“AOS delivered another quarter of outstanding execution, breaking revenue records both on a quarterly and annual basis.

During fiscal year 2018, we dedicated our efforts to enhance demand creation and expand capacity. I am pleased to announce that the critical investments and heavy lifting of our internal capacity expansion are now largely behind us,” stated Dr. Mike Chang, chairman and CEO of the company. “As we entered fiscal year 2019 with stronger and more diverse product portfolio, increased capacity and enhanced customer partnerships, we are optimistic that our investments in the past year will enable us to capitalize on the next phase of accelerated growth. We remain keenly focused on executing our longer term strategies.”
