Revenue Growth: Q2 2025 revenue increased 3.7% sequentially to TWD 5,736 million, driven by strong memory product demand despite weakness in auto and industrial sectors.
Gross Margin Decline: Gross margin fell to 6.6%, down 280 basis points quarter-over-quarter, largely due to DDIC ASP cuts, higher electricity costs, and NTD appreciation.
Net Loss: The company reported a net loss of TWD 533 million (TWD 0.75 per share), mainly from significant foreign exchange loss (TWD 690 million).
Memory Strength: Memory product revenue jumped 21.2% QoQ and is expected to outperform DDIC in Q3 due to favorable supply/demand and price increases.
Q3 Outlook: Management expects continued strength in memory and improving conditions for OLED and auto panels, with memory OSAT price hikes of 5–18% to offset cost inflation.
CapEx Discipline: CapEx remains conservative, targeted at high-growth, higher-margin areas, while preserving a strong balance sheet.
Dividend Policy: No change in dividend policy is planned for 2026; management expects stable payouts supported by retained earnings.
