Item 1. Security and Issuer

This statement on Schedule 13D (this “Schedule”) relates to shares of common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), of II-VI Incorporated, a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Company”). The address and principal office of the Company is 375 Saxonburg Boulevard, Saxonburg, Pennsylvania 16056.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

(a) This Schedule 13D is being filed by Carl J. Johnson (“Dr. Johnson”).

(b), (c) Dr. Johnson is currently retired, but provides part-time consulting services to the Company, and is the former Chairman of the Company. The address of Dr. Johnson is 90 Elisabeth Way, McKinney, Texas 75069 and the address of the Company is 375 Saxonburg Boulevard, Saxonburg, Pennsylvania 16056.

(d), (e) During the past five years, Dr. Johnson has not (i) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was, or is, subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) U.S.A.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

No funds have been utilized to acquire Company Common Stock in the open market by Dr. Johnson since the filing of his last Schedule 13D amendment. The shares of Company Common Stock covered by this filing include shares historically purchased by Dr. Johnson from the Company using personal funds, shares acquired by him from the Company pursuant to stock splits and dividends, shares issued to him by the Company as bonus or compensation, and shares sold in the open market or transferred by Dr. Johnson to certain charitable trusts, limited partnerships and nonprofit corporations over which Dr. Johnson has shared voting and dispositive power as a trustee or partner (see Item 4 for additional discussion).

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

Dr. Johnson has no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the matters listed in Item 4 of Schedule 13D except that, from time to time, Dr. Johnson may acquire or dispose of shares of Company Common Stock through open market transactions or otherwise, and may gift shares of Company Common Stock to various family members or charitable organizations, including but not limited to (i) the Johnson Family Foundation, a charitable family trust in which Dr. Johnson is co-trustee (the “Johnson Foundation”), (ii) the II-VI Incorporated Foundation, a Pennsylvania nonprofit corporation for which Dr. Johnson serves as a trustee (the “II-VI Foundation”) and (iii) CJ&M Holdings, L.P., a family limited partnership for which Dr. Johnson acts as sole limited partner and majority general partner (“CJ&M LP”).

The original Schedule 13D was filed to report the acquisition of beneficial ownership of shares of Company Common Stock by Dr. Johnson resulting from the acquisition by him of certain rights of first refusal and option rights with respect to shares of the Company Common Stock held by a Voting Trust. Each Amendment historically filed thereafter, including this Amendment No. 8, was filed to report that Dr. Johnson then beneficially held more than 1% less of the outstanding Company Common Stock than reported in the prior amendment as a result of different transactions of varying sizes that took place after the filing of the prior amendment, none of which were individually material.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) - (b) Dr. Johnson has the sole voting and dispositive power over 1,329,351 shares (2.12% of the outstanding Company Common Stock) owned by him (including 33,634 shares over which he has the right to acquire ownership within 60 days pursuant to the exercise of vested options). In addition, Dr. Johnson has shared


voting and dispositive power over (i) 504,158 shares (0.81% of the outstanding Company Common Stock) held by the Johnson Foundation (over which shares he disclaims beneficial ownership), (iii) 532,061 shares (0.85% of the outstanding Company Common Stock) held by the II-VI Foundation (over which shares he disclaims beneficial ownership), and (iv) 1,643,109 shares (2.63% of the outstanding Company Common Stock) held by CJ&M LP (over which shares he disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of his pecuniary interest).

In the aggregate, Dr. Johnson has the beneficial ownership of 4,008,679 shares (or 6.41%) of the Company Common Stock, including the right to acquire (pursuant to Company options) 33,634 shares (or 0.05%) of Company Common Stock.

The above calculations are based upon the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding as of January 27, 2017, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 1, 2017.

(c) Since the filing of Amendment No. 7, various transactions have occurred, none of which individually constituted an increase or decrease in excess of 1% of the outstanding class of Company Common Stock beneficially owned by Dr. Johnson. Within the past sixty days, Dr. Johnson gifted 5,502 shares of Company Common Stock on February 9, 2017 to various family members, the II-VI Foundation sold 8,000 shares of Company Common Stock in the open market at an average market price of $34.7919 per share on January 24, 2017 and CJ&M LP sold 25,000 shares of Company Common Stock in the open market at an average market price of $35.9118 per share (with 20,000 shares being sold on January 24, 2017 and 5,000 shares being sold on February 9, 2017) .

(d) No person is known to Dr. Johnson to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the Company Common Stock held by him.

(e) N/A

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
