Central News Agency (Reporter Chang Chien-Chung, Hsinchu 12th) IC design firms PixArt Imaging and ASMedia Technology have differing outlooks for their Q2 operations. PixArt Imaging expects its Q2 revenue to increase by over 10% quarter-on-quarter, while ASMedia Technology anticipates a conservative outlook for Q2 and the second half of the year due to rising memory prices and tight CPU supply affecting motherboard client demand.
PixArt Imaging and ASMedia Technology held online investor conferences today to discuss their Q1 operating results and future outlook. PixArt Imaging's Q1 revenue declined to NT$2.209 billion, a 3.4% quarter-on-quarter decrease, due to seasonal factors and fewer working days.
With changes in product mix and higher-than-expected revenue from customer entrusted design (NRE), PixArt Imaging's Q1 gross profit margin rose to 59.5%, a 1 percentage point increase from Q4 2025. Net profit attributable to the parent company was NT$390 million, with earnings per share of NT$2.65.
PixArt Imaging stated that overall demand in Q2 is good. Driven by demand in the e-sports market, mouse chip performance in Q2 is expected to increase by over 10% quarter-on-quarter. Game console sensor product performance will grow by double-digit levels, and other products in security and unmanned vehicle demand will grow by over 10%. Overall Q2 performance has a chance to grow by over 10%, with a gross profit margin of approximately 58% to 59%.
PixArt Imaging noted that wafer foundry and packaging and testing costs have increased due to rising raw material and costs. The company continues to communicate with customers and will adjust product prices based on customer, market, and product conditions to ensure stable gross profit margins.
ASMedia Technology's Q1 revenue was NT$3.498 billion, roughly on par with Q4 2025, as clients continued their strategy to expand market share. Gross profit margin was 50.8%, a 0.7 percentage point decrease from Q4 2025. Net profit after tax was NT$1.85 billion, a 24% quarter-on-quarter increase, with earnings per share of NT$24.85.
ASMedia Technology stated that due to rising memory prices and tight CPU supply, motherboard client demand is expected to decline in Q2 and potentially extend into the second half of the year, estimated to be a 15% to 20% decline. This could impact ASMedia Technology's operating performance, leading to a conservative outlook for Q2 and the second half of the year. The company will accelerate the expansion of its own product business to cope. (Edited by Lin Chia-Hsien) 1150512
