International Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI) issued book-to-bill of North American manufacturers of semiconductor equipment ,0.75, the lowest record year in the past 12 months. SEMI said that at the fourth quarter investments in the semiconductor industry are conservative, but recent advanced technology investment will be continued, and advanced process demand strength has not been affected, confirming TSMC (2330), UMC have no strong demand. In October North American B / B value of 0.75 means that $ 100 per sale, it has received new orders worth $ 75,if less than 1,it means 1 semiconductor equipment market is shrank,if higher, it means market conditions showed signs of recovery. By the global economic slump impact, in terms of the semiconductor plant equipment willingness to invest ,only foundry is relatively positive,DRAM industry operates in a trouble, cutting plant or closing, market research firm, Gartner revised down 2012 global semiconductor output The amendments from 0.6 to negative 3% again. In october North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers B / B value came to 0.75, not only compared to 0.78 in September and then slipped, but also seven consecutive months of decline, is maintained at a level below 1 for five consecutive months, and made a low record in October November 2011. For TSMC, capital spending this year will remain at a record high of $ 8.3 billion, compared with $ 7.29 billion last year, a growth of 13.98% ,$ 2 billion in capital expenditures this year for UMC also unchanged, compared with $ 1.6 billion last year, also grow by 25%. According to SEMI data, 3 month average order amount of North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers is $ 743,200,000, a decrease of 18.6% compared to September, with year-on-year decline of 19.8 percent. |
