As of the October 19, 2026 close, HIMX finished 16.61% below its 150-day moving average ($13.97) and 6.58% below its 200-day moving average ($12.47). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is HIMX overbought or oversold?
At the October 19, 2026 close, HIMX's RSI(14) was 29.2, in oversold territory (below 30). The MACD histogram was negative, so short-term momentum leaned bearish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, HIMX has $298.7M in cash with $593.7M in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. Free cash flow is running at -$84.0M, which bears watching. Negative free cash flow can be acceptable during heavy investment periods but needs to improve over time. ROE of 4.1% points to modest capital efficiency, indicating how much profit the company produces per dollar of shareholder equity. ROA of 1.5% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has pulled back from $1.20B (2022) to $832.2M (2025), a 31% decline worth watching.
Himax Technologies, Inc.'s elevated beta suggests the stock experiences more pronounced price movements than the overall market, which increases both upside potential and downside risk. The company is burning cash at the operating level, which is not unusual for growth-phase companies but adds risk if it persists. At over 50x earnings, HIMX carries valuation risk — any slowdown in growth expectations could lead to meaningful price adjustments. Understanding these risk dimensions helps frame what to watch going forward as conditions evolve for Himax Technologies, Inc. and its sector.
