Taiwan Semiconductor will host its fourth-quarter analyst meeting on Jan. 16. Lu expected another year of solid revenue growth in 2025E by 26.8% for Taiwan Semiconductor, following 29.4% revenue growth in 2024E (all in USD terms), driven by strong demand in leading-edge nodes mainly supported by continuous strong momentum from AI. The analyst also noted a more favorable competition landscape, with $Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.(SSNLF)$ foundry and $Intel(INTC)$ foundry facing more difficulties as they move to more advanced nodes. Therefore, he modeled a mid-high single-digit price hike for 3nm and 5nm nodes and a 10%+ price hike for chip-on-wafer-on-substrate starting in 2025.
