TSMC Reports Second Quarter EPS of NT$1.39
Hsin-Chu, Taiwan, R.O.C., July 28, 2011 -- TSMC today announced consolidated revenue of NT$110.51 billion, net income of NT$35.95 billion, and diluted earnings per share of NT$1.39 (US$0.24 per ADR unit) for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Year-over-year, second quarter revenue increased 5.3% while both net income and diluted EPS decreased 10.8%. Compared to first quarter of 2011, second quarter of 2011 results represent a 4.9% increase in revenue, and a 0.9% decrease in both net income and diluted EPS. All figures were prepared in accordance with R.O.C. GAAP on a consolidated basis.
In US dollars, second quarter revenue increased 6.5% from the previous quarter and increased 16% year-over-year.
Gross margin for the quarter was 46%, operating margin was 34.3%, and net margin was 32.5%.
Second quarter revenue and margins were obtained based on the exchange rate of NTD 28.86 to 1 USD, as compared to the exchange rate of NTD 31.81 to 1 USD in 2Q 2010, and NTD 29.3 to 1 USD in the previous quarter. All exchange rates were calculated based on a transaction-based weighted average of the NTD to USD exchange rate over the quarter.
40-nanometer process technology accounted for 26% of total wafer revenues, and 65-nanometer accounted for 29%. These advanced technologies accounted for 55% of total revenues.
“The outlook of the global economic condition has weakened in the last few months, which has added volatility to the supply chain inventory, and in turn, has significantly impacted the demand for our wafers in the third quarter of 2011. Relative to the second quarter, the computer and consumer segments will decline more than the decline of the communications segment while industrial/standard segment will increase,” said Lora Ho, SVP and Chief Financial Officer of TSMC. “Based on our current business outlook and exchange rate assumption, management expects overall performance for third quarter 2011 to be as follows”:
- Revenue is expected to be between NT$102 billion and NT$104 billion;
- Gross profit margin is expected to be between 40.5% and 42.5%;
- Operating profit margin is expected to be between 28% and 30%.
