According to global manufacturing market tracking reports from IHSiSuppli , consumer demand for wireless products such as mobile phones and tablet PCs remain strong and will help the overall semiconductor industry to achieve a moderate growth in 2012. However, to prevent the semiconductor industry on track,to take a proper inventory management in the first half remains critical.In 2012 semiconductor revenue is expected to reach $ 324.6 billion, an increase of 4% from $ 311.4 billion last year. Compared with last year's 1 percent growth rate ,this year the growth has been improved, and all signals have shown that as the global economy stabilizes, the semiconductor industry will regain its footing. Unless the unexpected economic downturn of global market,or a major misstep of semiconductor industry, otherwise operating income will continue to rise in the next few years and will reach $ 412.8 billion in 2016.Semiconductor suppliers cut 7.5 percent of the stock in the past six months , but from the total amount and the number of days of inventory point, the overall inventory is still at record highs. Therefore, the semiconductor industry is still in a fragile state. In order to maintain demand, manufacturers must further reduce inventory; to pay close attention to inventory levels, and seek to reduce inventory in the first half of the year. Most of the inventory is in the hands of IDM vendors, such manufacturers design and manufacture semiconductor chips for customers. Traditionally, that the IDM vendors cut inventory is less positive than a fabless semiconductor manufacturer. It is because of the IDM's product portfolio, and IDM believe in good market conditions it is faster to reduce inventory. Since the end of the second quarter in 2011 the IDM vendors reduced stock only 5.4%. Consider IDM manufacturers have 77-79% of the average holding finished goods inventory , the above-mentioned decline is negligible. IHSiSuppli Company believes that only to reduce the overall inventory for at least another 5 percent will achieve sustainable growth.
