TSMC Spokesperson Mr. Harvey Chang noted that due to sustained seasonal demand, unit sales for November 2002 decreased only slightly compared to October 2002.

The Company's sales revenues from January through November 2002 increased 31.1% over the corresponding period of 2001.
Mr. Chang also stated that due to the recent pick-up in PC demand and increased demand for communication products for seasonal sales, the Company's wafer shipment for the fourth quarter of 2002 would approximately equal those of the third quarter of 2002. The Company's utilization rate for the fourth quarter of 2002 is expected to be close to 60 percent.
