Capacity[5] for Foundry Segment

Capacity during the first quarter was 1,563K 8-inch equivalent wafers.  The incremental increase in capacity was due to the advance node capacity expansion at Fab 12A.  The estimated installed capacity for the second quarter of 2014 will be 1,597K 8-inch equivalent wafers, due to the capacity expansion mainly from Fab 8N and advanced node expansion at 12" facilities.

(1) One 6-inch wafer is converted into 0.5625(6 sq./8 sq.) 8-inch equivalent wafer; one 12-inch wafer is converted into 2.25(12 sq./8 sq.) 8-inch equivalent wafers. Capacity total figures are expressed in 8-inch equivalent wafers.


[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.
