## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 45.0×** (5-yr avg 29.7×, 3-yr avg 38.6×). Diodes Incorporated trades at 45.0× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 29.7×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Technology median in the September 2026 study was 32.1×. Forward P/E is 15.2×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.30**. A PEG of 0.30 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 2.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 2.4×.
- **Price / book: 2.0×**. The shares trade at 2.0× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.7%** (5-yr avg 4.0%). Free cash flow equals 3.7% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 4.0%.
- **Earnings yield: 2.2%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.2% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Gross margin: 31.7%**. Diodes Incorporated keeps 31.7% of revenue after the direct cost of what it sells.
- **Operating margin: 4.8%**. 4.8% of revenue is left after running the business, which leaves little cushion in a downturn.
- **Net margin: 4.5%**. 4.5% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 3.5%**. 3.5% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on invested capital: 4.0%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 4.0%: close to or below the cost of capital, so growth may not create value.

- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 13.0%** (3-yr -9.5%/yr, 5-yr 3.8%/yr). Revenue grew 13.0% over the last year, against 3.8% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 50.5%** (3-yr -41.7%/yr, 5-yr -5.3%/yr). Earnings per share rose 50.5%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): -8.8%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at -8.8% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 0.01**. Debt is 0.01 times equity: a conservative balance sheet.
- **Current ratio: 3.32** (quick 3.32). Current assets cover the next year's liabilities 3.32 times.
