Gross profit for the quarter totaled US$52.63 million, down 15.27% from the prior quarter and 2.11% compared with the same period a year earlier. The quarterly results indicate softer demand conditions toward the end of the year, although the company maintained profitability.

New Automotive Display Solution
During the quarter, Parade introduced the TC1316V, described as the world’s first fully integrated AEC-Q100-qualified embedded DisplayPort (eDP) Touch with Tcon Embedded Driver (TTED) device. The new solution is designed for next-generation automotive cockpit LCD displays that demand higher resolutions and faster refresh rates.
The TC1316V combines the company’s touchscreen technology with its established eDP timing controller (Tcon), in-cell, and high-speed signal technologies. The integrated approach is intended to deliver improved picture quality, responsive touch performance, and lower power consumption for automotive applications.
Built on the company’s TrueTouch™ technology and experience shipping more than one billion touch devices, the new IC also incorporates advanced signal processing and electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression. These features are designed to ensure reliable touch functionality in the demanding electrical environment of modern vehicles.

Based on its current business outlook, Parade provided guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2026:
- Revenue: US$119.75 million to US$132.25 million
