Balance Sheet

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $283 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, long-term debt totaled approximately $466 million, and working capital was approximately $571 million.

Share Repurchase

During the fourth quarter, Diodes returned approximately $11.0 million of cash to shareholders by repurchasing approximately 466,010 shares of common stock under its previously announced share repurchase program.

The results announced today are preliminary, as they are subject to the Company finalizing its closing procedures and customary quarterly review by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. As such, these results are subject to revision until the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2015.

Business Outlook

Dr. Lu concluded, “For the first quarter of 2016, we expect revenue to range between $214 million and $235 million, or flat to up 10 percent sequentially, including the first full quarter of revenue from Pericom. We expect non-GAAP gross margin to be 30.0 percent, plus or minus 2 percent. Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be approximately 25.5 percent of revenue, plus or minus 1 percent. We expect interest expense to be approximately $3.4 million and our income tax rate to be 28 percent, plus or minus 3 percent. Shares used to calculate diluted EPS for the first quarter are anticipated to be approximately 49.5 million.” Note that purchase accounting adjustments related to Pericom and previous acquisitions of $7.3 million after tax are not included in these non-GAAP estimates.
