Positioning

Himax core business is display driver ICs, which sits outside this registry scope; what belongs here is two AI vectors. First, WiseEye ultralow-power always-on AI sensing, a total solution integrating its own AI processor, CMOS image sensor and algorithms, which is the shipping product with a named-brand design win: a leading global brand launched a smart glasses product powered by WiseEye, disclosed at Q2 2026 results, and Himax is one of very few companies holding both ultralow-power AI sensing and microdisplay, the two building blocks for smart glasses. Second, wafer-level optics for co-packaged optics: Gen 1 shipping in small quantities in H2 2026 and Gen 2 nearing the end of customer validation for AI data centers, plus a 5.36 percent stake in FOCI valued at approximately USD 156 million. Group FY2025 revenue was USD 832.2 million with EPS of USD 0.25; Q1 2026 revenue USD 199.0 million and Q2 2026 USD 227.4 million, both above guidance. The CPO product is small-quantity shipping with no CPO revenue broken out; WiseEye is the more mature vector, scored here as the primary AI Core placement.
