According to information from the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS), the global semiconductor market grew by 4.2% year-over-year in the second quarter of 2023. This will be the first positive quarterly growth since the fourth quarter of 2021. The semiconductor market has been slowing down since the fourth quarter of 2021 after growing rapidly in 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The reason behind this is the weak economic growth caused by inflation and rising interest rates around the globe, causing the weak demand in consumer semiconductor end-markets such as personal computers and smartphones. Research institutes are forecasting a decline in the semiconductor market for the whole year of 2023, with Future Horizons predicting a 20% year-over-year decline and Tech Insights predicting a 10% year-over-year decline. Semiconductor Intelligence predicts a 13% decline. According to the Development Institution of Industry, Technology and International Strategy of the Industrial Technology Research Institute (IEK) in Taiwan, the current status of Taiwan's semiconductor industry is as follows. The total production value of the semiconductor industry in Taiwan reached NT$1,015.0 billion in the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 0.7% quarter-over-quarter, and a decrease of 18% year-over-year. IEK expects the semiconductor industry to bottom out in the second half of the year. The production value of the semiconductor industry in Taiwan in 2023 will be NT$4.2 trillion, representing an annual decrease of 12.1%.
Mr. Yang Ming-Hsiang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer concluded: "The global semiconductor industry is subject to supply and demand adjustments in 2022 due to general economic factors and a slowdown in some end-use demand. However, increasing demand for new applications such as HPC, 5G, artificial intelligence (AI), and automotive electronics will drive the semiconductor industry towards a new direction. Among which, the demand for automotive semiconductors will grow due to the increase in demand for smart vehicle applications such as electric vehicles and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). In addition, under the influence of geopolitics, major semiconductor countries have launched strategies to support the localization of semiconductors, which have also affected the market and regional layout of semiconductor industry players and proposed corresponding competitive strategies to face the new development trend. The Group will pay close attention to the changes in the market environment, respond to market changes in a prudent and prompt manner to seize development opportunities, and actively explore new business opportunities. The Group will also intensify its efforts to identify talents, strengthen its innovation and R&D capabilities, enhance its core competitiveness, and create long-term shareholder value."
