GSA's report noted that over the past year for a total of over 38 semiconductor capital transaction, the cumulative transaction amount of approximately $ 551 million, compared with $ 563.8 million the previous year lower. However, in July 2014 only two companies ── China LED chip manufacturers Lattice Power (Lattice Power Corp.) Embedded processor with the British fabless company XMO achieved a total investment amount of $ 106.2 million, compared with last month (6 month) growth of 47.5%. The report noted that from January to July this year, the amount of investment increased by 70.6%.

But she admitted that the current situation "is tending to stabilize and achieve some growth momentum."

"According to the report, over the past 12 months, the fabless / IDM total number of transactions decreased by 11, while the number of transactions semiconductor suppliers has increased by four.
