Capacity[5] for Foundry Segment

[5] 

Estimated capacity numbers are based on calculated maximum output rather than designed capacity. The actual capacity numbers may differ depending upon equipment delivery schedules, pace of migration to more advanced process technologies, and other factors affecting production ramp-up.

Foundry segment capacity grew from 1,461K 8-inch equivalent wafers in 1Q13 to 1,537K 8-inch equivalent wafers in 2Q13, which included the full quarter recognition of Fab8N capacity and Fab12A expansion.  The estimated capacity for the third quarter will be 1,548K 8-inch equivalent wafers due to capacity expansion at Fab12i.
