TAIPEI (Reuters) – ASE Technology Holding Co., the world’s largest chip packaging and testing provider, said on Thursday it expects its revenue from leading-edge advanced packaging and testing to more than double to $1.6 billion this year, as global demand for AI chips surges.
ASE CFO Joseph Tung said on an earnings call that 2024 revenue from this segment was $600 million, up from $250 million in 2023.
Of the projected billion-dollar increase in revenue in 2025, Tung said 75% will come from leading edge packaging and 25% from advanced testing.
ASE’s subsidiary, Siliconware Precision Industries, has been a key supplier to Nvidia for the past 27 years.
