On September 1, ASE Technology rose 4.03% in pre-market trading, trading at $38.478/share with turnover of $22,100, extending an overnight rebound of 3.03%. The stock had previously declined over 5% across two consecutive sessions amid broader semiconductor sector weakness.
The rebound appears driven by multiple fundamental catalysts. ASE Technology's parent ASE Technology Holding recently secured additional advanced packaging and testing orders from Google for its TPU chips and from Intel for its EMIB advanced packaging platform. Prior packaging and testing price increases of approximately 5% to 10% are now taking effect. Market estimates project Google TPU shipments to enter a mass-volume phase by 2028, with volumes potentially reaching 12 to 15 million units. ASE Technology, leveraging its 2.5D and 3D advanced packaging and high-end testing capabilities, is well positioned to benefit from this trend. The company also reported strong Q2 results, with EPS of $0.29 beating the consensus estimate of $0.17 by over 70%, while July revenue surged 43% year-over-year.
