TSMC announced today that its revenue in March was NT$171.967 billion (the same unit below), the second highest in history. The overall revenue in the first quarter reached 491.076 billion yuan, a record high for a single quarter, and exceeded its operating target.

The legal person said that the main reason for the recovery of TSMC's revenue in March was the return to normal operation and the recovery of working days. Among them, TSMC's revenue in March was 171.967 billion yuan, an increase of 17% month-on-month and a year-on-year increase of 33.2%. In the first quarter, the revenue was 491.076 billion yuan, exceeding the operating target of 458.16 billion to 474.72 billion yuan, rewriting the single-quarter revenue record, with a quarterly increase of 12.07% and a year-on-year increase of 35.5%.

The legal person also pointed out that the strong market demand for high-performance computing and automotive electronics, coupled with the increase in foundry quotations, and the relatively favorable exchange rate of the New Taiwan dollar, are the main driving forces for TSMC's first-quarter revenue to hit a new high. It is expected that TSMC will hold a corporate briefing on April 14. It is also reported that Intel CEO Henry Kissinger is visiting customers and suppliers in Asia, and will travel to Taiwan, Japan and India, and is expected to meet with TSMC executives.
