exchange rate while income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Translation adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity.

Interest Rate Risks

As of June 30, 2009, the Company’s total borrowings of $3.7 million were from a loan denominated in Japanese Yen. As such, the Company is exposed to changes in interest rates. A change in the interest rate of 1% would not have a material impact for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management’s Responsibility for Preparation of the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements included in the Annual Report. The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include amounts that are based on the best estimates and judgments of management. The other financial information contained in this annual report is consistent with the financial statements.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance concerning the reliability of the financial data used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, as well as reasonable assurance with respect to safeguarding the Company’s assets from unauthorized use or disposition.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement presentation and other results of such systems.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009. In making this evaluation, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Management’s evaluation included reviewing the documentation of its controls, evaluating the design effectiveness of controls and testing their operating effectiveness. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that as of June 30, 2009, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were effective and provide reasonable assurance that the accompanying financial statements do not contain any material misstatement.

Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued their report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009. Their report is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of II-VI Incorporated:

We have audited II-VI Incorporated’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). II-VI Incorporated’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, II-VI Incorporated maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of II-VI Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders’ equity, comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2009 of II-VI Incorporated and our report dated August 28, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF BUSINESS II-VI Incorporated and subsidiaries (the “Company”), a worldwide leader in crystal growth technology, is a vertically-integrated manufacturing company that creates and markets products for a diversified customer base including industrial manufacturing, military and aerospace, high-power electronics, telecommunications and thermo-electronics applications. The Company markets its products through its direct sales force and through distributors and agents.

The Company uses certain uncommon materials and compounds to manufacture its products. Some of these materials are available from only one proven outside source. The continued high quality of these materials is critical to the stability of the Company’s manufacturing yields. The Company has not experienced significant production delays due to a shortage of materials. However, the Company does occasionally experience problems associated with vendor-supplied materials not meeting specifications for quality or purity. A significant failure of the Company’s suppliers to deliver sufficient quantities of necessary high-quality materials on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

In June 2009, the Company sold its x-ray and gamma-ray radiation business, eV PRODUCTS, Inc. eV PRODUCTS was previously reported in the Compound Semiconductor Group business segment. Financial and operational data included herein for all periods presented reflect the presentation of eV PRODUCTS as a discontinued operation.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION For II-VI Singapore Pte., Ltd. and its subsidiaries, II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l. and Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals, Inc., the functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Gains and losses on the remeasurement of the local currency financial statements are included in net earnings. Foreign currency gains (losses) were $0.5 million, $1.0 million and ($0.1) million for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

For all other foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of those operations are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates while income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Translation adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The majority of cash and cash equivalents is invested in investment grade money market type instruments. We place our cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions and to date we have not experienced credit losses in these instruments. Cash of foreign subsidiaries is on deposit at banks in Singapore, China, Germany, Japan, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Vietnam, the Philippines and Italy.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES Marketable securities consisted of certificates of deposits with original maturity dates of six months. The deposits were denominated in U.S. dollars and were on deposit with a commercial bank in Vietnam and accrued interest ranging from 4.0% to 4.2% per annum.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND WARRANTY RESERVE The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience.

The Company factored a portion of the accounts receivable due to its Japan subsidiary during each of the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. Factoring is done with large banks in Japan. During the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, $7.1 million and $7.8 million respectively, of accounts receivable had been factored. As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, was included in Other accrued liabilities representing the Company’s obligation to the bank for these receivables factored with recourse.

The Company records a warranty reserve as a charge against earnings based on a percentage of revenues utilizing actual returns over a period that approximates historical warranty experience. The following table summarizes the change in the carrying value of the Company’s warranty reserve as of and for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007.


Year Ended June 30,	2009		2008			2007
($000)
Balance – Beginning of Year	$	777	$	926		$	885
Expense (credit) and write-offs, net		84		(149	)		41

Balance – End of Year	$	861	$	777		$	926

INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Inventory costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. The Company records a slow moving inventory reserve as a charge against earnings for all products on hand more than twelve months to eighteen months depending on the products that have not been sold to customers or cannot be further manufactured for sale to alternative customers. An additional reserve is recorded for product on hand that is in excess of product sold to customers over the same periods noted above. Inventories are net of reserves totaling $3.3 million and $2.1 million at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost or fair market value upon acquisition. Major improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred. The Company reviews its property, plant and equipment and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is computed primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives for building, building improvements and land improvements of 10 to 20 years and 2 to 12 years for machinery and equipment.

GOODWILL The excess purchase price over the net assets of businesses acquired is reported as goodwill in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” the Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of the business to the recorded value (including goodwill). The Company uses a discounted cash flow model (“DCF model”) to determine the current fair value of the business. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in the application of the DCF model to forecasted operating cash flows, including markets and market shares, sales volume and pricing, costs to produce, working capital changes and income tax rates. Management considers historical experience and all available information at the time the fair values of the business are estimated. However, actual fair value that could be realized could differ from those used to evaluate the impairment of goodwill.

INVESTMENTS In March 2007, the Company acquired for $3.6 million a 10% non-controlling minority interest in Guangdong Fuxin Electronic Technology (Fuxin) based in Guangdong Province, China. In July 2008, the Company completed an additional investment of 10.2% of the equity interests of Fuxin for approximately $4.9 million. The Company has a total equity investment in Fuxin of 20.2%. This investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting commencing with the period beginning July 1, 2008. Prior to July 1, 2008, this investment was accounted for under the cost method of accounting. During the year ended

June 30, 2009, the Company’s pro-rata share of earnings from this investment was $1.1 million, and is recorded in other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The Company did not record any earnings from this investment during the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.

During the year ended June 30, 2008, the Company sold its entire 36% equity investment in 5N Plus, Inc. for $30.2 million in cash on which it recorded an after-tax gain of $15.9 million. The Company’s pro rata share of the earnings from this investment and the interest received from these agreements were approximately $0.7 million and $0.9 million for the years ended June 30 2008 and 2007, respectively.

INTANGIBLES Intangible assets are carried at cost or fair market value upon acquisition. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three years to twenty years. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but tested annually for impairment in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that indefinite-lived intangible assets might be impaired.

OTHER ASSETS In April 2005, the Company entered into a $2.0 million note purchase agreement with SemiSouth Laboratories, Inc. (“SemiSouth”), a customer and supplier of the Company. Under the terms of the agreement, the note receivable accrues interest at Prime plus 1.00% per annum paid quarterly. The note receivable matures April 4, 2010. The note purchase agreement contains a conversion feature that permits the Company to convert the note receivable into common shares of SemiSouth at certain times upon certain situations through the maturity date.

ACCRUED BONUSES AND PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTION The Company records bonus and profit sharing estimates as a charge against earnings. These estimates are adjusted to actual based on final results of operations achieved during the fiscal year. Certain partial bonus amounts may be paid on an interim basis, and the remainder is paid after the fiscal year end after the final determination of the applicable percentage or amounts. Other bonuses are paid annually.

INCOME TAXES Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB 109” as of July 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the financial statement recognition threshold and measurement attribute of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return in accordance with Statement 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition. Under FIN 48, the Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. FIN 48 only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Under FIN 48, the Company classifies interest and penalties as an element of income tax expense.

REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenues when the criteria of SAB 104 are met. Revenues for product shipments are realizable when we have persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement, the product has been shipped or delivered, the sale price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss passes from the Company to its customer at the time of shipment in most cases with the exception of certain customers. For these customers, which represent less than 5% of our consolidated revenues, title does not pass and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the product at its physical location.

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts and a warranty reserve based on historical experience and believe the collection of revenues, net of these reserves, is reasonably assured. Our allowance for doubtful accounts and warranty reserve balances at June 30, 2009 was approximately $1.0 million and $0.9 million,

respectively. Our reserve estimates have historically been proven to be materially correct based upon actual charges incurred.

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistently applied across the Company’s segments, product lines and geographical locations. Further, we do not have post shipment obligations such as training or installation, customer acceptance provisions, credits and discounts, rebates and price protection, or other similar privileges. Our distributors and agents are not granted price protection. Our distributors and agents, who comprise less than 10% of consolidated revenue, have no additional product return rights beyond the right to return defective products that are covered by our warranty policy. We believe our revenue recognition practices are consistent with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin: No. 104 – Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 104) and that we have adequately considered the requirements of SFAS No. 48 “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists”.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenues. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Total shipping and handling revenue and costs included in revenues and in selling, general and administrative expenses were $0.3 million, $0.6 million and $0.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Internal research and development costs and costs not related to customer and government funded research and development contracts are expensed as incurred.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION The Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), (“SFAS 123(R)”) “Share-Based Payment,” effective July 1, 2005. SFAS 123(R) requires the recognition of the fair value of stock compensation in net earnings. The Company recognizes the share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period. Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company followed Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for its share-based compensation.

Under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), the Company recorded $5.0 million, $4.0 million and $3.4 million in share-based compensation expense in its Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The share-based compensation expense is allocated approximately 25% to cost of goods sold and 75% to selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings based upon the employee classification of the grantee. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of the share-based compensation expense. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the weighted-average fair value of options granted under the stock option plan was $17.71, $13.31 and $14.62, respectively, per option using the following assumptions:


	Year Ended June 30, 2009	Year Ended June 30, 2008	Year Ended June 30, 2007
Risk free interest rate	2.91%	3.79%	5.14%
Expected volatility	41%	39%	56%
Expected life of options	5.84 years	5.86 years	6.89 years
Dividend yield	None	none	None

The risk-free interest rate is derived from the average U.S. Treasury Note rate during the period, which approximates the rate in effect at the time of grant related to the expected life of the options. The risk free interest rate shown above is the weighted average rate for all options granted during the fiscal year. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options. The expected life calculation is based on the observed time to post-vesting exercise and/or forfeitures of options by our employees. The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no intention to pay cash dividends in the future. The estimated annualized forfeitures are based on the Company’s historical experience of option pre-vesting cancellations and are estimated at a rate of 22%. Under the provisions of SFAS 123(R), the Company will record additional expense in future periods if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than estimated, and will record a recovery of expense in future periods if the actual forfeitures are higher than estimated.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The Company, from time to time, purchases foreign currency forward exchange contracts, primarily in Japanese Yen, that permit it to sell specified amounts of these foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. These contracts are entered into to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates of export sales transactions in which settlement will occur in future periods and which otherwise would expose the Company, on the basis of its aggregate net cash flows in respective currencies, to foreign currency risk.

At June 30, 2009 the Company did not have any outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts. At June 30, 2008 the Company had outstanding contracts with a notional amount of approximately $8.1 million which approximated the fair value of these contracts on the statement of financial position. The Company records the change in the fair value of these contracts in the results of operations as they occur. The change in the fair value of these contracts for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was insignificant.

WORKERS’ COMPENSATION The Company is self-insured for certain losses related to workers’ compensation for its U.S. employees. Additionally, third-party insurance is obtained to limit our exposure to these claims in excess of $0.4 million per occurrence and $1.0 million in the aggregate per policy year. When estimating the self-insurance liability, the Company considers a number of factors, including historical claims experience, demographic and severity factors and valuations provided by independent third party consultants. Periodically, management reviews its assumptions and the valuations to determine the adequacy of the self-insurance liability.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity that result from transactions and other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners. Accumulated other comprehensive income is a component of shareholders’ equity and consists of accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments of $3.9 million and $3.6 million, net of income taxes of $0.6 million and $1.3 million, as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS EXCLUDING DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities The carrying amount approximates fair value because of their short maturities.

Debt Obligations The fair values of debt obligations are estimated based upon market values of similar issues. The fair values and carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations are approximately equivalent.

ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date

of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements where the FASB previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attributes.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 157 on July 1, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest (minority interest) in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Upon its adoption, effective as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year 2010, noncontrolling interests will be classified as equity in the Company’s financial statements and income and comprehensive income attributed to the noncontrolling interest will be included in the Company’s income and comprehensive income. The provisions of this standard must be applied retrospectively upon adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 160 on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). SFAS No. 141 (R) established principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The provisions of SFAS No. 141(R) are effective for the Company’s business combinations occurring on or after July 1, 2009.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” which requires enhanced disclosure on the effect of derivatives on a company’s financial statements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company’s disclosures.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS No. 165”). This statement establishes general standards of accounting and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but

before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This statement requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. This statement is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS No. 168”). The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of SFAS No. 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company will comply with the requirements of SFAS No. 168 beginning in the first fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2009.

Note B

DISCONTINUED OPERATION

In June 2009, the Company sold its x-ray and gamma-ray radiation business, eV PRODUCTS, Inc. for approximately $5.2 million in cash The Company recognized a $2.0 million loss on the sale of the business net of $1.2 million in income tax benefits. Included in the loss are total transaction costs of approximately $2.1 million associated with the sale. The Company believes that the sale of this non-strategic business will allow the Company to focus its financial resources and devote greater attention to the Company’s core businesses

This business was previously reported as a business within the Compound Semiconductor Group for segment reporting. Financial and operational data included herein for all periods presented reflect the presentation of eV PRODUCTS as a discontinued operation. Prior periods have been previously restated to present this business on a discontinued operation basis.

ACQUISITIONS

II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l.

In January 2007, the Company exercised its call option and purchased the remaining 25% interest of II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l. (“II-VI Suisse”) for approximately $0.8 million. In connection with the purchase of the remaining 25% interest, the Company entered into two separate three-year non-compete agreements with the sellers.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses. Identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations are recorded based upon fair market value at the date of acquisition.

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:


Year Ended June 30,	2009			2008
($000)
Balance – Beginning of Year	$	26,531		$	24,489

Goodwill acquired – HIGHYAG Lasertechnologie GmbH		—			1,580

Foreign currency translation		(390	)		462

Balance – End of Year	$	26,141		$	26,531

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” the Company reviews the recoverability of goodwill at least annually and any time business conditions indicate a potential change in recoverability. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of the business to the recorded value (including goodwill). The Company uses a discounted cash flow model (“DCF model”) to determine the current fair value of the business. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in the application of the DCF model to forecasted operating cash flows, including markets and market shares, sales volume and pricing, costs to produce, working capital changes and income tax rates. Management considers historical experience and all available information at the time the fair values of the business are estimated. However, actual fair value that could be realized could differ from those used to evaluate the impairment of goodwill. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, the Company conducted its annual impairment tests of its reporting units. Based on the results of these analyses, the Company’s goodwill of $26.1 million as of June 30, 2009 and $26.5 million as of June 30, 2008 was not impaired.

In connection with the acquisition of HIGHYAG in January 2008, the Company recorded the excess purchase price over the net assets of the business acquired as goodwill in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the purchase price allocation.

The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets other than goodwill as of June 30, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:


	June 30, 2009							June 30, 2008
($000)	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Book Value		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Book Value

Total	$	21,617	$	(9,346	)	$	12,271	$	21,504	$	(8,236	)	$	13,268

Amortization expense recorded on the intangible assets for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $1.3 million, $1.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively. In connection with the acquisition of Marlow, the Company acquired a trade name with an indefinite life. The carrying amount of $6.0 million is not amortized but tested annually for impairment. The Company completed its impairment test of the acquired trade name with an indefinite life in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008. Based on the results of these tests, the trade name was not impaired at either June 30, 2009 or 2008. Included in the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s patents, customer list and other component of intangible assets and goodwill is the effect of the foreign currency translation of the portion relating to the Company’s German subsidiaries. The estimated amortization expense for existing intangible assets for each of the five succeeding years is as follows:

Long-term debt	$	3,665	$	3,791

The Company’s credit facility is a $60.0 million unsecured line of credit which, under certain conditions, may be expanded to $100.0 million. The credit facility has a five-year term through October 2011 and has interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 0.50% to LIBOR plus 1.25% based upon the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Additionally, the facility is subject to certain covenants, including those relating to minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios.

The weighted average interest rate of borrowings was 2.2% and 4.2% for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company had available $59.3 million under its line of credit as of June 30, 2009 and 2008. The amounts available under the Company’s line of credit are reduced by outstanding letters of credit. At June 30, 2009 and 2008, total outstanding letters of credit supported by the credit facilities were $0.7 million.

The Company has a Yen loan which allows for borrowings up to 600 million Yen. The Yen loan has a term through June 2012. At June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had 350 million Yen and 400 million Yen borrowed under the loan, respectively. Interest is at a rate equal to the Japanese Yen Base Rate, as defined in the loan agreement, plus 1.49%. The Japanese Yen Base Rate was 0.78% at June 30, 2009 and 1.03% at June 30, 2008.

The Company has a line of credit facility with a Singapore bank which permits maximum borrowings in the local currency of approximately $0.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. Borrowings are payable upon demand with interest being charged at the rate of 1.00% above the bank’s prevailing prime lending rate. The interest rate was 5.25% at June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008. At June 30, 2009 and 2008 there were no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

The aggregate annual amounts of principal payments required on the long-term debt are as follows:

During the year ended June 30, 2009, the Company decided to adopt a tax planning strategy which should enable the utilization of foreign tax credit carryforwards. As a result, a deferred tax valuation allowance of $1.1 million was reversed to income and the Company recorded the benefit of the current year foreign tax credits generated. These foreign tax credits expire between 2012 and 2018.

During the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008, and 2007, net cash paid by the Company for income taxes was $8.9 million, $24.6 million, and $13.9 million, respectively.

Earnings before income taxes of our non-U.S. operations for June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $22.4 million, $36.0 million and $23.2 million, respectively. The Company has not recorded deferred income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. If the

earnings of such foreign subsidiaries were not indefinitely reinvested, an additional deferred tax liability of approximately $41.0 million and $32.0 million would have been required as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. It is the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries beyond the repatriated amount; therefore, no provision has been made for future income taxes on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries, as they are considered indefinitely reinvested.

The Company’s Vietnam subsidiary operates under a tax holiday and does not pay income taxes. This subsidiary is tax exempted through fiscal year 2010.

The sources of differences resulting in deferred income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations and the related tax effect of each were as follows:

As of June 30, 2009, the Company had utilized all of its state net operating loss carryforwards. For the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Company utilized $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $1.8 million of state net operating losses, respectively, to reduce current taxable income.

In July 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN 48 prescribes recognition and measurement standards for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with FIN 48 is a two step process. The first step is the determination of whether a tax position should be recognized in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is to be recognized only if the Company determines that it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities based upon the technical merits of the position. In step two, for those tax positions which should be recognized, the measurement of a tax position is determined as being the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 was effective July 1, 2007 with adoption treated as a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings.

Changes in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits following FIN 48 adoption for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 were as follows:


($000)	2009
Balance at July 1, 2008	$	7,473
Increases in current year tax positions		567
Increases in prior year tax positions		—
Decreases in prior year tax positions		—

Expiration of statute of limitations		(16	)
Balance at June 30, 2009	$	2,575

In July 2008, the Internal Revenue Service completed its examination of the Company’s income tax returns for fiscal years 2005 and 2006. As a result, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 the Company reversed certain unrecognized tax benefits from those fiscal years and recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $4.7 million.

The Company classifies all estimated and actual interest and penalties as income tax expense. During the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of interest and penalties within income tax expense. The Company had $0.2 million and $1.4 million of interest and penalties accrued at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company has classified the uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities as the amounts are not expected to be paid within one year. Including tax positions for which the Company determined that the tax position would not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold upon examination by the tax authorities based upon the technical merits of the position, the total estimated unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate was approximately $2.6 million at June 30, 2009. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next twelve months.

The fiscal years 2007 to 2009 remain open to examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service, fiscal years 2004 to 2009 remain open to examination by certain state jurisdictions, and fiscal years 2004 to 2009 remain open to examination by certain foreign taxing jurisdictions.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

On August 13, 2005, the Board of Directors adopted the II-VI Incorporated 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan was approved by the shareholders of the Company on November 4, 2005. The Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, deferred shares and performance units to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan shall not in the aggregate exceed 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock authorized plus any shares under the predecessor plan which is outstanding as of November 4, 2005, that expire or terminate without being exercised. All options to purchase shares of Common Stock granted under the Plan have been at market price at the date of grant. Generally, twenty percent of the options may be exercised one year from the date of grant with comparable annual increases on a cumulative basis each year thereafter. The stock option plan also has vesting provisions predicated upon the death, retirement or disability of the optionee. As of June 30, 2009, there were 632,650 shares available to be issued under the Plan.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company granted certain named executive officers performance share awards under the 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, the Company had two outstanding performance share grants covering the periods July 1, 2007 to June 30, 2009 and July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2010. The awards are intended to provide continuing emphasis on specified financial performance goals that the Company considers important contributors to long-term shareholder value. The awards are payable only if the Company achieves specified levels of revenue and cash flows from operations for the performance periods. Included in the $5.0 million, $4.0 million and $3.4 million of share-based compensation expense for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively, was $0.3 million, $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the same periods attributable to the two performance share plans. The performance share compensation expense was calculated based upon the number of shares projected to be earned multiplied by the stock price at the date the performance share plan was established. At June 30, 2009, the Company had one outstanding performance share plan covering the 24-month performance period from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2010. The projected target awards for this performance share plan are 14,800 shares at a fair market value per share at the grant date of $46.99. The projected share-based compensation expense attributable to this performance share plan to be recognized in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 is $0.2 million.

Stock option activity relating to the plans during the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was as follows:

SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC REPORTING

The Company reports its business segments using the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The Company determines its reportable business segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker organizes business segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. To aggregate operating segments, the Company considers if the operating segments have similar economic characteristics, and if the operating segments are similar in each of the following areas:

The nature of the products and services

The nature of the production processes

The type of class of customer for their products and services

The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services

The Company has four reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker receives and reviews financial information in this format. The Company evaluates business segment performance based

upon reported business segment earnings or loss, which is defined as earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, interest and other income or expense. The segments are managed separately due to the production requirements and facilities that are unique to each segment. The Company has the following reportable segments: Infrared Optics, which is the II-VI Infrared optics and material products businesses, HIGHYAG Lasertechnologie GmbH (“HIGHYAG”), a manufacturer of fiber-delivered beam transmission systems and processing tools for industrial lasers, and remaining corporate activities, primarily corporate assets and capital expenditures; Near-Infrared Optics, which is the VLOC subsidiary (“VLOC”), and the China and Vietnam near-infrared operations; Military & Materials, which is the Exotic Electro-Optics subsidiary (“EEO”) and Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals (PRM) subsidiary; and the Compound Semiconductor Group, which is the Marlow subsidiary, the Wide Bandgap Materials group (“WBG”) and the Worldwide Materials Group (“WMG”) which is responsible for the corporate research and development activities.

The Company sold its x-ray and gamma-ray radiation business, eV PRODUCTS, Inc., in June 2009. This business operated within the Compound Semiconductor Group. Segment information for periods presented herein exclude eV PRODUCTS as this business is accounted for as a discontinued operation.

The Infrared Optics segment is divided into the geographic locations in the U.S., Singapore, China, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Belgium, the U.K. and Italy. The Infrared Optics segment is directed by the segment’s president, while each geographic location is directed by a general manager, and is further divided into production and administrative units that are directed by managers. The Infrared Optics segment designs, manufactures and markets optical and electro-optical components and materials sold under the II-VI brand name and used primarily in high-power CO₂ lasers. The Infrared Optics segment also manufactures fiber-delivered beam delivery systems and processing tools for industrial lasers sold under the HIGHYAG Lasertechnologie GmbH brand name.

The Near-Infrared Optics segment is located in the U.S., China, Vietnam, Germany, Japan and the U.K. The Near-Infrared Optics segment is directed by a general manager. The Near-Infrared Optics segment is further divided into production and administrative units that are directed by managers. The Near-Infrared Optics segment designs, manufactures and markets near-infrared and visible-light products for industrial, scientific, military and medical instruments and laser gain material and products for solid-state YAG, YLF lasers and UV Filter components.

The Military & Materials segment is located in the U.S. and the Philippines. The Military & Materials segment is directed by a Corporate Vice-President while each geographic location is directed by a general manager. The Military & Materials segment is further divided into production and administrative units that are directed by managers. The Military & Materials segment designs, manufactures and markets infrared products for military applications under the Exotic Electro-Optics brand name and refines specialty metals, primarily selenium and tellurium metals, under the PRM brand name.

The Compound Semiconductor Group is located in the U.S., Germany, Japan, China and Vietnam. The Compound Semiconductor Group segment is directed by a Corporate Vice-President. Marlow designs and manufacturers thermo-electric cooling and power generation systems for use in defense and space, telecommunications, medical, consumer and industrial markets. WBG group manufactures and markets single crystal silicon carbide substrates for use in solid-state lighting, wireless infrastructure, radio frequency (“RF”) electronics and power switching industries. The WMG group directs the corporate research and development initiatives.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. Substantially all of the Company’s corporate expenses are allocated to the segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based upon reported segment earnings or loss, which is defined as earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, interest and other income or expense. Inter-segment sales and transfers have been eliminated.

The following tables summarize selected financial information of the Company’s operations by segment:

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Eligible U.S. employees of the Company participate in a profit sharing retirement plan. Contributions to the plan are made at the discretion of the Company’s board of directors and were $3.0 million, $3.4 million and $2.7 million for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The Company has an employee stock purchase plan available for employees who have completed six months of continuous employment with the Company. The employee may purchase the Company’s Common Stock at 5% below the prevailing market price. The amount of shares which may be bought by an employee during each fiscal year is limited to 10% of the employee’s base pay. This plan, as amended, limits the number of shares of Common Stock available for purchase to 800,000 shares. There were 323,113 and 336,026 shares of Common Stock available for purchase under the plan at June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

As a requirement of a collective bargaining agreement, PRM maintains a defined benefit plan for substantially all of its employees. The plan provides for retirement benefits based on a certain percentage of the latest monthly salary of an employee per year of service. The pension liability was $0.7 million and $0.5 million as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The actuarial assumptions used at June 30, 2009 and 2008 for the discount rate was 8.5% and 9.0%, respectively, and 6% for both fiscal years for future salary increases.

The Company has no program for post-retirement health and welfare benefits.

The II-VI Incorporated Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Compensation Plan”) is designed to allow officers and key employees of the Company to defer receipt of compensation into a trust fund for retirement purposes. The Compensation Plan is a nonqualified, defined contribution employees’ retirement plan. At the Company’s discretion, the Compensation Plan may be funded by the Company making contributions based on compensation deferrals, matching contributions and discretionary contributions. Compensation deferrals will be based on an election by the participant to defer a percentage of compensation under the Compensation Plan. All assets in the Compensation Plan are subject to claims of the Company’s creditors until such amounts are paid to the Compensation Plan participants. During the year ended June 30, 2007, the Company amended its Compensation Plan to restrict changes to and settlements of funds invested in the Common Stock of the Company, which is one of the investment elections available under the Compensation Plan. As a result of this amendment, the Compensation Plan changed from a liability plan to an equity plan. This change resulted in a

reduction of the deferred compensation liability associated with the fair value of the Common Stock of the Company held in the Compensation Plan by approximately $1.8 million for the year ended June 30, 2007 with a corresponding increase to the Company’s equity. Employees of the Company made contributions to the Compensation Plan in the amount of approximately $0.2 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively. There were no employer contributions made to the Compensation Plan for the years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007.

Note O

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has purchase commitments for materials and supplies as part of the ordinary conduct of business. A few of the commitments are long-term and are based on minimum purchase requirements. Due to the proprietary nature of some of the Company’s materials and processes, certain contracts may contain penalty provisions for early termination. The Company does not believe that a significant amount of penalties is reasonably likely to be incurred under these commitments based upon historical experience and current expectation. In addition, the Company has payment commitments relating to its acquisitions of PRM and HIGHYAG. Future commitments are as follows:

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of Francis J. Kramer, Chief Executive Officer and Craig A. Creaturo, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. The Company’s disclosure controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls’ stated goals. Based on that evaluation, Messrs. Kramer and Creaturo concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
