Power Integrations delivered Q3 revenue of $125.476 million, up approximately 5% sequentially and 5.4% year over year, while GAAP diluted EPS improved to $0.32 from $0.17 in Q2 and negative $0.02 a year earlier. Management provided Q4 revenue guidance of $118.0 million-$126.0 million and projected GAAP operating margin of 10.0%-12.0%, but the filing excerpt does not establish whether the outlook was raised or lowered. International concentration, a 7% workforce reduction, and a $9.15 million litigation verdict remain significant risk factors.
