TSMC Jumps as Investors Bet on Chip Giant’s Scale in Downturn
(Bloomberg) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. surged as much as 4.6% Friday after investors bet the world’s most valuable chipmaker would be among the first to emerge from an industry downturn in 2023.
Most Read from Bloomberg
TSMC executives addressed concerns about a prolonged chip crisis at its earnings announcement a day earlier, forecasting a small annual revenue growth and the beginnings of a recovery in the latter half of the year. Markets had been bracing for a far weaker outlook.
TSMC, the exclusive supplier of Apple Inc.’s Silicon chips for iPhones and Macs, has the technology and scale to weather a slowdown better than most of its peers. Executives reiterated the company’s plans to ramp up next-generation 2-nanometer chips to meet demand for more powerful and energy-efficient silicon. The company began bulk production of advanced 3nm chips last month.
What Bloomberg Intelligence Says
TSMC will be the first of the world’s top-five chip foundries to resume sales growth, probably in late 2023, while the semiconductor manufacturing industry will be dominated by smartphone and PC chip demand weakness through the year. Steady migration to next-generation process nodes, such as N3 in 2023, N2 in 2025, new specialty manufacturing capacity and 3D-packaging technology, ensure the company’s long-term domination of the contract-chipmaking market, and could help its long-term gross margin stay in the 53-60% range, far above peers.

TSMC cuts 2023 capex after record Q4 as chip demand weakens
TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC warned on Thursday that first-quarter revenue would drop as much as 5% and it would slash annual investment as the major Apple Inc supplier expects softer demand due to a slowing global economy. The bearish outlook follows a forecast-beating 78% jump in fourth-quarter profit, underscoring the depth of a sharp slowdown in a global technology sector that is grappling with worsening consumer demand brought about by decades-high inflation rates, rising interest rates and an economic downturn. Still, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd (TSMC), the world's most valuable chipmaker, forecast growth would return in the second half of this year.
