points:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Revenue Surge:<\/strong> Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC) announced its highest quarterly sales in history, reaching NT$1.27 trillion (approximately US$39.5 billion) for the second quarter, marking a 36% year-on-year increase and nearly 12% from the previous quarter.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Juny Momentum:<\/strong> TSMC&#8217;s June turnover saw a significant surge, with revenue up 67.9% year-on-year and 6.2% from May to a new monthly high of NT$442.68 billion.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>AI Demand Boost:<\/strong> Strong global demand for artificial intelligence (AI) applications is driving TSMC&#8217;s impressive financial performance.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Annual Forecast:<\/strong> For the entire year, TSMC&#8217;s consolidated revenue in the first half rose by 35.6% to NT$2.40 trillion and anticipates year-end sales growth over 30% in US dollar terms.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Advanced Processes and Capital Expenditute:<\/strong> TSMC is focusing heavily on its 2-nanometer (2nm) process technology and advanced manufacturing, with capital expenditure expected to be on the higher end of the previously forecast US$52 billion to US$56 billion range. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Global Expansion:<\/strong> TSMC is scaling up its overseas expansion efforts, notably in the United States, where President Trump announced in early July that TSMC is doubling the size of its chip plants under construction in Arizona.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Technological Edge:<\/strong> TSMC maintains a competitive edge in advanced processes, offering stable yields and a reputation for superior technology that keeps securing orders from top customers including Apple, Qualcomm, MediaTek, Nvidia, and AMD.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This summary encapsulates TSMC\u2019s record revenues, focus on innovation and expansion, and maintaining market-leading technology and capabilities.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSMC sales hit record on AI demand https:\/\/www.taipeitimes.com\/News\/biz\/archives\/2026\/07\/14\/2003860683 Publish
