Elan Microelectronics pursues dual-track PC strategy as AI, ADAS, drone lines ramp up
What happened
Elan Microelectronics posted Q3 2026 revenue of NT$2.22 billion (approx. US$67.8 million), down 30.7% quarter-over-quarter and 33.1% year-over-year, due to a weak PC peak season. Gross margin fell 2.7 percentage points quarter-over-quarter to 44.7%, while operating profit dropped 57.5% quarter-over-quarter to NT$296 million (US$9.1 million). The source states the slump stemmed from H1 order pull-forwards, client inventory digestion, supply mismatches, and rising module costs with passive components, PCBs, and packaging. By revenue contribution, touch products accounted for 73%, non-touch 13%, and emerging AI lines 14%.
