TSMC posts Q4 revenue of T$1,046.08 billion, above forecasts
TSMC's 31.6% sales growth to NT$3.81 trillion in 2025 was driven by AI chip demand and a recovery in non-AI sectors, marking its first quarterly revenue above NT$1 trillion.
- On Jan 9, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. reported a 20.45 per cent increase in fourth-quarter revenue, with revenue for October–December at T$1.046 trillion, beating the LSEG SmartEstimate of T$1.036 trillion.
- Analysts attributed TSMC's growth to strong global AI demand boosting advanced chip shipments and a recovery in non-AI user demand, with major customers Nvidia and Apple benefiting.
- The U.S. dollar trading above NT$30.6 meant TSMC's US$32.2–33.4 billion guidance, implying NT$985.32 billion–NT$1.02 trillion, was beaten as the dollar hit NT$31.526.
- TSMC will hold an investor conference on Jan. 15 to detail fourth-quarter results and provide 2026 guidance, an event analysts say will cover AI-driven orders, while Taipei-listed shares rose 44.2% last year.
- Peer Taiwan's Foxconn also reported bumper fourth-quarter sales of T$2.6028 trillion, underscoring sector strength amid TSMC's record $3.81 trillion annual sales in 2025.
