As TSMC advances its U.S. expansion, growing attention has been placed on the contribution of its Arizona operations. According to its 2024 annual report, TSMC’s Arizona facility posted a loss of nearly NT$14.3 billion last year, making it the company’s most costly overseas site. In contrast, its Nanjing operations recorded a strong profit of nearly NT$26 billion during the same period.
A report from Economic Daily News highlights that TSMC’s Arizona subsidiary reported consecutive losses of NT$4.81 billion, NT$9.43 billion, and NT$10.924 billion in its 2021, 2022, and 2023 annual reports, with cumulative losses over the past four years exceeding NT$39.4 billion. The report notes that 2025 will mark the Arizona fab’s first full year of mass production, which could help narrow losses. However, it also warns that ongoing investment might prolong losses.
