Foxconn, the world's largest electronics contract manufacturer, has released its latest financial results. Driven by robust demand in the artificial intelligence (AI) and smart device sectors, the company's revenue for June surged by 52.11% year-on-year to NT$821.8 billion, setting a new historical record for the month. For the second quarter of 2026, revenue reached NT$2.513 trillion, representing an 18.02% increase from the previous quarter and a 39.83% rise compared to the same period last year. Measured in US dollars, the growth was approximately 17.6% quarter-on-quarter and 39.2% year-on-year. This performance surpassed market expectations of around NT$2.372 trillion.
The company highlighted that this quarter's revenue set an all-time high, with the second quarter of 2025, at NT$1.797 trillion, now ranking as the second-highest on record. For the first half of 2026, cumulative revenue amounted to NT$4.64 trillion, a year-on-year increase of 34.99%. In US dollar terms, this growth was approximately 37.3%. This figure also establishes a new historical high for the first-half period.
Foxconn expressed optimism regarding its growth prospects for the third quarter, citing current order visibility. However, management also conveyed clear concerns in its outlook, cautioning that the current "volatile and complex global political and economic landscape," along with geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainties, could introduce potential fluctuations to the supply chain and the global consumer electronics market in the second half of the year.
Industry analysts note that while Foxconn's record-breaking results have bolstered market confidence in the technology hardware sector, the company's prudent stance on international political and economic conditions for the third quarter serves as a reminder for investors to closely monitor the ongoing challenges geopolitical conflicts pose to the stability of multinational supply chains.
