(Central News Agency reporter Wu Chia-Hao, Taipei 12th) Contract manufacturer Compal today announced its Q1 2026 financial report. Benefiting from the non-personal computer (PC) ratio, including servers, rising to 35%, net profit attributable to parent company owners reached NT$1.967 billion, a 40% quarter-on-quarter increase and 10% year-on-year decrease; earnings per share (EPS) was NT$0.45.
In addition, Compal today announced the implementation of a stock buyback, planning to repurchase 100 million common shares from the centralized trading market from May 13 to July 10 this year, accounting for 2.27% of the total issued shares. The repurchase price range is NT$21.56 to NT$44.43; if the stock price falls below the lower limit of the price range, repurchases will continue.
Compal's consolidated revenue for Q1 reached NT$201.304 billion, a 5% quarter-on-quarter increase and 1% year-on-year increase, driven by the continuous growth of non-PC businesses such as wireless communication products and artificial intelligence (AI) servers. The revenue share of non-PC businesses increased from 29% in Q4 last year to 35% in Q1 this year, steadily moving towards the annual target of 40% revenue share.
In terms of profitability, affected by rising component prices and declining shipments of computer-related products, the gross profit margin for Q1 was 5.3%, a 0.5 percentage point decrease quarter-on-quarter but a 0.1 percentage point increase year-on-year. With stable control over operating expenses, Q1 operating profit was NT$2.644 billion, flat compared to Q4 last year, and a 2% year-on-year decrease.
Regarding non-operating performance, Compal's Q1 benefited from interest income and exchange gains, contributing NT$447 million from non-operating activities, turning positive from a negative in Q4 last year. (Editor: Pan Yi-Ching) 1150512
