Q1 2026 was its strongest quarter ever: revenue NT$159.4 billion (up 36 percent), record 37 percent gross margin, record 17.8 percent operating margin, after-tax net profit up 101 percent to NT$20.55 billion, EPS NT$7.91. July 2026 monthly revenue alone was NT$67.07 billion. Products are co-developed with NVIDIA: 800 VDC In-Row 660 kW power racks carrying 480 kW embedded battery backup at up to 98 percent AC-DC efficiency, and a 2.4 MW In-Row Coolant Distribution Unit, both shown at GTC 2026, plus a microgrid on newly developed solid state transformers and solid oxide fuel cells with all-in-one energy storage for step loads. At COMPUTEX 2026 it unveiled a prefabricated modular AI data center integrating 800 VDC in-row power and a 3 MW liquid cooling system, cutting construction time 60 percent. The roadmap is dated: HVDC plus or minus 400 V small-volume shipment from H2 2026 with 800 V in 2027, SOFC sampling in 2026 and mass production targeted 2027. Capex grows more than 10 percent from 2025's NT$46.1 billion. The demand base is the four major CSPs, whose combined capex is projected to rise from about USD 410 billion in 2025 to about USD 670 billion in 2026.
