SemiLEDs’ quarterly revenue more than halves
For its fiscal second-quarter 2026 (to end-February), LED chip and component maker SemiLEDs Corp of Hsinchu, Taiwan has reported revenue of $1.064m, more than halving from $2.57m last quarter and down from $10.87m a year ago, due to the absence of any buy–sell purchase orders of equipment (which were $9.4m a year ago).
Gross margin was 1%, level with last quarter.
Operating expenses have been cut further, from $1.03m last quarter to $0.85m.
Net loss has hence been cut, from $742,000 ($0.09 per diluted share) to $603,000 ($0.07 per diluted share).
During the quarter, cash and cash equivalents rose from $2.9m to $4m.
SemiLEDs says that it anticipates buy–sell purchase orders in fiscal second half 2026 (to end-May).
