Himax Technologies stock (US43289P1066) was last at USD 14.85 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026, with a 0.95 percent daily gain and a market capitalization of USD 2.6 billion. The company is scheduled to discuss its third-quarter 2026 results on November 5, 2026, giving the next earnings checkpoint a firm date.

November 5 sets the checkpoint

According to Markets Insider on October 5, 2026, Himax will hold the conference call at 8:00 a.m. EST to discuss its third-quarter results. The timing places the November report alongside a market test of whether automotive demand can extend the improvement seen in the second quarter.

For Q3 2026, the company guided revenue to increase 7 percent to 11 percent sequentially and gross margin to reach 34 percent, according to ScanX. The range is narrower than the 14.2 percent sequential revenue increase reported for Q2, so revenue delivery and margin conversion will be the key figures in the next update.

Q2 growth reset the baseline

Himax reported Q2 2026 revenue of USD 227.4 million, up 14.2 percent from the prior quarter and 5.9 percent from the year-earlier period, according to ScanX in its Q2 2026 results coverage. Gross margin reached 33.1 percent, up from 30.4 percent in Q1, while diluted ADS earnings reached 11.4 cents.

The earnings mix also improved sequentially. Net profit rose to USD 19.9 million from USD 8.0 million in Q1, while operating income reached USD 24.6 million and the operating margin rose to 10.8 percent, according to ScanX. That combination makes margin discipline as important as sales growth when the November report arrives.

Consensus stays below the stock

MarketBeat reports a Hold consensus from three analysts and an average price target of USD 8.00. The target sits below the October 6 Nasdaq price of USD 14.85, creating a cautious valuation counterweight to the improving Q2 operating figures, while the stock's 52-week range remains USD 6.85 to USD 25.09.

Himax stock holds above USD 14

Himax Technologies stock was last at USD 14.85 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026, with volume of 994,086 shares. The next report will show whether the Q3 guidance range of 7 percent to 11 percent sequential revenue growth can support the recent operating recovery.
