31, 2023 (the &#147;2023 Reporting Period&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">13p-1</FONT> (the &#147;Rule&#148;) requires disclosure of
certain information when a company manufactures or contracts to manufacture products for which the minerals specified in the Rule are necessary to the functionality or production of those products. The specified minerals are gold,
columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite and wolframite, including their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten (the &#147;Conflict Minerals&#148; or &#147;3TGs&#148;). The &#147;Covered Countries&#148; for purposes of the
Rule are the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the Republic of the Congo, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia and Angola. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Coherent, a global leader in materials, networking and lasers, is a vertically integrated manufacturing company that develops, manufactures and markets
engineered materials, optoelectronic components and devices, and lasers for use in industrial materials processing, optical communications, aerospace and defense, consumer electronics, semiconductor capital equipment, medical diagnostics and life
sciences, automotive applications, machine tools, consumer goods and medical device manufacturing.&nbsp;Headquartered in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania, the Company has research and development, manufacturing, sales, service, and distribution facilities
worldwide. The Company&nbsp;produces a wide variety of lasers, along with application-specific photonic and electronic materials and components, and deploys them in various forms, including integrated with advanced software to enable its
customers.</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the 2023 Reporting Period, the Company conducted an internal survey of its divisions and required each division to disclose whether any
products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by the division contained 3TGs and, if so, to identify the suppliers of such 3TGs (&#147;Suppliers&#148;). As a result of this internal survey, the Company determined that certain of its
divisions manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products containing 3TGs which are necessary to the functionality or production of such products, as follows: (i)&nbsp;certain laser optics whose coatings contain gold, tantalum or tungsten,
(ii)&nbsp;certain machined parts that may contain gold plating or tin solder, and (iii)&nbsp;various parts and components containing gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten that are incorporated into products offered by the Company (collectively referred
to herein as the &#147;Covered Products&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based upon the determination that the Rule applies to the above-referenced Covered Products, the Company
undertook, with the assistance of Assent, our third-party service provider, a good-faith reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#147;RCOI&#148;) designed to determine whether any of the 3TGs included in such Covered Products originated in the
Covered Countries, and whether any of the 3TGs may be from recycled or scrap sources. The Company&#146;s RCOI is more fully described in the Conflict Minerals Report provided as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD. Through the RCOI, the Company determined
that it had reason to believe that some of the 3TGs necessary for the functionality or production of the Covered Products may have originated in a Covered Country. Therefore, the Company exercised due diligence on the source and chain of custody of
3TGs used in its Covered Products manufactured in calendar year 2023. These due diligence efforts are described in the Conflict Minerals Report provided as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company has developed a policy relating to Conflict Minerals, which is publicly available on its website at
www.coherent.com/company/investor-relations/esg/social to reflect a commitment to sourcing materials from companies that share its values on human rights, ethics and environmental responsibility. The Company expects its Suppliers to develop internal
conflict minerals policies, due diligence frameworks, and management systems which are designed to identify and ultimately eliminate from use in products sold to the Company any 3TGs that are known to come from sources funding armed groups in the
Covered Countries. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This Form SD and the attached Conflict Minerals Report for Coherent are publicly available on the Company website at

tungsten, (ii)&nbsp;certain machined parts that may contain gold plating or tin solder, and (iii)&nbsp;various parts and components containing gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten that are incorporated into products offered by the Company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:10pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Based upon the determination that the Rule applies to the above-referenced Covered Products, the Company undertook, with the assistance of
Assent, a good-faith reasonable country of origin inquiry (&#147;RCOI&#148;) designed to determine whether any of the 3TGs included in such Covered Products originated in the Covered Countries, and whether any of the 3TGs may be from recycled or
scrap sources. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:10pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">To collect data on the materials&#146; sources of origin procured by the supply chain, the Company utilized the Conflict
Minerals Reporting Template (&#147;CMRT&#148;) version 6.31 to conduct a survey of all in-scope Suppliers. The CMRT was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters and refiners that provide Conflict
Minerals into a company&#146;s supply chain. It includes questions regarding the origin of 3TGs included in a company&#146;s products, including the identity of smelters and refiners, a company&#146;s conflict-free policy, and a company&#146;s
engagement and due diligence with respect to its suppliers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:10pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">During the Supplier survey, the Company contacted its Suppliers via the
Assent Sustainability Manager (&#147;ASM&#148;), a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">software-as-a-service</FONT></FONT></FONT> (SaaS) platform provided by Assent that enables users to
complete and track Supplier communications and allows Suppliers to upload completed CMRTs directly to the platform for validation, assessment and management. The ASM automatically evaluated the quality of each Supplier response and assigned a health
score based on the Supplier&#146;s declaration of process engagement. Additionally, the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">step-by-step</FONT></FONT> process for Supplier engagement and upstream due diligence
investigations performed, were managed through this platform. </P>

also asked its Suppliers whether they (i)&nbsp;had a policy in place that includes DRC conflict-free sourcing and requires their direct suppliers to be DRC conflict-free; (ii)&nbsp;had implemented due diligence procedures for conflict-free sourcing;
and (iii)&nbsp;request names of SORs from their suppliers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Following the introduction to the 2023 program and information request,

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">As indicated above, the Company&#146;s program included automated data validation on all submitted CMRTs. The goal of data validation is to
increase the accuracy of submissions and identify any contradictory answers in the CMRT. This data validation is based on questions within the declaration tab of the CMRT which helps to identify areas that require further classification or risk
assessment, as well as understand the due diligence efforts of the Suppliers. Supplier responses were evaluated for plausibility, consistency, and gaps both in terms of which products were stated to contain or not contain necessary 3TGs, as well as
the origin of those materials. Additional Supplier contacts were conducted to address issues including: (i)&nbsp;implausible statements regarding no presence of 3TGs, (ii)&nbsp;incomplete data on CMRT, (iii)&nbsp;responses that did not identify
smelters or refiners, (iv)&nbsp;responses that indicated sourcing location without complete supporting information from the supply chain, and (v)&nbsp;organizations identified as smelter or refiners, but not verified as such through further analysis
and research. The results of this data validation contribute to the program&#146;s health assessment and are shared with the Suppliers to ensure they understand areas that require clarification or improvement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">All submitted CMRTs were accepted and classified as valid or invalid so that data is retained. Suppliers were contacted regarding invalid
forms and were encouraged to submit a valid form. Suppliers were also provided with guidance on how to correct validation errors in the form of feedback to their CMRT submission, training courses and direct engagement help through Assent&#146;s
multilingual Supplier Experience Team. Since some Suppliers may remain unresponsive to feedback, the Company tracks program gaps to account for future improvement opportunities. As of May&nbsp;15, 2024, there were 14 invalid Supplier submissions
that could not be corrected. The Company&#146;s total response rate for this reporting year was 84.4%. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

entire supply chain and was not necessarily limited to SORs that have been confirmed to contribute necessary 3TGs to a Covered Product. Accordingly, the Company has been unable to definitely link the identified SORs to only those products in the
Company&#146;s supply chain; therefore, Annex A likely contains more processing facilities than are actually in the Company&#146;s supply chain. As the Company&#146;s engagement with its supply chain evolves, the list of facilities may change to

many third parties in the supply chain between the original sources of 3TGs and the Company&#146;s manufacturing of the Covered Products. Accordingly, the efforts the Company has undertaken to identify the source and chain of custody of the 3TGs in
its Covered Products reflect the Company&#146;s circumstances and position in the supply chain.&nbsp;As a result, the Company&#146;s inquiry can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of the 3TGs
necessary to the functionality of the Covered Products. The Company&#146;s process relies on data obtained directly from its Suppliers who seek similar information within their supply chain to identify the original sources of the necessary 3TGs.
