Description: TSM Taiwan Semiconductor January 28, 2026

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM) is the world’s largest dedicated semiconductor foundry, offering end-to-end services from wafer fabrication (CMOS logic, mixed-signal, RF, embedded memory, etc.) to packaging, testing, mask making, and engineering support across a global customer base.

Its product portfolio underpins high-performance computing, smartphones, IoT, automotive electronics, and consumer devices, positioning TSM at the core of multiple high-growth tech ecosystems.

Key recent metrics (Q4 2025): revenue $24.5 bn (+12% YoY), fab utilization 92%, capex $9.2 bn (≈38% of revenue) focused on 3-nm and 2-nm node expansion, and R&D spend $3.1 bn (≈13% of revenue). The company holds roughly 55% market share in the advanced-node foundry segment, a lead that is reinforced by the accelerating demand for AI-accelerators and automotive-grade chips.

Macro drivers include sustained AI server growth (+30% YoY in Q4 2025), ongoing U.S.–China technology tensions prompting “friend-shoring” of semiconductor supply chains, and a tightening of global chip capacity that benefits TSM’s premium-price positioning.
