This operation is not only profitable, it is also in line with the Group’s strategy of strengthening our position in a recurring market and accelerating the optimisation of the Group’s industrial tools. »

Damien Buet, Chairman and CEO of Amplitude Laser Group, said: «This transaction enables Amplitude to focus its development on ultra-fast and very high-energy lasers for the US and global markets. I would like to thank the Continuum teams for their contribution to the Group in recent years. Lumibird’s acquisition will allow the Continuum range to accelerate its development and provide our customers with an enhanced offering in the field of solid-state nanosecond lasers. Amplitude will work closely with Lumibird to ensure a smooth transition for all stakeholders. ».
