Himax Technologies is a holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. is a fabless semiconductor solution provider focused on display imaging processing technologies. Co. has two operating segments: Driver integrated circuit, which is engaged in the design, research, development and sale of displays driver for large-sized thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) panels and displays driver for small and medium-sized TFT-LCD panels; and Non-driver Products, which is engaged in the design, research, manufacturing and sale of non-driver products, such as timing controllers, liquid crystal on silicon, complementary metal oxide semiconductor image sensors and wafer level optics. The HIMX YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the HIMX YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether HIMX YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the HIMX YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
