Near-term (0-6mo)
Earnings reported today (4/16): revenue and margin beat. Q2 guidance up. Key metric is CoWoS capacity expansion timeline — reportedly adding 2x capacity in 2026 but still short of demand.
Mid-term (6-24mo)
Arizona Fab 1 entering production in 2026; Japan Kumamoto fab ramping. N2 node ramp in H2 2026 is the next capacity cliff. CoWoS/SoIC advanced packaging remains the true bottleneck — watch for capex allocation toward packaging vs. front-end.
Catalysts
- Q2 guidance beat just reported
- Arizona fab production ramp updates
- CoWoS capacity expansion milestones
- N2 node qualification timeline
Risks
- Geopolitical Taiwan risk unchanged
- US export controls to China could reduce utilization
- Advanced packaging capex intensity rising faster than revenue
