Summary created with AI assistance · Source: reuters.com
  • TSMC CEO C.C. Wei noted that US tariffs affect the company indirectly because tariffs target importers, not exporters like TSMC.

  • The firm is actively discussing tariff impacts with the US Department of Commerce to address potential cost increases in its US investments.

  • Strong demand for AI chips remains, surpassing supply even amid geopolitical tensions and tariff challenges.

  • TSMC has no plans to build factories in the Middle East due to insufficient customer base and faces margin pressure from Taiwan dollar appreciation.
  • Tariffs do have some impact on TSMC, but not directly. That's because tariffs are imposed on importers, not exporters. TSMC is an exporter.
    — C.C. Wei, CEO of TSMC, speaking at the annual shareholders meeting in Hsinchu, Taiwan.
