Himax Technologies, Inc. functions as a fabless semiconductor firm, delivering advanced display processing and imaging technologies across a global operational footprint that includes China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Korea, Japan, Europe, and the United States. The company's business activities are categorized into two main divisions: Driver Integrated Circuits (ICs) and Non-Driver offerings. Within its Driver IC segment, Himax engineers and supplies display driver ICs alongside their crucial timing controllers. These components are vital for a vast array of electronic displays, such as those found in televisions, personal computers (laptops and monitors), mobile communication devices (smartphones and tablets), automotive systems (for vehicles and navigation), digital cameras, virtual reality devices, and various other consumer electronics. Beyond its display driver solutions, Himax's Non-Driver Products portfolio presents a diverse range of technological innovations. This includes controller chips for touch-sensitive displays, comprehensive single-chip solutions integrating in-cell touch with display driver capabilities (TDDI), and ICs for managing light-emitting diodes and power. Furthermore, Himax develops liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) microdisplays, which are fundamental for augmented reality (AR) applications and head-up display systems in the automotive sector. This non-driver division also provides sophisticated complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors and wafer-level optical components. These are essential for cutting-edge technologies like augmented reality, advanced 3D sensing, and ultra-low power artificial intelligence (AI) image sensing. Their broad utility extends to numerous applications, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, televisions, PC cameras, automobiles, security systems, medical devices, smart home appliances, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Himax markets its display drivers and related display products primarily to panel manufacturers, authorized agents or distributors, module assembly facilities, and integration houses. Conversely, its specialized non-driver products are supplied to producers of camera modules, optical engine developers, and television system manufacturers. Established in 2001, Himax Technologies, Inc. maintains its corporate headquarters in Tainan City, Taiwan.

Key Metrics

Current Yield

2.16%

At the Oct 30, 2026 price

The annual dividend as a percentage of the share price. A 3% yield is about $3 of dividends a year for every $100 invested at today's price.

Annualized Dividend

$0.2520

Declared May 07, 2026

The latest declared regular dividend scaled to a full year by how often it's paid (for semi-annual payers, the latest two payments), adjusted for stock splits. A $0.25 quarterly dividend annualizes to $1.00. Special dividends are excluded.

Frequency

A Annual

How often the dividend is paid, read from the dates of recent payments: Q = quarterly (4x a year), M = monthly, S = semi-annual, A = annual.

RSI (14)

39

As of Oct 30, 2026

Relative Strength Index (0-100), a price-momentum gauge. Above 70 is often called 'overbought', below 30 'oversold'. A technical signal, not a dividend metric.

52-Week Range

$6.93 – $24.19

Closes through Oct 23, 2026

The lowest and highest price over the past year, showing where today's price sits in its recent range.

Payout Ratio (TTM)

183.22%

12 months to Jun 30, 2026 (Q2 FY2026)

The share of earnings paid out as dividends over the trailing twelve months (TTM): dividends paid divided by net income across the company's four most recent reported quarters, dated by the latest quarter end. A fiscal-year tag such as FY2025 means only annual figures were available. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earned. It shows n/a for funds and when net income over the period was negative; for REITs and BDCs it is marked EPS-based, since they are judged on FFO/AFFO or net investment income instead.

Years Paying

18

How many years of payments we have on record. This can understate very long histories where our data doesn't reach far enough back.

Price / Book (TTM)

2.20

Price as of Oct 25, 2026; latest reported book value

Price-to-book ratio: the share price on the date shown divided by the latest reported book value per share. A rough valuation gauge, most useful for asset-heavy sectors like REITs, banks and insurers.

S.A.F.E. Dividend Read

S.A.F.E. is a set of four checks on a dividend's record and the company's data, the same test used across the screener and our ranked lists. Solid: a Dividend Safety Score of 70+ and a yield of 2%+. Accelerating: at least three consecutive completed calendar years of higher total regular dividends. Flawless: since 1990, no calendar year whose total regular dividend fell more than 20% below the year before, and no suspension. Enduring: at least 20 years between the first and latest dividend in our records. All four met earns the S.A.F.E. flag.
S Solid
Below the Solid check (Dividend Safety Score 70+ and yield 2%+): Dividend Safety Score 51/100, yield 2.16%.
A Accelerating
Dividend growth has stalled — 1 consecutive annual increase(s), under the 3 this check looks for.
F Flawless
A calendar year's regular dividend total fell more than 20% below the year before.
E Enduring
18 year(s) of payments on record, under the 20 this check looks for.

Why the Yield Moved (90 Days)

HIMX's dividend yield rose from 1.97% to 2.16% over the past ~90 days (+0.18 pp). Of that move, +0.00 pp came from changes in the dividend rate and +0.18 pp from the share price ($12.78 on Aug 03, 2026 → $11.69 on Oct 30, 2026). A yield that rises because the price fell is not an improvement in the payout itself.
