HSINCHU, Taiwan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 14, 2026-- 

SemiLEDs Corporation $(LEDS)$, "SemiLEDs" or the "Company," a developer and manufacturer of LED chips and LED components, today announced its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, ended February 28, 2026.

Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $1.1 million, compared to $2.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. GAAP net loss attributable to SemiLEDs stockholders for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $603 thousand, or $(0.07) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $742 thousand, or $(0.09) per diluted share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

GAAP gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was 1%, compared to 1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Operating margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was negative 79%, compared with negative 39% for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $4.0 million at February 28, 2026, compared to $2.9 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

Our revenue was lower in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2026, due to the absence of any buy-sell purchase orders of equipment. We anticipate buy-sell purchase orders in the second half of fiscal 2026.
