Hsinchu, Taiwan – August 13, 2024 - ChipMOS TECHNOLOGIES INC. (“ChipMOS” or the “Company”) (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 8150 and Nasdaq: IMOS), an industry leading provider of outsourced semiconductor assembly and test services (“OSAT”), today reported consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, with strong revenue growth and expansion in net earnings. All U.S. dollar figures cited in this press release are based on the exchange rate of NT$32.45 against US$1.00 as of June 28, 2024.

 

All the figures were prepared in accordance with Taiwan-International Financial Reporting Standards (“Taiwan-IFRS”).

 

Revenue for the second quarter of 2024 was NT$5,809.6 million or US$179.0 million, an increase of 7.2% from NT$5,418.7 million or US$167.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 and an increase of 6.7% from NT$5,444.1 million or US$167.8 million for the same period in 2023.

 

Net non-operating income in the second quarter of 2024 was NT$127.6 million or US$3.9 million, compared to NT$156.3 million or US$4.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, and NT$222.4 million or US$6.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease of net non-operating income compared to the first quarter of 2024 is mainly due to a NT$128 million or US$3.9 million reduction in foreign exchange gains, which was partially offset by a NT$72 million or US$2.2 million increase in gain on disposal of non-current assets held for sale and interest income of NT$17 million or US$0.5 million. The difference between the second quarter of 2023 is mainly due to a NT$124 million or US$3.8 million decrease in foreign exchange gains and NT$47 million or US$1.4 million decrease in share of profit of associates accounted for using equity method, which was partially offset by the increase of gain on disposal of non-current assets held for sale of NT$72 million or US$2.2 million.

 

Net profit attributable to equity holders of the Company for the second quarter of 2024 was NT$450.6 million or US$13.9 million, and NT$0.62 or US$0.02 per basic common share, as compared to NT$437.8 million or US$13.5 million, and NT$0.60 or US$0.02 per basic common share in the first quarter of 2024.

Net earnings for the second quarter of 2024 were US$0.38 per basic ADS, compared to US$0.37 per basic ADS for the first quarter of 2024 and US$0.53 per basic ADS in the second quarter of 2023.
