Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Thanks, Mary Jane. Good afternoon and thank you to everyone for joining us today. Our second quarter performance was strong on many fronts. This performance is the result of growing customer demand for our products across key end markets and continued success with our M&A integration efforts. We made it our first priority to seize the right opportunities to deepen customer trust and increase the mindshare of our high-value customers, who seek strategic partners like II-VI with a track record of delivering market-leading technology in compound semiconductor devices and photonic solutions, those who operate in a global footprint and have the financial stability to deliver innovations over the long term.
As a result of the acquisition, we are seeing customers increasingly leaning on us now that we possess the broadest product portfolio, applications expertise and scalable manufacturing capabilities in the optical communications industry. Customers realize that our business is built on enabling technology platforms of broad IP portfolio, and experienced people who can take on the toughest challenges and emerge with differentiated products.
Our optical communications end market was very strong. Our growth was driven primarily by three factors, increased demand for our transceivers and related components, the continued strength of the ROADM components combined with market share gains in the overall emergence of 5G. Our ramp of new products for 5G has accelerated as over 80 carriers rearchitect their networks to handle the transition from 3G and 4G as 5 billion mobile subscribers today begin to migrate to 5G. We believe that a large and multi-year opportunity for II-VI is unfolding.
During the quarter, we saw the datacom market begin to recover, driving robust performance for transceivers this quarter, beating our revenue expectations by $40 million. The organic growth of Datacom VCSELs was 30% year-over-year and 38% sequentially. These are not only great results, but they validate our components and module strategy. We expect this strategy to also drive indium phosphide laser component revenue by leveraging our existing sales channels and our world-class technology platforms.
ROADM's subsystems and components continue to be strong with 16% organic sequential growth. Sales were very strong of amplifiers, line cards and all enabling components, including passive optics, wavelength selective switches, which experienced record demand, and 980 nanometer pumps, which also experienced extremely strong demand for undersea applications.
In fact, when accounting for the accelerating demand for 5G, most of these manufacturing lines were sold out. In addition, the success of our earlier acquisitions are enabling our success in our low port count, low power consumption wavelength selective switches at the edge of the network, where we are seeing a lot of interest and early adoption. Moreover, advancements in operational excellence has significantly improved margins for these products.
Our silicon carbide business grew 77% sequentially and 14% year-over-year. We are continuing to diversify our customer base and gain long-term contracts in both RF and power electronics. Our capacity expansion is also well on track. For 3D sensing, we had record shipments from our fab in Warren, New Jersey. Growth more than doubled both sequentially and year-over-year. The ongoing operational excellence and quality improvement initiatives at Warren have resulted in the manufacture of VCSEL arrays at high volumes with sustained high yield and high reliability.
We are bringing all of our experience to bear on the launch of new products at Warren and to position Sherman as a world-class compound semiconductor device fab. They are well on their way and I'm excited about the work we are doing to qualify our VCSEL manufacturing line at Sherman. Our target remains to complete the qualification inside this quarter, and I am optimistic about it given the progress we've made. We believe that the sustained investment to establish an in-house vertically integrated 6-inch platform will enable us to achieve the most competitive and long-term viable cost structure in the industry for manufacturing advanced compound semiconductor devices at scale.
In aerospace and defense, our businesses continue to grow nicely as we signed some large contracts during the last quarter. Aerospace and defense is increasingly turning into a new growth market for II-VI with 13% sequential growth this quarter. Our advanced materials, electro-optic components and subsystems platforms, combined with the semiconductor laser are central to our growth strategy in this end market as we align our capabilities with our high-value customers to enable them to win.
We have four major market segments of the market that we are allocating our capital to and to complement the capabilities of our most recent acquisitions. Those four segments are F-35, satellites and contested space, hypersonics, and directed energy. Our integration is off to an excellent start. The cost reductions anticipated are a major priority for us. We need to align our cost with market realities and deliver not only synergies, but improved long-term operating performance.
Our new values underscore our commitment to drive efficient allocation of capital, improved cash flow and sustained long-term returns. Our sales in global procurement organizations accelerated quickly and are delivering synergies right on track. Our segment and corporate leaders have led by example and all have contributed to creating the tone and tempo at the top around delivering the cost synergies and operating performance achieved to date.
Finally, I'll spend a minute on the evolving coronavirus outbreak. First, we are committed to protecting the health and safety of all of our employees, while delivering for our customers. I am proud of our worldwide leaders who have collaborated from the outset to provide a business continuity and emergency management plan, and who are carefully tending to the needs of our employees.
We have been in daily communications with our China-based employees and the local governments where we operate to be sure we are fully knowledgeable of the changing landscape and fully compliant with the requirements. Beginning today, about a third of our China workforce returned to work. Our operating model for the quarter contemplates that they will all be back to work within the next several weeks. As we reported in today's press release, our financial outlook for the current March quarter is expected to be affected and has been reflected in our guidance. Mary Jane will provide some additional color on this later as it relates to the short-term impact.
Regarding business continuity planning, I would like to remind everyone that we also have a major manufacturing footprint in Asia outside China. So, we are working closely with our strategic customers to shift some demand to our factories in Malaysia and in Vietnam to mitigate any impact to their supply lines.
Before I turn it over to Giovanni, I'd like to thank our customers, our business partners and our employees for enthusiastically aligning around our strategy as we work to position II-VI for the tremendous growth opportunities ahead of us, and, in particular, I wish all of our China employees good health while we thank them in advance for their hard work as they return. Giovanni?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Thank you, Chuck, and good afternoon. The multiple market drivers of our growth this quarter underscore the enduring logic of our strategy, which relies on engineered materials, differentiated components and operational excellence to provide our customers vertically integrated solutions with high barriers to entry.
Prior to the acquisition, II-VI established a strong business in components for datacom transceivers, which represents today 13% of our organic pre-Finisar communications business. The production to the merchant market of previously captive Finisar components seems to be well timed since we've just told [Phonetic] our organic business pick up 20% sequentially and 24% year-over-year.
In fact, within a few months of closing the acquisition, we are already in the process of multiple qualification engagements for indium phosphide based components. Additionally, to support the anticipated market growth, we just announced an industry-first 6-inch wafer manufacturing platform for Datacom VCSELs. We are continuing to invest in part of the technology differentiation in lasers, including DMLs and EMLs to get ready for what, we believe, will be a strong uptick in the datacom market in the second half of calendar year 2020.
The 100G transceiver business, currently, the largest part of the total addressable market, was very strong in the quarter and ahead of expectations. Our growth in 100G was driven by hyperscale data centers, which continue to upgrade their leaf-to-spine interconnections from 40G to 100G. Strong feedback from our major customers is an indication of continued momentum in this market.
Regarding 200G, 400G and 800G datacom transceivers, we are currently the market leader in 200G. We have been shipping 400G products for some time with several other design-in qualifications under way. And we also have 800G modules in design. We particularly expect that for 400G and 800G, our leaderships in lasers, optics and integrated circuits design expertise will be vital. This is because we believe that the multi-disciplinary excellence in lasers, optics and electronics is especially critical to accelerate our time-to-market and to deliver the best performing transceivers, modules and components money can buy. It's clear from recent actions by competitors that the merits of multi-disciplinary competence within the same company is a winning strategy to continue to lead in a very competitive market.
We have significantly increased our investments in coherent optics, especially in R&D, and are pleased with the progress in transmitters and receivers, including tunable subassemblies as well as in transceiver modules. We have recently secured eight design wins. We have started shipping production volumes and we have 15 design-in qualifications under way. Coherent optics now represents about 15% of our transceiver business.
In silicon carbide, we are in the process of expanding the physical footprint of our manufacturing infrastructure and additional capacity is coming online according to schedule. The growth this quarter was largely in RF, a trend that's started in the June quarter. While demand for power applications like electric vehicles is down year-over-year, we saw a nice pick up sequentially, doubling since last quarter.
Industrial was flat sequentially, though it is still below the prior year. We saw the beginning of a recovery sequentially in Asia overall, including China, likely indicating the resumption of laser utilization. Components for semiconductor capital equipment were in high demand, continuing the strength we reported last quarter, driven by the global logic semiconductor market. Our EUV business, which was flat year-over-year and grew about 7% sequentially, is now experiencing assumption in growing demand and we expect this to continue over the next 12 months.
Aerospace and defense is really taking off. We had growth in both new and existing programs and have a very healthy pipeline of new design-in opportunities but we have a significant ability to differentiate the end solution.
With that, let me turn it over to Mary Jane.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Thank you, Giovanni, and good afternoon. First, to summarize all the growth and distribution by end markets, the Company's reported revenue growth was nearly 100% year-over-year since Finisar was not in last year's result. The better total Company measure to use is pro forma, including Finisar's results from similar prior periods using Note 3 of the 10-Q.
Apples-to-apples, the Company's -- the total Company's year-over-year growth was flat. Organically, pre-Finisar, year-over-year growth was 5%. Year-over-year, the communications reported revenue growth of 200%, same reason, Finisar wasn't in last year, but on an estimated pro forma basis, growth year-over-year in communications was down 4%. Organically, year-over-year communications grew 2%. As for the other end markets on a reported and organic basis, consumer doubled year-over-year; aerospace and defense grew 20%; components to semiconductor capital equipment grew 6%; and industrial declined 12%.
Sequentially, on a pro forma basis, the total Company grew 10% and communications grew an estimated 4%. For the other end markets, consumer doubled sequentially as well; aerospace and defense grew 13%; and finally, industrial and semiconductor capital equipment were flat.
During the quarter, the total revenue of $666 million was split 70% in communications, 11% in industrial, 7% in aerospace and defense, 5% in consumer, 4% in semiconductor capital equipment, and the rest is in the other end markets. Geographically, our end-market profile continues to be well diversified with 39% in North America, 19% in Europe, 14% in each of China and the rest of Asia, 8% in Japan, and 6% in the rest of the world.
The non-GAAP gross margin was 35%, mostly due to the elimination of the $81 million one-time expense from the step-up of the acquired inventory. Operating margin on a non-GAAP basis was 9.8%, including the start-up cost for Sherman, which were $19 million in the quarter. Sherman cost added back would yield an operating margin of 12.6%. So we are looking forward to putting those costs to work. Non-GAAP EPS was $0.36, with the pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments of $144 million coming in very close to our estimated $149 million, though our tax attributes are now such that we need to tax effect these items. Non-GAAP return on sales was 5%.
At the segment level, the adjusted operating margins were 12% for Photonics and 5% for Compound Semiconductors. Photonics benefited from the pick up in the transceiver volume and richer mix, including more than doubling its submarine pump sales. Compound Semi also benefited from strong VCSELs -- VCSEL arrays organically. Their results include the $19 million of start-up costs for Sherman, which accounts for 9 points of the segment operating margin.
Our quarter-end backlog was $681 million, consisting of $333 million in Photonics and $346 million in Compound Semiconductors. This compares to last quarter of $721 million, totaled with $386 million in Photonics and $335 million in Compound Semiconductors. The backlog contains orders that will ship over the next 12 months.
Capital expenditures this quarter were $55 million. For the combined company for the year, we are expecting capex in the $150 million to $200 million range. Interest expense was $28 million for the quarter. Debt decreased $80 million with repayments during the quarter on the revolver and the term loans. The total expected debt service payments for the quarter are $30 million in interest and $17 million in required prepayments. Our cash is $376 million and our net debt position is $1.92 billion. Our net debt leverage ratio on the basis of our credit facility is 3.8 times. We are still assessing the tax position of the Company, but believe at this time that the tax rate will range from 9% to 12% for fiscal year 2020.
Regarding our progress on synergies, we are tracking well against our target of $150 million in annual cost synergies within three years of the close of the transaction. At this point, we have identified all of the target synergies. Along with these cost reductions, we have also turned up our efforts on working capital improvements, including standardizing payment terms for common customers and suppliers, and defining opportunities to streamline purchased services.
Regarding the trade agreement in December, that was a welcome change to the heightened tensions, and we hope that discussions progress favorably from there. With regard to restrictions on specific customers, further actions have been stayed at this time. We continue to serve all customers within the bounds of the allowable trade compliance guidelines.
Turning to the outlook. Consideration of the coronavirus effects are included in our guidance. The effects are potentially broad reaching. Not only our many of our factories and employees dealing with a longer Chinese New Year holiday, there are also potential effects on the overall supply chain. We expect to be moving back to full strength over the next several weeks. We have, therefore, included a minimum of $50 million revenue reduction in our guidance to account for these conditions.
Guidance then for the third fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2020 is revenue of $550 million to $600 million and the EPS on a non-GAAP basis is $0.02 to $0.32. This is at today's exchange rate and at an estimated 10% tax rate. The non-GAAP items in the EPS totaled $0.59, including a pre-tax amount of $16 million in stock compensation, $34 million in amortization and $13 million in costs to facilitate the integration. The share count to be used is 94 million shares. The tax rate and exchange rates are subject to change.
We were pleased to see some of you at Photonics West, and our investor meeting at OFC will be Tuesday, March 10 at 4:15 Pacific Time. Now, as we turn to the Q&A for this call, remember that our actual results may differ from these forecasts due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, changes in product mix, customer orders, competition, changes in trade and tariff regulations, employee health issues and general economic conditions. I'll also remind you that our answers to your questions today may contain certain forward-looking statements which are based on our best knowledge today, and for which, actual results may differ materially.
Kyle, you may open the line for questions.
Questions and Answers:
Operator
[Operator Instructions] Your first question comes from the line of Meta Marshall from Morgan Stanley. Your line is now open.
Meta Marshall -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Great, thanks. Maybe two questions for me. On the datacom transceiver side of the business, that seemed exceptionally strong. Can you just give a sense of whether you thought that those were market share gains or just kind of stronger demand in general and was it a change in generation of speed that kind of drove that?
And then maybe second, just on the coronavirus impact, is how you evaluated that kind of production ability or demand currently? Just any helpful as to whether that number was triangulated on supplier demand? Thanks.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Okay. Meta, this is Chuck. Thanks for your question. On the datacom side of the business, we think it's demand. And we are positioning ourselves for market share gains, but we think this time around it was demand.
On the coronavirus, I want to tell you that our order book for the third quarter as we closed 12/31 was extremely strong. And our care and carefulness here is just simply measured by our ability to get people back and to fully assess any holes that we may have in the supply chain. And I can guarantee that we'll do everything we can with what we have, but we are not limited by orders. And based on the enthusiasm that we feel, I think that if we could ship everything, we'll be able to take on even more business that we have scheduled for the fourth quarter.
Meta Marshall -- Morgan Stanley -- Analyst
Got it, thanks.

Your next question comes from the line of Jim Ricchiuti from Needham & Company. Jim, your line is now open.
Jim Ricchiuti -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
Hi, thanks, good afternoon. So looking at that shortfall that you're anticipating as a result of the coronavirus, is that $50 million should we think about it, again, mainly in that 70% bucket, that's optical communications? Are you seeing some impact in industrial? It sounds like it's more in the 70% portion of the business.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
It is. We have some products from Comp Semi that are processed in China. But generally speaking, I would say that it's very, very likely that you've got it exactly right.
Jim Ricchiuti -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
Now, if you look -- as you look at the supply chain, obviously, that's harder to, I guess, identify where there could be some issues that surface as a result of this. What are you seeing so far out there in the supply chain or is it too early to tell where some of the issues may pop up?
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
I would say that, given our full stream inventory, which we pay close attention toward all the time, but especially at this time, to be able to maximize our revenue and maximize our shipments to our customers, so we will turn there immediately to both the raw materials, the WIP and the finished goods.
Having said that, one of the great things that we observe here is that even throughout the Chinese New Year and especially afterwards, our teams are -- our international procurement teams have been working from home. They have a pretty good view of it, while we simply don't have a good view of yet is how to align the overall shipments that we're going to need to make with the people that we have and how we're going to prioritize. We're going to do that in close collaboration with our customer. I would say that, we have a real good command of the supply chain about that and a little bit less than 50% of our total supply chain is inside China and we've done that in part to balance and mitigate the risks. So I think we have a good grip on it, Jim, as best as we can.
Jim Ricchiuti -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
Got it. And last question from me. Jane, you, I guess, reiterated the cost savings at $150 million. Are you guys still on target just given the headwinds from the coronavirus to that $35 million in year one?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't exceed it, but we are well on it. Yes.
Jim Ricchiuti -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
Thank you.
Operator
Your next question comes from the line of Troy Jensen from Piper Sandler. Troy, your line is now open.
Troy Jensen -- Piper Sandler -- Analyst
Hey, first of all, congrats on the revenue upside here. Nice job.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Thanks.
Troy Jensen -- Piper Sandler -- Analyst
Hey, so, Chuck, I heard you -- I think I heard you say a third of the employees have returned to work in China. And Mary Jane, did you say that you expect to be at full capacity within a couple of weeks?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. We believe that certainly probably by at least at the latest mid-March is what we're thinking right now. And we expect the increase in the strength in the plant to come -- to increase each week.
Troy Jensen -- Piper Sandler -- Analyst
Right. Definitely makes sense. How about -- just Mary Jane, for you. Could you give us any kind of help sequentially on where you think gross margins go or OpEx? I'm assuming that has a decline on an absolute basis given the synergies you are talking about, but any help would be great.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So, again, keep in mind that what we're looking at here is the achievement of synergies on an annualized basis. From a gross margin point of view, that is very tough to call. It really does depend on what the shipments are with respect to the coronavirus. I would say that in setting the guidance, we assumed a little bit of a heavier fall through onto the EPS simply because we could have. Everybody dressed up for the party and not able to ship for not having enough people in the factory. But the gross margin is an important priority for us. And I would say that, I would expect to see a steady contribution to the synergy -- to the OpEx as we go forward.
But as for actually giving specific numbers on that, I don't -- we typically don't give one item guidance, but we will also talk more about this at OFC. Generally speaking, I would say though that it has been a priority for us to both drive the synergies and preserve the cash. One of, which -- both of which together is leading to quite a very, very tight restriction on headcount additions.
Troy Jensen -- Piper Sandler -- Analyst
Understood. All right, keep up the good work.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Thank you, Troy.

Your next question comes from the line of Samik Chatterjee from JPMorgan. Samik, your line is now open.
Samik Chatterjee -- JPMorgan -- Analyst
Hi, thanks for taking my question. Chuck, I just wanted to see if you can give me a bit of background on what the qualification process for the Sherman plant involves. Is this qualification with a particular customer or to certain independent metrics? And how does the qualification place you in terms of business win with customers that you qualify the plant with?
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
We have basically two levels of qualification all the time. One is our own manufacturing line qualification that involves every aspect of manufacturing equipment, materials, processes, our overall process characterization and control, and then in conjunction with our customers in certain cases. This qualification plan is consistent with both. And so we have a track record of qualifying, exactly what it is that we need to do and we are working through it.
And Giovanni, would you like to say something else about our overall qualification? Giovanni's segment is really doing a great job.
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Yes. Samik, this is Giovanni here. So, of course, we have also Datacom VCSELs line there. So it's another platform that we are bringing up to speed after the shutdown of the Allen facility. That's also part of the overall qualification of the plant. I think we are really on top of the challenges there. And as Chuck said, we believe that we'll be qualified by the end of this quarter -- by the end of March.
Samik Chatterjee -- JPMorgan -- Analyst
Okay. If I can just follow-up. You mentioned that you're seeing kind of sequential improvement in the industrial market, although on a year-over-year basis it might be still declining. How are you thinking about the remainder of the year here -- from here on? And does the coronavirus impact have the kind of derail the recovery in that end market?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Well, first of all, let me just orient [Phonetic] how we tend to look at this from a growth and/or decline. Normally, when the demand goes down for new machines, we sometimes see the aftermarket go up. And as you will remember, the aftermarket is about half of our industrial business. And so what we said in the last quarter was that with the falling GDPs, we had seen lower industrial production driving lower laser utilization.
What it looks to us like we're seeing now and the sequential pick up we've seen is kind of a return of laser utilization. And so that may well continue for a while. That would be nice to see that pick up even more. But we are not making any predictions on when -- and Chuck may have some thoughts to share here, when we will expect to see on the larger industrial market sales of new machines.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
I would just add, Samik, our June quarter tends to be among our strongest. So in the second half of this fiscal year, assuming the effects of the coronavirus are behind us and the supply chains are back up and running, we would be optimistic about the June quarter. The March quarter is a little bit harder to call given the situation. And also, we have been following that and I've been talking about it here for some time, the Caixin PMI index in China, we think is a fairly good manufacturing indexes, a fairly good proxy for us. And the Chinese government announced on February 7, they will not publish the January results until March when they publish January and February all at once. So we are expecting there is going to be some impact there even though most of the impact that we have in the $50 million factored in is from communications. Okay?
Samik Chatterjee -- JPMorgan -- Analyst
Got it. Thank you.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Yes.

Your next question comes from the line of Tim Savageaux from Northland Capital Markets. Tim, your line is now open.
Tim Savageaux -- Northland Capital Markets -- Analyst
Hi, good afternoon. My question is kind of on the pro forma -- at least focused on pro forma growth and you went through a number of metrics there. But I guess, just ex-ing out the impact of the coronavirus in your fiscal Q3 guide, and it looks like on a pro forma basis you're still be down, I don't know, something on the order of 3%, 4% year-over-year pro forma. Is that kind of generally accurate? You mentioned flat year-over-year for the current quarter. And I'm just wondering what the kind of puts and takes are? You've made some pretty positive comments about growth in communications, both datacom and telecom here. So if you look at what's growing and what's shrinking, can you kind of address or give us some color on those dynamics? And when you might expect the Company to return to a growth footing on a pro forma basis? Thanks.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So first of all, I think what we are trying to indicate for the total Company is and so far as the communications contribution is concerned that it looks to be turning a corner, that's the first thing. Second of all, this is the first -- a good quarter again sequentially that we have seen industrial perhaps also starting to turn the quarter.
Giovanni talked a little bit about EUV, which, after a little bit of a pause, is also turning to great strides. So I don't think that we're going to necessarily predict what quarter that we're going to see growth. But the Company as it looks at its backlog, as it looks at its order book and, really, the excitement of customers, there are a lot of very strong growth factors in front of us. And I think there is no question that we are really beginning to see all aspects of 5G beginning to pick up.
So let me see if Giovanni and Chuck want add anything.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
It's great, Mary Jane. Thanks for your questions, Tim.
Tim Savageaux -- Northland Capital Markets -- Analyst

Your next question comes from the line of Mark Miller from The Benchmark Company. Mark, your line is now open.
Mark Miller -- The Benchmark Company -- Analyst
Did you disclose bookings or book-to-bill for the quarter?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
We didn't say what it was, but it's 1.
Mark Miller -- The Benchmark Company -- Analyst
Book-to-bill was 1, OK. You talked about record shipments from Warren in the -- for 3D. I'm just wondering, could you talk a little about Android. What do you see in Android? Is that also a strong spot for you?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Mark, this is Giovanni. Not yet.
Mark Miller -- The Benchmark Company -- Analyst
Okay. And then finally, what were the North American shipments as a percent of total?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
North America as a percent of total is, it was standing at...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
39%.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
39%.
Mark Miller -- The Benchmark Company -- Analyst
Then what was Asia, I'm sorry.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So, Asia we do in a few parts. So, China overall was 14%, Japan was 8%, and the rest of Asia was 14%.
Mark Miller -- The Benchmark Company -- Analyst
Okay, thank you.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Sure.

Your next question comes from the line of Simon Leopold from Raymond James. Simon, your line is now open.
Simon Leopold -- Raymond James -- Analyst
Thank you very much for taking the question. I wanted to ask two. The first is, just trying to double-click on the coronavirus estimation. I understand that quarters aren't necessarily linear, but rough math that $50 million delta is roughly 8%, 9% of -- kind of the midpoint of total revenue, and that's about one week. And already we know that the Chinese New Year holiday was extended one week. So it doesn't seem that conservative in terms of a headwind. And I'm just trying to get a better understanding of how you arrived at that $50 million sort of what you're thinking given that Mary Jane indicated that sort of your worst case scenario suggest workers might not be fully up to speed for what could be more than a month, I think mid-March. I'm just trying to understand this. Thank you.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Well, first of all, what is -- so the case at II-VI is, we had a significant amount of employees worked through Chinese New Year. They were registered with the local government. This was allowed, we did that. That's why Chuck says that we have a good handle on the supply chain, because we could see the supply chain working during the Chinese New Year period. So that's the first thing.
The second thing is, we have, as Chuck said, about a third of our employees back to work. So on the one hand, it's not 100%, on the other hand, it's not zero. So at this point, in our discussions with the leaders of our factories in China, looking at all the factors, looking at what's been produced, looking at January and how we think that people will gradually come back over the next several weeks, that's how we arrived at the $50 million.
Now, do keep in mind we did say it was at least $50 million. And if the timeline were to go on, if there was some other extended set of national directives, yes, that number could change. But basically that's how we got there.Well, first of all, what is -- so the case at II-VI is, we have a significant amount of employees work through Chinese New Year.

Simon Leopold -- Raymond James -- Analyst
And in terms of the employees you have in China, my rough estimate was, it's close to 70% of your headcount and then most of the locations, if not all, are considered, I would say, coastal cities. Could you just validate whether or not I've got that right?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So first of all, the number of employees, no. It's probably more like 45% of the employees, 45% to 50%. And second of all, as to whether they are considered coastal cities...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
80% of the roughly 45% to 50% of our employees are located in our two mega facilities, one in Wuxi and one in Fuzhou. None of them are in the Hubei province.
Simon Leopold -- Raymond James -- Analyst
That's what I wanted to verify. I appreciate that. And then just on a different topic. In terms of the strength of the WSS ROADM business, it sounds like good demand drivers there. Just wondering if you have any ability to assess how much of that might be related to inventory stocking by Chinese customers and how much is actually the end-market demand. Is there any way to get some insight on that? Thanks.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
So I mean, it's a great question. We've been asked that for three years now and we answer it every time the same way. We believe that our customers place orders on us for both their end item demand and for the change in their inventory. We don't have any indication, any agreement or any belief if there is anything outside the ordinary production plus inventory change that's happening in our supply chain.
I do believe that based on our discussions with our customers, that it's not only in the short term, but in the longer term, they would like to see us increase our output of virtually all of these components for 5G and all the ROADM components, and not only the ones we make today, but the ones we have in development as well.
Simon Leopold -- Raymond James -- Analyst
Great. Thank you for taking the questions. [Speech Overlap]
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Thanks, Simon. Yes, Simon, we are not just -- this is not a one quarter gain for us, this is a long gain. And, anyway, I hope we answered your question, Simon.
Simon Leopold -- Raymond James -- Analyst
I appreciate that. Thank you very much.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer

Your follow-up question from Tim [Phonetic] Diffely from D.A. Davidson. Tom, your line is now open.
Tom Diffely -- D. A. Davidson -- Analyst
Yes. Hopefully, you can hear me better now.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Perfect.
Tom Diffely -- D. A. Davidson -- Analyst
Oh, good. So, Mary Jane, just quickly wanted to ask another question on the Sherman start-up costs. So right now, the Compound Semi margins were down quite a bit sequentially. If you take out the 9 points from the Sherman's facility, they are still down 300 basis points, 400 basis points sequentially. Just wondering if you could go over the puts and takes there.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Well, first of all, with respect to last quarter, sequentially, we would not have had Sherman in at all. So we only had them in for 22 days. That said -- so, that's one aspect of it. The Compound Semi group also includes the two indium phosphide fabs both Jarfalla and Fremont.
And then finally, I would say that while we are probably seeing a little bit of a flattening on industrial, a little bit of a sequential pick up in industrial, it's -- that's a very rich margin business. I mean, those guys are really, really doing a great job, I think, holding their margin, but it's a little bit tough in a down market to hold it perfectly. I'd say the same thing is true on EUV, where we're starting to see EUV also start to pick up, but after a period of pause. So I think those are probably the factors as indium phosphide component start to be sold, we would then be able to see positive contribution from those factories into the segment.
Tom Diffely -- D. A. Davidson -- Analyst
Okay. So low teens is a good base starting point. And as volumes ramp, you expect to see a nice ramp in the margin as well?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes, I -- exactly. I think the one thing to keep in mind too is, when we talk about the start-up costs being added back, at some point we want to be selling these costs, right? So we also need the margin of those products, which helps us as well on the operating margin.
Tom Diffely -- D. A. Davidson -- Analyst
Okay, good. And then finally, did you disclose the EPS impact of the $50 million revenue hit?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
We didn't. But the way I would tell you to estimate it is, we took a pretty heavy fall through on that probably as much as 50% because we could find that we're all ready to go and then people can't come to work.
Tom Diffely -- D. A. Davidson -- Analyst
Okay, thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Dave Kang from B. Riley FBR. Dave, your line is now open.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Thank you. Good afternoon.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Hi.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Question -- Hi. Questions on 3DS. I was wondering if you can break out 3DS revenue? And I believe you said, Warren doubled sequentially. Just wondering how did Sherman do on a pro forma basis? And what's the mix between North America versus Android customers?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Hey, Dave, as we said, the Sherman facility is not qualified yet. So you need to assume that all revenue for 3D sensing is coming from the Warren Eastern facility, correct.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Got it. And then what's the -- from Warren, what's the mix between North America versus Android?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Well, as I told, Mark, we had no Android revenue yet from Warren.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Got it. And then on the $50 million impact, are you assuming any kind of the supply disruptions for your 3DS?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So with respect to at least -- the $50 million of at least on the corona effect, that we would not necessarily expect to have a 3DS effect actually. As you know, all of our laser diodes and grown [Phonetic] materials in II-VI with the exception of two are actually growing outside of China. They're growing mainly outside of China.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
But then Foxconn cannot produce now. I guess, they're going to be delayed for maybe a few weeks, couple more weeks. I mean, doesn't that impact your 3DS business?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
We can't comment on that.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Okay, fair enough. And then just lastly on silicon carbide. I guess it was 6% last quarter. Now with Finisar, I assume that number will be down. Is it -- what is it now like maybe 3%, 4%, 5%?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So just kind of hold one [Phonetic] second. The silicon carbide, yes, was 3% in the quarter and growing over last quarter, which was about 2%.
Dave Kang -- B. Riley FBR -- Analyst
Got it. Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Jed Dorsheimer from Canaccord Genuity. Jed, your line is now open.
Jed Dorsheimer -- Canaccord Genuity -- Analyst
Hi, thanks for taking my question. I guess first, with respect to the $50 million and sort of the mid-March target for full production. If it were to extend longer, I'm just curious, are there any force majeure clauses in your umbrella policies or insurance policies that we should be aware of that might help to offset? And then I have a follow-up. Thanks.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
So, so far, we've looked at our insurance policies. Obviously, we would need to show actually incurred business interruption financial losses. And if that were to be the case, I'm sure we would find our insurance companies to be cooperative within the balance of our policies we have.
Jed Dorsheimer -- Canaccord Genuity -- Analyst
Is there a way to gauge potential offset or how should we think about that? I mean, I'm sure virus would constitute something that's actually got out of your control. So I'm just curious how we should be thinking about that?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
I think it's -- I don't think there is a way to give you what the insurance offset potentially is. I mean, at this point, while we do think we have a $50 million -- at least a $50 million impact from this, at the end of the day it is going to be gauged on what is actually happening. So I don't think we can estimate insurance proceeds for you. I think more likely than not what the Company would do is actually try and manage expenses in the meantime.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
It's a great question, Jed. It is a very good question. And I'm fortunate to have a great team around me, who are also asking that kind of a question just to be sure that we've covered all the bases. But I want to say that, while that's happening in the backdrop as it should, our top priority is to take care of our people, get the factories up and running, and to find a way to help our customers not skip a beat. That's our first harbor of appeal and we're focused on it.
Jed Dorsheimer -- Canaccord Genuity -- Analyst
Got it. Understood. Thank you. And then my follow-up question, just around silicon carbide, any commentary around capacity expansion? It seems that the industry remains fairly tight. And I'm just curious how you're thinking about capital allocation with respect to that business in particular?
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Jed, I'll take it. We -- 90 days ago, we said that we've secured a new facility to allow us to expand into should provide us with a significant runway, as well as the right characteristics close to our people, very low cost electricity and it will allow us to scale. And we said three times to five times our current capacity inside three years and could be faster, and we'll have it subject for the market.
We have two initiatives under way, one is to allow that capacity expansion to be as short as possible so that we can respond quickly to, one, forecasted increases in demand and the second one is for us to accelerate the pace of the technology improvements that we want to make to get ready for -- know the generation of high-quality 200 millimeter substrates.
Jed Dorsheimer -- Canaccord Genuity -- Analyst
Great, that's helpful and useful. Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Richard Shannon from Craig-Hallum. Richard, your line is now open.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Great, thanks. Thanks for taking my question. Maybe a question on the datacom space and apologize if I missed any detail on the prepared remarks here. But if you can give us a sense of how much of the pick up that you saw was from kind of the mainstream 100-gig modules and components versus 200 and 400? And are we expecting any sort of pick up in the fiscal third quarter? And if not, when do you expect to see a bigger pick up from those higher speed 200 and 400 modules?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
Hi, Richard. This is Giovanni. So as we said in the script, the 100G still represents the largest shareholder of the total addressable market and -- including, of course, our -- the self addressable market. So there was a -- the largest percentage of the group.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Okay. Anyway, Giovanni, you can more characterize the overall size there, is it -- I mean, is 400 and 200, is that 10% or more of the total datacom business today?
Giovanni Barbarossa -- Chief Strategy Officer of II-VI Incorporated and President of Compound Semiconductors
I don't --- we don't report numbers by product lines, as you know, let alone speeds. I think they're growing, they're going fast, but the bulk of the demand is still on 100G. And I think, as I said, we think we are the leader in 200G, and 400G is coming fast and we are ready. And as I said, we are also working on 800G concept and designs to be ready for that as well.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Okay, fair enough, thanks for that. So, follow on question on aerospace and defense. Chuck, I think you mentioned, you think this is returning to more of a growth market and you said you signed a few large contracts. I wonder, if you could characterize or identify any of those? In the past, you've talked about kind of high energy lasers as a key area. I'm wondering if that's fitting within the category of the -- of any of the large contracts you signed?
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Let's see, the -- we will not disclose today the nature of the customer for the large contracts or the application. And I outlined four major areas of investment, directed energy is just beginning and I believe that our latest two acquisitions in combination with our semiconductor laser technology platform is positioning us extremely well and the supply chains of the early adopters of directed energy systems and components. So that's really an exciting growth area at the moment. At the moment, we are making the largest investment, we're making in people for our expansion and then these invested programs is in the aerospace and defense business.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Okay. Thanks for those thoughts. A quick follow-on question for Mary Jane. Mary Jane, do you have any of start-up cost for the Sherman fab built into your guidance for the current quarter?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Can you quantify how much?
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
It's probably in the same regions we're seeing right now -- in the $19 million [Phonetic] sort of range.
Richard Shannon -- Craig-Hallum -- Analyst
Okay, fair enough. That's all from me. Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Paul Silverstein from Cowen. Paul, your line is now open.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
Thanks. I appreciate you all taking the questions, I'll pass as I was dropped a little bit, so I apologize if this came up earlier. With regard to Sherman, I trust from your commentary, you still needs to get qualified. So revenue...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Hey, Paul, good afternoon. This is Chuck. I beg your pardon for interrupting you. But we're receiving everything you're saying as a muffle sound. And we know it you, but we can't really decipher what you're saying.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Could you just start over please?
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
My voice does the same thing, Chuck.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Hey, thanks.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
Sure. I just let you know it's me. With respect to Sherman, I trust from your commentary about still need to finalize qualification that you do not have revenue or much revenue in the March guidance. The question is, as you look out to June and I appreciate it's hard enough to forecast 90 days out. But as Sherman comes on stream, is it possible for you to say how much incremental revenue or to give a range of the respective incremental revenue out of that facility above and beyond what you're already doing? That's the first question.
The second question is, did you have any 10% customers? And in connection with that, can you say even if it wasn't 10%, given all the focus and the concern over the past year or two about Huawei, how big was Huawei for the combined company, II-VI plus Finisar as well as for II-VI proper? And Chuck, I heard your response to previous question that you are not concerned with respect to inventory build up by China. I assume that extends specifically to Huawei as well. But I'm wondering if you have any -- if you can share with us the type of insight on you have in terms of what your customers are up to, to the extent you can or you willing?
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Okay. There's a lot of questions in there, Paul. Thanks for your questions. Number one, on the June quarter for 3D sensing, we're not going to be able to discuss what we think the likely outcome is for revenue in the fourth quarter [Speech Overlap] that'll really be a subject of commercial discussions. So we can't say that today. We can rest of that, [Phonetic] it was about -- whether or not we have any 10% customers.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Yes. When the last check that we did, the Company did not -- the combined company does not have any 10% customer. Obviously, as the revenue finalizes for the year, we will assess that with the June 30 revenue, but so far we do not.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Yes. Sorry, please go ahead.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
Huawei...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
With regard to -- let me also say that, we reported that 14% of our revenues came from sales in China in total as a company. So that's another data point. And regarding our direct sales to Chinese customers, because that was a question I thought I was asked and the answer I gave was, with regard to our direct sales to customers in China, to my knowledge, the order pattern is consistent with the market demands. And what I believe we've come to understand is the normal pattern of buying both for production and for inventory, and that's with regard to our sales directly to our customers in China.
To what extent any other customers that we have, that's a different story, and it's just harder for us to be able to charging [Phonetic] to make comments on. We think it's just an ordinary course of our sales of being consumed in China. And my discussion was not about Huawei, it was about all of our customers in China, Paul.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
Understood. Guys, can I squeeze in one last one? From the face of your comments or in your numbers, it sounds like there has been a meaningful improvement across the board or across most of the board with respect your products and customer markets, and your commentary is very good. Let me ask you a general question about visibility. It sounds like visibility is better. Again, I appreciate, it's hard to forecast. And I know you're not guiding beyond the quarter. But the data points you all are looking [Phonetic] at, it sounds like that suggests that the improvement you're seeing is of a more secular long tailed nature as opposed to just a quarter or two, that's the question.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
Well...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
We have a virus now and that virus is going to interrupt, we think, for us and, quite honestly, for everybody that's -- that walks along the same path. And it's going to take us a little bit of time to sort that out, Paul. And I think beyond that is before that came -- I want to reiterate, before that came, our 12/31 order book that we had, had a very strong coverage for the third quarter.
Mary Jane Raymond -- Chief Financial Officer
I would say, in the analysis that we did in the quarter that we have just reported, there -- especially on the drivers that were stronger than we maybe anticipated actually and how we set the guidance, the uptick does not seem to be limited to this quarter. But given that a few of them are just starting, let's take an easier one, the resumption of some sequential growth in industrial, we'd like to see it for a couple of quarters to say it's really a trend, but it does not, what we saw, we spent a lot of time on to be sure it was not one-time.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Yes.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
All right. It presume...
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Sorry, Paul, go ahead.
Paul Silverstein -- Cowen -- Analyst
I was just going to say, presumably, unless coronavirus is the black plague that has a transitory event in that two cell [Phonetic] paths. So I recognize your guidance -- so, but -- go on, Chuck, I'm sorry.
Vincent D. Mattera -- Chief Executive Officer
Thanks a lot. So I think we tried to lay out the situation here for the quarter as best as we can with all the information we have in the hand today. And our task is to get back to work and harness all the enthusiasm and power of the people of this Company, get them back to work safely and keep it that way. And we have a whole host of customers that are interested in the best that we can do for them, and that's what we're out to do.
