Taiwanese semiconductor giant TSMC has posted remarkable revenue growth in the third quarter of 2025, exceeding expectations. With sales of $33.1 billion, the company exceeded its forecasts and further consolidated its strong position in the global market. The demand for advanced technologies, particularly in the area of artificial intelligence, has contributed significantly to this success.
A key driver of TSMC’s growth is the high demand for advanced manufacturing processes. The 3-nanometer process contributed 23% of wafer sales, while the 5-nanometer process accounted for 37%. Overall, 74% of wafer sales come from technologies 7 nanometers and below, underscoring TSMC’s leadership in the semiconductor industry.
Financially, TSMC is on solid foundations. The company has $90 billion in cash and marketable securities. In the third quarter, NT427 billion of operating cash flow was generated while NT287 billion was invested in capital expenditures. These investments are crucial to meet increasing demand and secure technological leadership.
However, geopolitical tensions, particularly regarding trade restrictions with China, pose a challenge. TSMC remains optimistic, however, and expects demand for AI-related products to grow by 40% even if the Chinese market is restricted. Strategic focus on technology migration, ASP upgrades and volume growth is seen as key to future growth.
Looking to the future, TSMC plans to expand its capacity for advanced nodes such as N2 to meet strong demand. The introduction of Foundry 2.0, which focuses on system performance rather than just single-chip technology, is intended to help TSMC maintain its competitiveness. These strategic moves underscore TSMC’s commitment to succeed in a challenging geopolitical environment.
