    The bidding war to acquire laser company Coherent shows no sign of abating, with Lumentum responding to II-VI’s latest offer with another increased bid of its own.

    Latest bid now includes $1 billion in support from investor Silver Lake.

    Estimated to be worth $6.9 billion – slightly higher than II-VI’s latest offer – the new Lumentum deal would see $220 in cash and 0.61 Lumentum shares exchanged for each Coherent share.
