On June 26, ASE Technology rose 3.7% overnight, trading at 43.2 USD/share, with turnover of USD 1.7604 million. The stock continued its upward momentum driven by company-specific fundamental catalysts, notably outperforming the broader semiconductor sector which traded broadly lower.
On the news front, ASE Technology disclosed a massive expansion plan following its shareholder meeting, with the group and subsidiary SPIL collectively undertaking approximately 15 new construction and expansion projects. The company also revealed US expansion plans, intending to build two new factories in California on top of its existing two test facilities, while evaluating additional investment in Arizona driven by US client demand. Furthermore, its first fully automated FOPLP mass production line is scheduled for commissioning by year-end.
Additionally, the company reported May unaudited consolidated revenue of NT$63.03 billion, up 29% year over year, with assembly, testing, and material revenue surging 38% to NT$42.16 billion, reflecting robust advanced packaging demand. CEO Jason Chang indicated second-half performance may exceed expectations. Notably, the stock diverged sharply from sector peers, with Micron Technology down 3.28%, Marvell Technology down 2.56%, and Intel down 1.69%.
