Zhitong Financial APP learned that according to a statement released by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd on Thursday, its October revenue reached 210.3 billion New Taiwan dollars (US $6.6 billion), up 56% from a year earlier, compared with 134.5 billion New Taiwan dollars in the same period last year. This shows that it has withstood the impact of a wide-ranging slowdown in electronics demand.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd said this week that in addition to the $12 billion chip plant already under construction in Arizona, it also plans to build another plant in that state. While other chipmakers have warned in recent months that data centres and consumer technology customers are cutting orders as inventories build up, they are facing a more difficult market.
Last month, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd reported higher-than-expected third-quarter sales, but its competitors Samsung Electronics and AMD fell short of expectations.
