According to the news on January 17, TSMC, the leader of wafer foundry, will comprehensively raise the price of wafer foundry in 2022. With the expiration of the production contract in 2021, the foundry price of wafers has been comprehensively increased in the 2022 Production Contract negotiated between TSMC and customers. Among them, the average price of advanced processes such as 16 nm and 12 nm, 7 nm and 6 nm, 5 nm and 4 nm increased by about 8% to 10% compared with 2021, and the average price of 28 nm and 22 nm, 40 nm and more mature processes increased by about 15% compared with 2021.
wafer foundry orders are full
performance hit a new high
Since 2021, under the background that the semiconductor industry chain has been in short supply, there have been several rounds of price increases in many links of the industry chain, the commercial performance of major wafer foundry has frequently reached new highs, and the gross profit margin has been increasing. From the current situation, the capacity of the wafer foundry is still full, and the orders are still full. Many manufacturers such as TSMC and liandian have earlier put forward the price increase plan for the first quarter of 2022.
The market is still hot, and the wafer foundry giants are making a lot of money. TSMC’s total revenue in 2021 was NT $1587.42 billion (about RMB 365.83 billion), an increase of 18.5% compared with NT $1340 billion in 2020. Its monthly revenue, quarterly sales and annual total revenue reached a record high.
Samsung Electronics is expected to achieve revenue of 76 trillion won (about 404.32 billion yuan) in the fourth quarter of 2021, with a year-on-year increase of 23.48% and a month on month increase of 2.73%, which is expected to reach a record high revenue in a single quarter.
In 2021, the annual revenue of liandian reached NT $213.011 billion, with an annual increase of 20.47%. In December last year, the revenue reached NT $20.28 billion, another record high for the annual revenue.
Lattice core expects to achieve revenue of US $1.8 billion to US $1.83 billion in the fourth quarter of last year, with a month on month increase of 5.9% to 7.6% and a year-on-year increase of 69.5% to 72.3%. The revenue in a single quarter is expected to set a new historical record.
According to the analysis of insiders, at present, the wafer foundry industry has maintained a fierce rise for five consecutive quarters, and will also maintain a rise in the first quarter of this year. However, in the case of falling demand and continuous noise, and it is difficult for many chip customers to transmit cost pressure to the downstream, the rise of wafer OEM quotation in the second quarter will be suspended or the increase will converge significantly.
