Financial Highlights:

  • Q325 consolidated revenue US$146.14 million, compared with US$136.25 million in the year-ago quarter
  • Q325 consolidated net income US$27.24 million; Basic and Fully diluted after-tax EPS US$0.35 (NT$10.45) and US$0.35 (NT$10.43), respectively

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Parade Technologies, Ltd. (Taipei Exchange: 4966.TWO), a leading high-speed interface IC supplier, today announced financial results for the third quarter fiscal year 2025 ended September 30, 2025, and provided guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Consolidated revenue was US$146.14 million and consolidated net income was US$27.24 million. Basic and fully diluted after-tax earnings per share (“EPS”) were US$0.35 (NT$10.45) and US$0.35 (NT$10.43), respectively. These results compared to consolidated revenue US$136.25 million and consolidated net income of US$23.58 million, or US$0.30 (NT$9.57) and US$0.30 (NT$9.54) per basic and fully diluted share, in the year-ago quarter.

In US dollars, the third quarter of 2025 consolidated revenue increased 9.47% sequentially and was up 7.26% year-over-year.

The gross profit in the third quarter of 2025 was US$62.11 million, representing an increase of 7.93% from the previous quarter and an increase of 7.19% compared to the same quarter of last year.

On September 3, 2025, Parade introduced the availability of four new PCIe Gen6 (64GT/s) linear redrivers for server, storage and high performance AI scale-up Data Center cabling solutions. With industry leading linearity, the PCIe Gen6 family of redrivers provide programmable EQ boosts up to 18dB, while operating from a single supply. The PS8594/PS8598/PS8596 devices utilize Parade Speed Migration Path (PSMP) methodology – matching the Intel PCIe 6.0 Standard Ball Map – for easier highspeed routing and evaluation and between PCIe retimers and Parade Linear redrivers. Fully compatible with all previous PCIe specifications, the PS859X series is an excellent choice for motherboard, backplane, AIC and cable applications.

On September 17, 2025, Parade announced the availability of the PS8780 USB4 Version 2 (USB4v2) Gen 4 / TBT5 / DP 2.1 Alt Mode bi-directional linear redriver for active cable and NB/PC/WS system applications. It is pin compatible with the PS8778 USB4 Gen 3 / TBT4 / DP 2.1 Alt Mode bi-directional linear redriver. The PS8780 supports USB4v2 up to Gen 4×2 or 2x 40Gbps symmetric and 120Gbps asymmetric modes, TBT5 2×41.25Gbps, and DP 2.1 Alt Mode UHBR20 link rates. It implements USB4, USB 3.2 and DP 2.1a power management including DP 2.1a Advanced Link Power Management (ALPM). Its low power design and Modern Standby support greatly extend battery life for mobile devices and minimize power consumption for active cables. PS8780 comes in a very small package, ideal for cables or space constrained designs.

Based on current business outlook, Parade is providing the following guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025:

  • Revenue: US$123.50 ~136.50 Million
  • Gross Margin: 42% ~46%
  • Operating Expense: US$33.0 ~36.0 Million

The financial figures detailed above for the third quarter of 2025 have been reviewed by independent accountants.
