Rand Fishkin said, sub directory is good for many reason compare to subdomain, but when you read this official article from Google official blog, then you will see the link between subdomain.example.com and example.com/subdomain is same i.e. they treat them as internal linking not external. So I don't think subdomain and sub directory is impact on SEO, but moz said, we have tested, sub domain and sub directories many times, and we got very good result with sub directory in SERP. But john muller and matt cutts(Google Employer) said, there are no any difference between subdomain and sub directory for SEO, use whatever is easiest for you.

But you are also said, you are getting very good result with sub directory and similarly there are many of webmaster tested sub directory and sub domain. And they also think sub directory is good for SEO. So look's like there are some minor different between subdirectory/subdomain, Yes google claim it, there are no any difference, but may be there are one algorithm, that treat them in different way.
