  • A Brief Introduction to Tsmc
    TSMC commits itself to providing its customers with the best quality and most comprehensive services. LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS Dear Shareholders, Year 2004 was a banner year for TSMC. We again set new records for revenues and earnings, while continuing to lead the semiconductor dedicated foundry sector. Our production accounted for more than 7% of the total value of the world's semi- conductor output. TSMC's performance was anchored in our "Trinity of Strength": strength in technology development and deployment, strength in manufacturing capacity and efficiency, and strength in building customer partnerships. For example: ● TSMC cumulatively shipped over one million wafers (8-inch equivalent) in 0.13-micron technology. SM ● TSMC's Nexsys 90nm, the world's first 12-inch, low-k, 90-nanometer process to reach full production, was adopted in more than 30 customer products after one year's ramp, and achieved product yields ahead of internal goals. ● TSMC served more than 300 customers and produced more than 5,000 products in our fabs. With its core manufacturing and logistics competencies, TSMC's experience in integrating front-end design and back-end turn- key services has helped customers resolve many daunting challenges in advanced chips designed with our 90nm technology. We collaborate closely with customers, enabling them to deliver their products on time and to achieve success in their end markets. Financial Strength and Results TSMC broke new records in both revenues and net income in 2004. Revenue reached NT$255.9 billion, an increase of 26.8% compared with the previous record set in 2003. Net income was NT$92.32 billion, an increase of 95.3% compared with 2003 results, while fully diluted earnings per share were NT$3.97 (US$0.59 per ADS unit), an increase of 96.8 %.
