DAIO DATA I/O CORP
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Data I/O reported Q1 2026 results with a significant miss: EPS -$0.34 vs consensus -$0.14 and revenue $3.3M vs $4.8M. However, the company simultaneously announced a transformational $23M acquisition expected to nearly double revenue and a $9M direct investment. Management guided Q2 revenue of $5.0-5.4M, implying ~20% sequential growth.
Key Financial Metrics
Actionable Insight
Monitor acquisition closing (target Q3) and Q2 revenue print in August. The $9M investment provides runway, but dilution is significant (869,840 shares + up to 1,080,000 warrants + conversion of $6.8M debentures). The Q1 miss was severe, but the strategic pivot could re-rate the stock if acquisition delivers.
Key Facts
- Q1 2026 revenue of $3.3M, down 47% YoY from $6.2M
- EPS of -$0.34 missed consensus of -$0.14 by 143%
- Acquisition LOI signed for $23M to buy a semiconductor handling company; expected to close by end of Q3
- Private placement of $9M including common stock, convertible debentures, and warrants
- Q2 2026 revenue guidance of $5.0-$5.4M, representing ~20% sequential growth
- Material weakness in internal controls over disaggregated revenue reporting disclosed
Financial Impact
Revenue miss of $1.5M vs consensus; acquisition valued at $23M (85% of market cap), $9M investment adds 33% dilution to current shares
Risk Factors
- Acquisition may fail to close or not achieve expected synergies
- Significant dilution from the $9M investment (warrants and convertible debentures)
- Continued revenue decline and cash burn; cash dropped to $5.7M from $7.9M
- Material weakness in internal controls may delay reporting or cause restatements
