Morris Chang, chairman of foundry Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (Hsinchu, Taiwan), has told analysts that his company would likely fall behind a "major competitor" in foundry market share for 16nm/14nm FinFET node in 2015, but would then go on to be market leader at 16nm/14nm in 2016 and subsequent years.
This is despite the fact that TSMC has reportedly just started shipping application processors for Apple and reported record revenue and profits for the second quarter of 2014.
