TSMC shifts Arizona operations from margin drag to profit, with strong demand and capacity limits through 2027.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) remains a Buy as its Arizona operations transition from being a margin drag to a profit contributor, supported by strong pricing power and high utilization. Recent margin pressures are explained by monthly revenue patterns and foreign exchange headwinds but are temporary and anticipated within current guidance. The company's revenue growth is now limited by capacity constraints rather than demand, with advanced packaging lines fully booked through 2027. While U.S. investment tariff risks pose strategic challenges, ongoing U.S. expansion supports near-term growth potential.
