TSMC September Sales Hit Another Record as AI Boom Rolls On

The world’s largest contract chipmaker said AI demand lifted revenue 50% from a year earlier, beating analyst estimates from 19 analysts.

  • On Thursday, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company reported record third-quarter revenue of $1.49 trillion, rising 50% from the year-earlier period due to surging demand for AI applications.
  • This historic growth stems from the global buildout of AI infrastructure, with TSMC serving as a major supplier to Nvidia and Apple amid booming chip demand.
  • For September alone, TSMC reported revenue rose 54.6% year-on-year to $511.86 billion, though this reflects a 0.6% decline from August figures.
  • Despite the record-breaking quarter, TSMC shares closed 1.35% lower on Thursday; the company remains Asia's most valuable firm with a $2.1 trillion market capitalisation.
  • TSMC is scheduled to report full third-quarter earnings next week, while in September the manufacturer committed to adopting ASML's High NA extreme ultraviolet lithography machines for advanced chip production.
