Market Focus10-22 22:29

On October 22, United Microelectronics fell 5.12% in Regular Trading, trading near $18.80 per share, with turnover of $37.397 million.

The move came as the market continued to digest the company’s previously disclosed plan to raise $1.8 billion through dual-tranche convertible bonds, with potential future share conversion and dilution pressure still weighing on near-term sentiment.

Into the October 28 earnings release, consensus expects quarterly revenue of $2.279 billion, up 18.86% year over year, and adjusted EPS of about $0.23. Recent operating data had remained firm, with September revenue of NT$25.35 billion rising 27.22% year over year and January-September revenue of NT$204.0 billion up 16.08%, but the financing overhang appears to be the more immediate driver of trading.
