The gains were driven by increasing customer capacity requirements in semiconductor assembly, with gross margin holding at a healthy 49.6% and non-GAAP operating margin reaching 12.6%. The results build on a broader recovery across semiconductor equipment spending that has been gaining momentum heading into 2026. Interim CEO and CFO Lester Wong pointed to the company's expanding footprint in Power Semiconductor, Advanced Dispense, and Advanced Packaging technologies as key differentiators beyond traditional wire bonding. Looking ahead, management guided fiscal Q2 revenue to approximately $230 million, plus or minus $10 million, with non-GAAP diluted EPS of roughly $0.67, suggesting accelerating demand across automotive, compute, memory, and communications end markets. The strong forward outlook arrives even as some insiders trimmed positions following the report.

Key Takeaways

  • • Growing customer near-term capacity requirements
  • • Sequential revenue growth from $177.6M to $199.6M
  • • Gross margin of 49.6%
  • • Non-GAAP operating margin improvement to 12.6% from 6.6% in prior quarter
