On April 15, TSMC released its financial report for the first quarter of the financial year 2021 as of March 31. As per the financial report, TSMC’s consolidated revenue in the first quarter was 362.41 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.7%.
Net profit was 139.69 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 19.4%, gross profit margin 50.5%-52.5%, profit margin 39.5%-41.5%. There was a sudden power outage in the Fab14 P7 plant of TSMC Nanke yesterday morning.
The industry estimated that 30,000 wafers were affected, and the loss amount was less than NT$1 billion. Currently, the world’s advanced chips are in short supply.
TSMC’s first-quarter revenue also exceeded analyst expectations. On average, analysts expect TSMC’s revenue in the first quarter to be NT$360.5 billion. It now appears that TSMC has succeeded in setting a record for the third consecutive quarter.
