TSMC’s U.S. Fab Posts NT$14.3 Billion Loss, While China Operations Deliver Steady Profit

As TSMC advances its U.S. expansion, growing attention has been placed on the contribution of its Arizona operations. According to its 2024 annual report, TSMC’s Arizona facility posted a loss of nearly NT$14.3 billion last year, making it the company’s most costly overseas site. In contrast, its Nanjing operations recorded a strong profit of nearly NT$26 billion during the same period.

A report from Economic Daily News highlights that TSMC’s Arizona subsidiary reported consecutive losses of NT$4.81 billion, NT$9.43 billion, and NT$10.924 billion in its 2021, 2022, and 2023 annual reports, with cumulative losses over the past four years exceeding NT$39.4 billion. The report notes that 2025 will mark the Arizona fab’s first full year of mass production, which could help narrow losses. However, it also warns that ongoing investment might prolong losses.

$440M USD .... certainly looks more dramatic in Taiwan Dollars.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Only a twisted mind person, or complete idiot would write an article with such a title and frame the numbers this way.
Arizona is state of the art, advanced node, huge fab and everything all new construction, (big) revenue and profits will come AFTER it moves into production.
China fab is 28nm and old fab with basically everything all depreciated. If tsmc cannot make money from their China fabs, the entire tsmc management team should be fired and put in jail :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
