GlobalWafers downbeat on US fabs’ turnaround

By Taipei Times

6 Mar 2025

GlobalWafers Co (環球晶圓), the world’s third-largest silicon wafer supplier, yesterday said it would take longer for the company’s new US fabs to break even if it did not secure chip subsidies from the US government as estimated previously.

The company’s remarks came as US President Donald Trump’s call yesterday to scrap the US CHIPS and Science Act, or the US$52 billiion semiconductor subsiday program, stoked concerns about the profitability of its two new advanced fabs in Texas and Missouri.
