TSMC, damage higher than expected for the earthquake: slightly retracted the deliveries estimates for the first quarter
In recent days, the Taiwanese foundry TSMC noted that the damage caused by the earthquake on February 6 at Fab 14 were found to be higher than expected and that, consequently, the wafer deliveries for the first quarter of the year will suffer a greater impact on initial estimates.
On 6 February to remind you that an earthquake of magnitude 6.4 hit the southern part of the island of Taiwan, in the city of Tainan, damaging some production facilities of various companies, including precisely TSMC. In the hours following the earthquake, the foundry had established that 95% of the machinery would be given to operations in a matter of 2 or 3 days.
Initial estimates spoke of a reduction of the deliveries of the first quarter of 2016 wafers less than 1%, but the biggest impact of the damage brought TSMC retract estimates talking about a reduction of more than 1%. The company still believes he can reach the goal of 198 billion to 201 billion dollars turnover in Taiwan (equivalent to 5.9 to 6 billion US dollars) for the first quarter of 2016.
The administration of the Southern Taiwan Science Park, the site affected by the earthquake in which they operate many of the production factories of Taiwanese Actually, did you know you want to start a partnership with the National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering to organize a system of prevention, forecasting and analysis aimed at minimizing as much as possible the impact of earthquakes on the productive activities of the factories.
