Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) (“LPC”), a leading global developer of industrial laser systems for cleaning and other material processing applications, announced today that it will officially be transitioning into an Operational Holding Company with wholly-owned subsidiaries under the name “LASE Holdings.” LASE Holdings will be based out of a corporate office in Lake Mary, Florida.

In connection with the recent acquisition of Control Micro Systems, Inc. by LPC, the company is starting to undergo a reorganization into targeted market divisions. This move supports LPC’s broad diversification strategy, expanding into traditional markets and targeting high-growth sectors to unlock greater opportunities and enhance resilience. The projected subsidiaries under LASE Holdings are Laser Photonics, CMS Laser, Control Micro Systems, LP Semiconductor, 3D AXS and LP Media Group. Markets of focus are: eco-friendly laser cleaning, industrial material processing, medical & pharmaceutical systems, semiconductor and flat-panel display processing systems, additive manufacturing, full-service marketing agency and government and defense laser systems.

“Laser Photonics Corporation will be elevated to a holding company without any effect on existing shareholders,” said John Armstrong, Executive Vice President of LASE Holdings. “We have started with the initial phases of the transition and are expecting that it will be completed during the first quarter of 2025, and we look forward to continue adding innovative solutions to our product offering as we work toward creating an operation that offers the largest selection of laser systems in North America.”

The planned reorganization is poised to contribute to growing shareholder value as it is expected to strengthen LPC’s financial performance and foster greater resilience in evolving markets. Leveraging extensive expertise in bringing innovative laser technology from concept to revenue-generating industrial products, LASE Holdings is ready to drive long-term value by improving profitability, expanding market share, and elevating the company’s reputation in key sectors.
