Analysis · LINK · Technology
Interlink Electronics' Q1 2026 results show significant operational improvements, with revenue increasing by 15.4% and gross margin expanding substantially from 35.6% to 43.5%. The company also reduced its net loss by 58% year-over-year, leading to a notable improvement in EPS.
