Management Comments
"Strong sales in North America and Japan drove our revenue growth as we focus on opportunities that diversify our revenue across key geographies and applications, including e-mobility and medical," said Dr. Eugene Scherbakov, IPG Photonics' Chief Executive Officer. "IPG's innovative solutions are generating increased laser adoption in welding applications, primarily in electric vehicle manufacturing, but also in general automotive and industrial applications with continued adoption of the LightWELD in handheld applications. We reached a significant milestone as revenue from welding applications surpassed high power cutting revenue in a number of key geographies. We are also seeing higher demand across many emerging growth products that help diversify our exposure across different applications, such as medical, battery welding and foil cutting applications."
Financial Highlights
Second quarter revenue of $377 million increased 1% year over year. Exchange rates were a meaningful headwind to revenue, reducing it by approximately $18 million on a constant currency basis. Materials processing sales accounted for 91% of total revenue and decreased 1% year over year with higher sales in welding and cleaning applications offset by lower revenue in cutting and solar cell manufacturing applications. Sales into Other applications increased 29% year over year, driven by the strength in medical. Emerging growth products sales accounted for 40% of total revenue.
Revenue in high power continuous wave (CW) lasers declined 14% year over year due to lower demand in high power cutting applications in China, which was partially offset by strong growth in welding and cutting applications in North America and Japan. Sales of pulsed lasers grew significantly compared with the prior year primarily driven by foil cutting, partially offset by lower sales into solar cell manufacturing. By region, sales increased 33% in North America, 43% in Japan, and 2% in Europe, and decreased 14% in China on a year-over-year basis.
Earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $1.10 decreased by 15% year over year. Foreign exchange transaction losses reduced operating income by $18 million or 4.7 percentage points and also reduced EPS by $0.28. The effective tax rate in the quarter was 22%, benefiting from certain discrete items. During the second quarter, IPG generated $79 million in cash from operations. Capital expenditures were $35 million and stock repurchases were $233 million in the quarter.

Exhibit 99.1
Business Outlook and Financial Guidance
“Second quarter book-to-bill was slightly below one and bookings declined from the record level last quarter on more moderate demand in Europe as well as currency headwinds. While the operating environment is uncertain, we believe that fiber laser adoption will continue to drive demand across many applications and geographies and will benefit from global trends including increasing automation, e-mobility, renewable energy and energy efficiency as energy costs rise globally," concluded Dr. Scherbakov.
For the third quarter of 2022, IPG expects revenue of $350 to $380 million. The Company expects the third quarter tax rate to be approximately 25%. IPG anticipates delivering earnings per diluted share in the range of $1.00 to $1.30. We estimate that the third quarter guidance range is reduced by approximately $15 million due to foreign currency translation headwinds that are primarily related to the strength of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Euro and Chinese Yuan.
As discussed in more detail in the "Safe Harbor" passage of this news release, actual results may differ from this guidance due to various factors including, but not limited to, trade policy changes and trade restrictions with Russia, the COVID-19 pandemic, product demand, order cancellations and delays, competition, tariffs, currency fluctuations and general economic conditions. This guidance is based upon current market conditions and expectations, and is subject to the risks outlined in the Company's reports filed with the SEC, and assumes exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar of Euro 0.96, Russian Ruble 51, Japanese Yen 136 and Chinese Yuan 6.71, respectively.
Authorization of New Stock Buyback Program
After completing previously authorized share repurchase programs during the quarter, the Board of Directors has authorized a new program to purchase up to $300 million of IPG common stock. In the first half of 2022, the Company repurchased $312 million of its common stock. Share repurchases may be made periodically in open-market or other transactions, and are subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. The share repurchase program authorization does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of its shares, and repurchases may be commenced or suspended from time to time without prior notice.
