Revenue increased three percent year-over-year to $108.3 million; cash flow from operations was $20.0 million
Power Integrations (NASDAQ: POWI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Net revenue for the first quarter was $108.3 million, up five percent from the prior quarter and up three percent from the first quarter of 2025. GAAP net income for the first quarter was $3.3 million or $0.06 per diluted share compared to $0.24 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $0.15 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2025. Cash flow from operations for the first quarter was $20.0 million.
In addition to its GAAP results, the company provided non-GAAP measures that exclude stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, a restructuring charge associated with previously announced workforce reductions and the tax effects of these items. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $13.9 million or $0.25 per diluted share compared to $0.23 per diluted share in the prior quarter and $0.31 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2025. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial results and outlook is included with the tables accompanying this press release.
Power Integrations CEO Jen Lloyd commented: "Q1 was a good quarter for Power Integrations as we saw improved market demand while remaining focused on delivering innovative solutions based on our customers' needs. Our industrial revenue grew 23 percent year-over-year driven by a breadth of applications including renewable energy, battery storage, home automation and automotive."
Dr. Lloyd continued: "The momentum in our industrial business reflects our strategic focus on markets where our high-voltage technologies help customers solve the most pressing challenges in power. We continue to see confirmation that EVs and AI data centers not only need innovative solutions like our PowiGaN™ technology but also—by increasing pressure on the power grid—drive growth in renewables, battery storage and DC transmission, where our gate‑driver products excel. We are orienting our strategy and our R&D pipeline around these highly attractive opportunities."
Power Integrations paid a dividend of $0.215 per share on March 31, 2026. A dividend of $0.215 per share will be paid on June 30, 2026, to stockholders of record as of May 29, 2026.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the company's consolidated financial statements, which are presented according to GAAP, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial information that excludes stock-based compensation expenses recorded under ASC 718-10, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, a restructuring charge associated with workforce reductions implemented in the first quarter, and the tax effects of these items. The company uses these measures in its financial and operational decision-making and, with respect to non-GAAP operating income, in setting performance targets for compensation purposes. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures offer important analytical tools to help investors understand its operating results, and to facilitate comparability with the results of companies that provide similar measures. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial information. For example, stock-based compensation is an important component of the company's compensation mix and will continue to result in significant expenses in the company's GAAP results for the foreseeable future but is not reflected in the non-GAAP measures. Also, other companies, including companies in Power Integrations' industry, may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures are attached to this press release.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or the company's future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward looking statements because they contain words such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "going to," "could," "intends," "target," "projects," "contemplates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern the company's expectations, strategy, priorities, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to, the company's guidance and outlook for the second quarter of 2026, the trends and assumptions underlying such guidance and outlook, and the company's expectations regarding its upcoming dividend, including the timing and amount of such dividend. The company's expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including the company's ability to forecast its performance; changes in trade policies, in particular the escalation and imposition of new and higher tariffs, which could reduce demand for end products that incorporate our integrated circuits and/or place pressure on our prices as our customers seek to offset the impact of increased tariffs on their own products; the company's ability to supply products and its ability to conduct other aspects of its business, such as competing for new design wins; changes in global economic and geopolitical conditions, including such factors as inflation, armed conflicts and trade negotiations, which may impact the level of demand for the company's products; potential changes and shifts in customer demand away from end products that utilize the company's integrated circuits to end products that do not incorporate the company's products; the effects of competition, which may cause the company's revenue to decrease or cause the company to decrease its selling prices for its products; unforeseen costs and expenses; and unfavorable fluctuations in component costs or operating expenses resulting from changes in commodity prices and/or exchange rates; and product development delays and defects and market acceptance of the new products. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC. The forward-looking statements in this release are based on information available to the company as of the date hereof and the company disclaims any obligation to update or alter its forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required by law.
