Commenting on the results, Gary Yu, President and CEO of Diodes, stated, “Our third quarter revenue reached record levels coupled with an over 500-basis point year-over-year increase in gross margin to 36.1%, driving significant expansion in non-GAAP earnings. Global POS was also a record in the quarter, increasing more than 30% year-over-year. Our sequential revenue growth of more than 19% was primarily driven by record automotive revenue from continued market share gains, stronger demand across broad industrial applications, and sustained momentum in AI ecosystem applications that contributed to record revenue in the computing market. Underpinning this growth is the benefit of the targeted investments we made in capacity expansion over the past year coming online. The resulting increase in loading at our manufacturing facilities also benefited gross margin along with product mix and pricing improvements.
“Based on our current projections for continued growth in the fourth quarter, we expect full year revenue to increase approximately 30% over 2025 at the mid-point. In addition to being well above our historical CAGR of 10%, we continue to see strong demand momentum resulting from our new product initiatives, market share gains as well as increasing content at customers. This anticipated sequential growth is once again coupled with further non-GAAP gross margin expansion of 80 basis points sequentially to 37.0% at the mid-point and increasing earnings leverage as well as strong cash flow generation.”
Third Quarter 2026
Revenue for third quarter 2026 was $532.6 million, an increase of 35.8% from the $392.2 million in the third quarter 2025 and 19.5% over the $445.5 million in the second quarter 2026.
GAAP gross profit for the third quarter 2026 was $192.5 million, or 36.1% of revenue, compared to $120.5 million, or 30.7% of revenue in the third quarter 2025 and $147.6 million, or 33.1% of revenue, in the prior quarter. Non-GAAP gross profit was $192.9 million and non-GAAP gross profit margin was 36.2%, which excluded $0.4 million of inventory accounting associated with the acquisition of ElevATE Semiconductor.
GAAP operating expenses for third quarter 2026 were $129.1 million, or 24.2% of revenue, and on a non-GAAP basis were $122.1 million, or 22.9% of revenue, which excludes $5.2 million acquisition-related intangible asset cost and $1.8 million of acquisition-related costs. GAAP operating expenses in the third quarter 2025 were $108.9 million, or 27.8% of revenue and $114.3 million, or 25.6% of revenue in the second quarter 2026.
Third quarter 2026 GAAP net income was $43.7 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income in the third quarter 2025 of $14.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, and GAAP net income in the prior quarter of $46.6 million, or $1.00 per diluted share.
Third quarter 2026 non-GAAP adjusted net income was $54.5 million, or $1.18 per diluted share, which excluded, net of tax, a $7.9 million unrealized loss on investments, $4.2 million of acquisition-related intangible asset amortization cost, $3.0 million gain on disposal of a subsidiary, $1.4 million of acquisition-related costs and $0.3 million of acquisition-related inventory amortization cost. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted net income of $17.2 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2025 and $32.5 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, in the prior quarter.

(See the reconciliation tables of GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted net income near the end of this release for further details.)
Included in third quarter 2026 GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted net income was approximately $7.4 million, net of tax, non-cash share-based compensation expense. Excluding share-based compensation expense, GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) and non-GAAP adjusted EPS would have increased by $0.16 per share for the third quarter 2026, compared to $0.12 for the third quarter 2025 and $0.19 per share in the prior quarter.
EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure), which represents earnings before net interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization, in the third quarter 2026 was $89.7 million, or 16.8% of revenue, compared to $46.6 million, or 11.9% of revenue, in the third quarter 2025 and $83.5 million, or 18.7% of revenue, in the prior quarter. For a reconciliation of GAAP net income to EBITDA, see the table near the end of this release for further details.
For the third quarter 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $97.2 million. Net cash flow was positive $134.1 million, which includes approximately $35 million for the stock buyback program. Free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) was $43.9 million, which includes $53.2 million of capital expenditures.
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had approximately $578 million in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments. Total debt (including long-term and short-term) amounted to approximately $405 million (including $364.9 million from 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes, net of issuance costs) and working capital was approximately $1.1 billion.
The results announced today are preliminary and unaudited, as they are subject to the Company finalizing its closing procedures and completion of the quarterly review by its independent registered public accounting firm. As such, these results are subject to revision until the Company files its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2026.
Business Outlook
Gary Yu further commented, “For the fourth quarter of 2026, we expect to extend our strong growth momentum with revenue expected to increase to approximately $550 million, plus or minus 3%, representing a 40.4% increase year-over-year and a 3.2% increase sequentially at the mid-point. Non-GAAP gross margin is expected to expand to 37.0%, plus or minus 1%. Non-GAAP adjusted EPS is expected to be $1.35, plus or minus $0.10.”
A reconciliation of our forward-looking non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not provided because such items cannot be reasonably calculated without unreasonable efforts due to the unpredictability of the amounts and timing of events affecting the items we exclude, including acquisition-related intangible asset costs, inventory step-up, board member/officer retirements, acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs, gain/loss on investment, non-cash mark-to-market investment adjustments, impairment of equity investment, and other charges.

Note: Included in GAAP net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income was approximately $15.0 million, net of tax, non-cash share-based compensation expense. Excluding share-based compensation expense, both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share would have improved by $0.32 per share. |

ADJUSTED NET INCOME AND ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company’s financial statements present net income and earnings per share that are calculated using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s management makes adjustments to the GAAP measures that it believes are necessary to allow investors and other readers of the Company’s financial releases to view the Company’s operating results as viewed by the Company’s management, board of directors and research analysts in the semiconductor industry. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with, and should not be considered alternatives or necessarily superior to, GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures, even if they have similar names. The explanation of the adjustments made in the table above, are set forth below:
Detail of non-GAAP adjustments
Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets – The Company excluded this item, including amortization of developed technologies and customer relationships. The fair value of the acquisition-related intangible assets is amortized using straight-line methods which approximate the proportion of future cash flows estimated to be generated each period over the estimated useful life of the applicable assets. The Company believes that exclusion of this item is appropriate because a significant portion of the purchase price for its acquisitions was allocated to the intangible assets that have short lives and exclusion of the amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both the Company’s newly acquired and long-held businesses. In addition, the Company excluded this item because there is significant variability and unpredictability among companies with respect to this expense.
Amortization of acquisition-related inventories – The Company excluded the inventory valuation adjustment related to purchase accounting associated with the acquisition. This adjustment represents the incremental cost of inventory resulting from the fair value step-up required under acquisition accounting and is excluded from non-GAAP results. The Company believes that exclusion of this item is appropriate because it is directly attributable to the acquisition and is not considered part of ongoing operations.
Board member/Officer retirement – The Company excluded costs related to (1) the retirement of a board member, these costs represent cash payments and the accelerated vesting of previously issued stock awards, (2) the retirement of an officer, these costs represent cash payments and the accelerated vesting of previously issued stock awards. The Company believes it is appropriate to exclude these costs since they don’t represent ongoing operating expenses and will present investors with a more accurate indication of our continuing operations.
Unrealized (gain) loss on investments – The Company excluded unrealized gains and losses on various investments, as well as impairment and mark-to-market adjustments on equity investments. The Company believes these amounts are not reflective on the ongoing operations of the Company and exclusion of these items, provides investors an enhanced view of the Company’s operating results.
Acquisition related costs – The Company excluded expenses associated with previous acquisitions of that typically consist of advisory, legal and other professional and consulting fees. These costs were expensed as they were incurred and as services were received, and in which the corresponding tax adjustments were made for the non-deductible portions of these expenses. The Company believes the exclusion of the acquisition-related costs provides investors with a more accurate reflection of costs likely to be incurred in the absence of an unusual event such as an acquisition and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that may not reflect such costs.
(Gain) on disposal of subsidiary – The Company excluded the gain on the disposal of a subsidiary. The Company believes this is not reflective of the ongoing operations and exclusion of this item provides investors an enhanced view of the Company’s operating results.
Restructuring charges – The Company recorded restructuring charges related to various locations. These restructuring charges are excluded from management’s assessment of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes the exclusion of the restructuring charges provides investors an enhanced view of the cost structure of the Company’s operations and facilitates comparisons with the results of other periods that may not reflect such charges or may reflect different levels of such charges.
CASH FLOW ITEMS
Free cash flow (FCF) (Non-GAAP)
FCF for the third quarter of 2026 is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash flow from operations. For the third quarter of 2026, FCF was $43.9 million, which represents the cash and cash equivalents that we are able to generate after taking into account cash outlays required to maintain or expand property, plant and equipment. FCF is important because it allows us to pursue opportunities to develop new products, make acquisitions and reduce debt.
CONSOLIDATED RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME TO EBITDA
EBITDA represents earnings before net interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization. Management believes EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, such as financial institutions in extending credit, in evaluating companies in our industry and provides further clarity on our profitability. In addition, management uses EBITDA, along with other GAAP and non-GAAP measures, in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. The calculation of EBITDA generally eliminates the effects of financing, operating in different income tax jurisdictions, and accounting effects of capital spending, including the impact of our asset base, which can differ depending on the book value of assets and the accounting methods used to compute depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, and when analyzing our operating performance, investors should use EBITDA in addition to, and not as an alternative for, income from operations and net income, each as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. For example, our EBITDA takes into account all net interest expense, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization without taking into account any amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest. Furthermore, EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA (in thousands, unaudited):
