Diodes Incorporated Named to Forbes Magazine “200 Best Small Companies” for Sixth Consecutive Year

“We are pleased to once again be recognized by Forbes Magazine as one of the ‘Best Small Companies’ in America,” commented Dr. Keh-Shew Lu, President and Chief Executive Officer of Diodes Incorporated. “Having been named to the list for six consecutive years, we are very proud that our growth and financial achievements continue to be recognized by one of the most widely respected business and financial news organizations.”

According to Forbes, the list of the 200 best small companies is compiled based upon a review of both sales and earnings growth. Company candidates must have annual revenue between $5 million and $750 million, be publicly traded for at least one year and have a stock price no lower than $5. Rankings are based on earnings growth, sales growth and return on equity over the past 12 months and five years. Forbes also compared the stock performance of each company with that of its peers. Shares of last year's companies that were listed outpaced the Russell Index by 10 percentage points.
