Diodes continued to experience demand improvements across all target markets and geographies, Chief Executive Gary Yu said. There was particular strength in the computing market, driven by AI server-related applications, Yu said.

The automotive and industrial markets also improved, and Diodes realized improvements in its gross margins because its product mix benefited from the growth in automotive, he said.
