Is ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. (NASDAQ:IMOS) a buy in 2026?
Hold. ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. is a wait-and-watch at today's price, not a fresh buy.
Display driver OSAT riding a real cycle, but the stock has already done the work the fundamentals are still catching up to.
Where IMOS is headed
ChipMOS sits in a strange spot for mid-2026. The display driver IC business, which most Western investors forget is actually the company's anchor, is benefiting from the OLED migration in mid-range smartphones and the slow grind of automotive display content per vehicle climbing past $200. Revenue growth of 25.4% trailing and a consensus pointing to 32% next year tells you the cycle has turned. The COF and COG bumping lines in Hsinchu are running hot, and the memory testing segment is finally getting pulled along by the DDR5 transition and HBM packaging spillover work from the Taiwanese foundry complex.
