TSMC and Intel Net Income Comparison 2024Q2

TSMC and Intel Net Income Comparison 2001 Q1 to 2024 Q2 | TSMC (Net Income 8.2 billion) dominates Intel (Net Income – 1.6 billion) in the semiconductor foundry market.

We compared the quarterly net profits of the two leading semiconductor foundries in the world, TSMC and Intel, covering the period from the first quarter of 2001 to the second quarter of 2024. It can be seen that for most of the time before 2020, Intel’s net profit was greater than TSMC’s. However, starting in the second quarter of 2022, TSMC’s net profit surpassed Intel’s, thanks to its technological advantage in semiconductor foundry services. Over the past two years, Intel has even experienced losses in the first two quarters of 2024, while TSMC has consistently maintained profitability every quarter for more than 23 years, which is quite impressive. We also analyzed the significance behind this shift in profitability, including Intel’s decision in 2021 to re-enter the foundry market and the competition and challenges it has faced since then.
