Market Focus07-30

On July 30, United Microelectronics rose 5.06% in regular trading, trading at $18.58/share, with turnover of $96.83 million.

On the news front, the company reported Q2 EPS of $0.54, beating the consensus estimate of $0.15 by 260%, while revenue of $2.176 billion also exceeded the $2.060 billion estimate. Wafer shipments grew 10.6% sequentially with capacity utilization rising to 85%, driven by strong communications and consumer demand.

The board simultaneously approved approximately $50 billion in capital expenditure budget for 2026-2027, including cleanroom expansion at its Singapore P4 facility and construction of a new fab at its Tainan Science Park in Taiwan, targeting AI, edge computing, and silicon photonics opportunities. The company also announced plans to issue up to NT$10 billion in convertible bonds to support its expansion strategy.
