Wang&#8217;s 22/28nm portfolio remained the most significant contributor, with revenue increasing&nbsp;by 15%&nbsp;in 2024. Tape-outs for 22nm products are accelerating, and Wang expects to see higher revenue contributions from 2025 onwards.
Quarter-over-quarter, United Microelectronics&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">expects first-quarter</a> wafer shipments to remain flat and ASP in USD to decrease by mid-single-digit&nbsp;percentage.

The 2020 pandemic prompted countries including the U.S., Europe, and Japan to consolidate their semiconductor position by tapping chipmakers like Taiwan Semiconductor, Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), Samsung Electronics Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>), thereby reducing their dependence on China.

Additionally, the U.S. started restricting China&#8217;s access to advanced semiconductor technology, which Washington alleged China utilized to boost its military warfare position.
Washington also restricted China&#8217;s access to sophisticated Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s artificial intelligence chips.
The country also canvassed its allies, including Taiwan and the Netherlands (home to chip equipment maker ASML Holding (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/asml#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), to restrict semiconductor trade with China.
Meanwhile, Taiwan Semiconductor bagged a 64% share of the global foundry business in the third quarter of 2024, up from 62% in the second quarter, Taipei Times <a target="_blank" href="https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/biz/archives/2025/01/14/2003830149" rel="noreferrer noopener">cites</a> Counterpoint Research.
Last November, Counterpoint said Taiwan Semiconductor owed its moat to high utilization rates in its 5nm and 3nm processes, artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator demand, and smartphone sales.
Samsung came second with a 12% share backed by its 4nm and 5nm processes, Taipei Times cites Counterpoint.
China&#8217;s Semiconductor Manufacturing International came third after it secured 6%, backed by its 28nm process, Taipei Times cites Counterpoint.
United Microelectronics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UMC#NYSE">UMC</a>) tied with GlobalFoundries Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GFS#NASDAQ">GFS</a>) with a 5% share backed by demand in the Internet of Things and communications infrastructure markets.
The 3nm process scored a second position in the third quarter, bagging a 13% share, on the back of the full utilization of Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s production capacity, as production by Apple, Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), Intel gained momentum.
The 5 and 4nm processes bagged the numero uno position, securing 24% of the market in the third quarter, courtesy of demand for Nvidia&#8217;s Blackwell graphics processing units.
Taiwan Semiconductor plans to start producing its 2nm process at its fab in Hsinchu County&#8217;s Baoshan Township in 2025.
Goldman Sachs <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42825523/taiwan-semi-likely-for-upside-backed-by-ai-demand-and-advanced-node-pricing-analyst-says" rel="noreferrer noopener">expressed optimism over</a> Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s prospects, citing AI demand and advanced node growth. Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s price hikes for 3 and 5nm nodes in 2025 (while Intel and Samsung struggle to develop their AI technology moat) could boost its margins to over 59%.
