DIODES INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated, condensed financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the instruction to Form 10-Q
and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been
included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the calendar year ended December
31, 1998.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned foreign subsidiary, Diodes Taiwan Co., Ltd.
("Diodes-Taiwan"), and the accounts of Shanghai KaiHong Electronics Co., Ltd.
("Diodes-China") in which the Company has a 95% interest. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
NOTE B - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and
liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the tax effect of differences between the financial statement and
tax basis of assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a net
deferred tax asset of $1,099,000 resulting from temporary differences in bases
of assets and liabilities. This deferred tax asset results primarily from
inventory reserves and certain expense accruals, which are not currently
deductible for income tax purposes.
The income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income differs
from the statutory combined federal and state tax rates. The primary reasons for
this difference are (i) in accordance with Chinese tax policy, earnings of
Diodes-China are not subject to tax for the first two years upon commencement of
cumulative profitable operations, and (ii) earnings of Diodes-Taiwan are not
subject to State income tax in the U.S.
Under Federal tax law, foreign earnings are taxed when funds are
distributed by foreign subsidiaries to the parent Company. A temporary
difference between financial and tax reporting exists for profits earned at the
foreign subsidiary level not distributed to the parent. A deferred tax liability
of $521,000 is reflected in the balance sheet for a dividend of approximately
$4.5 million expected to be issued from the Taiwanese subsidiary to the parent
Company. Approximately $1.9 million will be distributed in 1999, with the
remaining $2.6 million by year-end 2000. The Company has not established a
deferred tax liability for the remaining undistributed earnings of this
subsidiary of approximately $5.0 million since the Company views this amount as
a permanent investment and has no current plans, intentions or obligation to
distribute all or part of that amount from Taiwan to the United States.
NOTE C - ADVANCES TO RELATED PARTY VENDOR
Under a compensation-trade agreement the Company has advanced
$2.5 million in cash to a related party vendor, FabTech Incorporated
("FabTech"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Vishay/Lite-On Power Semiconductor,
Pte, Ltd. ("VLPSC"). Interest accrues monthly at an interest rate equal to the
Company's borrowing interest rate on its long-term bank loan with total accrued
interest of approximately $411,000 as of September 30, 1999. Amounts advanced,
including interest, are payable beginning in 1999 and expiring February 2001
when any outstanding balances become due on demand. The compensation-trade
agreement allows the Company to recover interest and principal due by deducting
a fixed amount ($10.00) per unit for products (silicon wafers) purchased from
FabTech. As of September 30, 1999, the Company expects this note to be
collected, including interest, no later than February 2001, as per the terms of
the agreement.

<PAGE> 7
NOTE D - SEGMENT INFORMATION
Information about the Company's operations in the United States,
Taiwan, and China are presented below. Items transferred among the Company and
its subsidiaries are transferred at prices to recover costs plus an appropriate
mark up for profit. Inter-company revenues, profits and assets have been
eliminated to arrive at the consolidated amounts.
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise
about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated
regularly by the chief decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how
to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company's chief
decision-making group consists of the President, Chief Financial Officer, and
Vice President of Far East Operations. The operating segments are managed
separately because each operating segment represents a strategic business unit
whose function and purpose differs from the other segments.
For financial reporting purposes, the Company is deemed to
operate in three separate segments: North America, Taiwan, and China. All three
segments focus on discrete semiconductor devices. The North American segment
procures and distributes products primarily throughout North America and
provides management, warehousing and engineering support to the other two
segments. The Taiwan segment procures product from, and manufactures and
distributes product primarily to, companies in Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, and
Hong Kong. This segment also procures product for, and manufactures and
distributes product to, the Company's North American operations. The China
segment manufactures product for, and distributes product to, both the North
American and Taiwan segments. In 1997, the China segment began manufacturing
product for, and distributing product to, customers in China and the U.S.
The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as
those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company
evaluates performance based on stand-alone operating segment income. Revenues
are attributed to geographic areas based on the location of the market producing
the revenues.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Except for the historical information contained herein, the
matters addressed in this Item 2 constitute "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties,
including those discussed below under the heading "Factors That May Affect
Future Results" and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by the
Company's management. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the
"Act") provides certain "safe harbor" provisions for forward-looking statements.
All forward-looking statements made on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are
made pursuant to the Act.
GENERAL
Diodes Incorporated (the "Company") is a manufacturer of
high-quality discrete semiconductor devices to leading manufacturers in the
automotive, electronics, computing and telecommunications industries. The
Company's products include small signal transistors and MOSFETs, transient
voltage suppressors (TVSs), zeners, Schottkys, diodes, rectifiers and bridges.
Products are sold primarily in North America and Asia, both directly to
end-users and through electronic component distributors.
For financial reporting purposes, the Company is deemed to
operate in three separate segments: North America, Taiwan, and China. All three
segments focus on discrete semiconductor devices. The North American segment
procures and distributes products primarily throughout North America and
provides management, warehousing and engineering support to the other two
segments. The Taiwan segment procures product from, and manufactures and
distributes product primarily to, companies in Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, and
Hong Kong. This segment also procures product for, and manufactures and
distributes product to, the Company's North American operations. The China
segment manufactures product for, and distributes product to, both the North
American and Taiwan segments. In 1997, the China segment began manufacturing
product for, and distributing product to, customers in China and the U.S. See
Note D of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for a description of the
Company's adoption of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information.
Products are sold under brand names such as Diodes, Lite-On, ITT
and Vishay/Lite-On Power Semiconductor ("VLPSC"). The Company is unifying
product lines under a limited number of brand names in order to establish brand
name unity and consistency of product, and to capitalize on brand name
recognition, where possible.
The Company's Far East subsidiaries, Diodes-Taiwan and
Diodes-China, both manufacture product for sale to North America and the Far
East. Diodes-Taiwan's manufacturing focuses on products such as axial Schottky
and MELF rectifiers. These "general use" products are destined for end products
in the automotive industry as well as for use in commercial appliances,
household lighting, and electric hand tools, among others. Diodes-China's
manufacturing focuses on SOT-23 and SOD-123 products. These surface mount
devices ("SMD's") are used in the computer and telecommunication industries and
are destined for cellular phones, notebook computers, pagers, PCMCIA cards,
modems, and garage door transmitters, among others. Diodes-China's
state-of-the-art facilities have been designed to develop even smaller,
higher-density products as electronic industry trends to portable and hand-held
devices continue.

<PAGE> 10
The discrete semiconductor industry has, for the last few years,
been subject to severe pricing pressures, compounded by the Asian economic
situation. Although manufacturing costs have been falling, excess manufacturing
capacity and over-inventory have caused selling prices to fall at a greater
extent than manufacturing costs. Because of this competitive environment, gross
profit margins have declined from 28.3% in 1995 to 25.4% for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999. To compete in this highly competitive industry, in
recent years, the Company has committed substantial resources to the development
and implementation of two areas of operation: (i) sales and marketing, and (ii)
manufacturing.
Emphasizing the Company's focus on customer service, additional
personnel and programs have been added. In order to meet customers' needs at the
design stage of end-product development, the Company has employed additional
applications engineers. These applications engineers work directly with
customers to assist them in "designing in" the correct products to produce
optimum results. Regional sales managers, working closely with manufacturers'
representative firms and distributors, have also been added in the U.S. and the
Far East to help satisfy customers' requirements. In addition, the Company has
developed relationships with major distributors who inventory and sell the
Company's products. The relationship with Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has
provided additional opportunities for the Company to have its products offered
by some of the world's largest distributors.
Beginning in 1998 and continuing throughout the first nine months
of 1999, the Company, particularly through its North American operations,
increased the amount of product shipped to larger distributors. Although these
sales were significant in terms of total sales dollars and gross margin dollars,
they generally were under agreements that resulted in lower gross profit margins
for the Company when compared to sales to smaller distributors and OEM
customers. As the consolidation of electronic component distributors continues,
the Company anticipates that a greater portion of its distributor sales will be
to larger distributors, and thus may result in continuing pressure on gross
profit margins.
The Company purchases silicon wafers, the basic material from
which discrete semiconductor are manufactured. In 1999, the Company began
purchasing wafers, primarily from two related parties, VLPSC and FabTech, for
resale to its customers as well. For the three and nine months ended September
30, 1999, sales of wafers were $909,000 and $2.3 million, respectively, at gross
profit margins significantly lower than the Company's historical profit margins.
There can be no assurance that the Company can continue to obtain wafers from
VLPSC or FabTech for internal use or for resale.
Since 1997, the Company's manufacturing focus has primarily been
in the development and expansion of Diodes-China. As of September 30, 1999, the
Company has purchased approximately $18.5 million in plant and equipment for the
manufacturing facility, which supplies product for sale primarily in North
America and the Far East. The investment allows for the manufacture of
additional SOT-23 packaged components as well as other surface-mount packaging,
including the smaller SOD packages. Approximately $5.0 million of the Company's
existing credit facility has been used to finance the additional manufacturing
capacity.
In November 1999, the Company's Board of Director's approved an
additional expansion of plant and equipment at Diodes-China of approximately
$6.5 million bringing the total expansion plans to approximately $11.0 million.
This expansion will increase capacity for SOT-23 type packages to meet current
demand, and increase capacity for even smaller, subminiature packages such as
SOD-323, SOT-323/353/363, and SOD-123. The capacity generated from the
previously announced $4.5 million expansion has already been sold out through
year 2000. The investment will be financed by existing and future cash flow, as
well as by existing borrowing arrangements. The Company will continue to expand
Diodes-China's capacity as demand warrants.
The Company's overall effective federal, state, and foreign tax
rate decreased to 16.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from 29.2%
for the first nine months of 1998. The decrease in the Company's effective tax
rate is due primarily to the increase in Diodes-China's contribution to net
income at a tax rate of 0%.

Net Sales, Cost of Goods Sold and Other Income for the three- and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 have been restated to be consistent
with the current presentation of certain transactions. In the past, profit
realized on drop shipments from Diodes-Taiwan was accounted for as "Commission
Income" under "Other Income". These shipments (which are expected to become an
increasingly significant part of the Company's business) are now included in
"Net Sales", with an appropriate charge to "Cost of Goods Sold". The income
derived from these transactions is now included in Gross Profit. These changes
have no effect on Net Income and Earnings per Share. The increase to Net Sales
and Gross Profit, and the decrease in Other Income for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 was $317,000, $104,000, and $104,000, respectively. The
increase to Net Sales and Gross Profit, and the decrease in Other Income for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $626,000, $323,000, and $323,000,
respectively. In addition, Minority Interest in Joint Venture Earnings is
presented after Provision for Income Taxes as per Rule 5-03(b)12 of Regulation
S-X.
The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer
systems to identify the systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 Issue
("Y2K") and has developed an implementation plan to resolve the issue. Y2K is
the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four
to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's programs that have
time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. This could result in a major system failure or
miscalculations. The Company is utilizing both internal and external resources
to identify, correct or reprogram, and test the systems for Y2K compliance.
Confirmation has been received from the Company's primary product vendors and
major customers that plans are being developed to address processing of
transactions in the year 2000. The total cost of Y2K compliance was not
considered a material expense. All internal critical systems have been tested
and the Company believes that, with its modifications to existing software and
its upgrades to Y2K compliant software, Y2K will not pose significant
operational problems for the Company's computer systems. However, if (i)
problems surface that have not yet been identified that will require substantial
time and resources to remedy, or (ii) such modifications and upgrades are not
completed timely by the Company's business partners, they could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business.

NET SALES $ 14,963,000 $ 21,750,000
</TABLE>
Net sales increased approximately $6.8 million, or 45.4%, for the
three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period last year, due
primarily to a 55.2% increase in units sold, as a result of an increased demand
for the Company's products, primarily in the Far East. Diodes-China's trade
sales of $821,000, compared to $0 in the same period last year, was partly
offset by a 6.3% decrease in the Company's average selling price, primarily in
the Far East. The Company anticipates these pricing pressures will continue for
the balance of the year, though the severity should slowly diminish. In 1999,
Diodes-Taiwan began purchasing silicon wafers, a new product line, from FabTech
for resale in the Far East. Sales totaling $909,000 of silicon wafers also
contributed to the increase in sales. There can be no guarantee that sales of
silicon wafers will continue in the future.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN PERCENTAGE 24.9% 27.1%
</TABLE>
Gross profit increased approximately $2.2 million, or 58.4%, due primarily to
the 45.4% increase in sales. Manufacturing profit at Diodes-China at higher
gross profit margins contributed to an increase in gross margin percentage to
27.1% for the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to 24.9% for the
same period in 1998. Although gross profit margins strengthened in the third
quarter of 1999, pricing pressures continue to exist on many of the Company's
product lines, and there can be no guarantee that margins will continue to
improve.

SG&A for the three months ended September 30, 1999 increased
approximately $825,000, or 29.3%, compared to the same period last year, due
primarily to increases in management expenses at Diodes-China, higher
Company-wide marketing and advertising expenses, increased sales commissions at
Diodes-Taiwan, and additional sales and engineering personnel. SG&A as a
percentage of sales decreased to 16.7% from 18.8% in the comparable period last

</TABLE>
Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30,
1999 decreased $31,000, due primarily to a decreased use of the Company's credit
facility to support the expansion of Diodes-China versus the same period last
year. The Company's interest expense is primarily the result of the term loan by
which the Company is financing (i) the investment in the Diodes-China
manufacturing facility and (ii) the $2.9 million, including accrued interest,
advanced to FabTech. Interest income is primarily the interest charged to
FabTech, a related party, under the Company's formal loan agreement, as well as
earnings on its cash balances.

in the comparable period last year. This decrease is due primarily to the
increase in Diodes-China's contribution to net income at a tax rate of 0%. Based
upon tax rates in the U.S. and Taiwan and the expected profitability of each of
the Company's three business segments during the balance of the year, it is
anticipated that for the twelve months of 1999, the provision for income taxes
will be in the range of 15-20% of pre-tax income.

Net sales increased approximately $9.6 million, or 20.7%, for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period last year, due
primarily to a 37.1% increase in units sold, as a result of an increased demand
for the Company's products, primarily in the Far East. Diodes-China trade sales
of $2.1 million, compared to $59,000 in the same period last year, was partly
offset by a 12.8% decrease in the Company's average selling price, primarily in
the Far East. The Company anticipates these pricing pressures will continue for
the balance of the year, though the severity should slowly diminish. Sales
totaling $2.3 million of silicon wafers, a new product line in 1999, also
contributed to the increase in sales. There can be no guarantee that sales of
silicon wafers will continue in the future.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN PERCENTAGE 25.7% 25.4%
</TABLE>
Gross profit increased approximately $2.3 million, or 19.2%, due primarily to
the 20.7% increase in sales, partly offset by margin pressures. Continuing
pricing pressures within the discrete semiconductor industry, primarily in the
Far East, and an increase in the percentage of the Company's sales to larger
distributors at lower gross profit margins contributed to a decrease in gross
margin percentage to 25.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared
to 25.7% for the same period in 1998. In addition, silicon wafer sales in the
Far East, at substantially lower gross margins than the Company's primary
product lines, also contributed to the lower gross margin percentage. Although
gross profit margins seem to be strengthening, pricing pressures continue to
exist on many of the Company's product lines, and there can be no guarantee of
margin improvement.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 was $4.2 million compared to $1.1 million for the same period
in 1998. The primary sources of cash flows from operating activities in 1999
were net income of $3.2 million and an increase in accounts payable of $3.8
million. The primary use of cash flows from operating activities in 1999 was an
increase in accounts receivable of $4.7 million. The primary sources of cash
flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
were net income of $2.3 million and a decrease in accounts receivable of
$446,000, while the primary use was a $1.5 million decrease in accounts payable.
16
<PAGE> 17
Since December 31, 1998 accounts receivable from customers has
increased 53.8% due primarily to a slowing trend in payments from major
distributors. The Company does not expect this trend to result in additional bad
debt expense. The Company continues to closely monitor its credit policies,
while at times providing more flexible terms, primarily to its Asian customers,
when necessary. The ratio of the Company's current assets to current liabilities
on September 30, 1999 was 1.99 to 1, compared to a ratio of 2.55 to 1 on
December 31, 1998.
Cash used by investing activities was $5.3 million as of
September 30, 1999, compared to $6.4 million during the same period in 1998. The
primary investment in both years was for additional manufacturing equipment at
the Diodes-China manufacturing facility.
Cash provided by financing activities was $394,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $4.4 million for the same period in
1998. In March 1998, the Company amended an August 1996 loan agreement whereby
the Company obtained a $23.1 million credit facility with a major bank
consisting of: a working capital line of credit up to $9 million and term
commitment notes providing up to $14 million for plant expansion, advances to
vendors, and letters of credit for Diodes-China. Interest on outstanding
borrowings under the credit agreement is payable monthly at LIBOR plus a
negotiated margin. Fixed borrowings require fixed principal plus interest
payments for sixty months thereafter. The agreement has certain covenants and
restrictions, which, among other matters, require the maintenance of certain
financial ratios and operating results, as defined in the agreement. The Company
was in compliance as of September 30, 1999. The working capital line of credit
expires June 30, 2000 and contains a sublimit of $3.0 million for issuance of
commercial and stand-by letters of credit. As of September 30, 1999,
approximately $7.4 million is outstanding under the term note commitment, and
the average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was approximately 6.4%.
The Company has used its credit facility primarily to fund the
advances to Diodes-China and FabTech as well as to support its operations. At
September 30, 1999, amounts due from FabTech, including accrued interest, are
approximately $2.9 million, and the entire amount is due February 2001. The
Company believes that the continued availability of this credit facility,
together with internally generated funds, will be sufficient to meet the
Company's currently foreseeable operating cash requirements.
In July 1998, the Company replaced two previously filed
guarantees to Shanghai Kaihong Electronics Co., Ltd. (Diodes-China) and the
minority investor of the Diodes-China joint venture for $1.0 million and
$850,000, respectively, as well as a $1.0 million letter of credit, with a $3.0
million guarantee. The Company is in the process of extending this agreement as
well as increasing the borrowing limits.
Total working capital decreased approximately 3.2% to $16.1
million as of September 30, 1999, from $16.6 million as of December 31, 1998.
The Company believes that such working capital position will be sufficient for
growth opportunities.
The Company's long-term debt to equity ratio decreased to 0.25 at
September 30, 1999, from 0.30 at December 31, 1998. The Company's total debt to
equity ratio increased to 0.73 at September 30, 1999, from 0.63 at December 31,
1998. It is anticipated that these ratios may increase as the Company continues
to use its credit facilities to fund additional sourcing and manufacturing
opportunities.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company has no material plans or
commitments for capital expenditures other than in connection with the expansion
at Diodes-China. However, to ensure that the Company can secure reliable and
cost effective sourcing to support and better position itself for growth, the
Company is continuously evaluating additional sources of products. The Company
believes its financial position will provide sufficient funds should an
appropriate investment opportunity arise and thereby, assist the Company in
improving customer satisfaction and in maintaining or increasing market share.

inclusion in the proxy materials relating to such meeting. Recently, the
Securities and Exchange Commission amended its rule governing a company's
ability to use discretionary proxy authority with respect to stockholder
proposals which were not submitted by the stockholders in time to be included in
the proxy statement. As a result of that rule change, in the event a stockholder
proposal is not submitted to the Company prior to March 15, 2000, the proxies
solicited by the Board of Directors for the 2000 annual meeting of stockholders
will confer authority on the holders of the proxy to vote the shares in
accordance with their best judgment and discretion if the proposal is presented
at the 2000 annual meeting of stockholders without any discussion of the
proposal in the proxy statement for such meeting.
