A magnitude 6.4 earthquake in Taiwan has temporarily halted production at some TSMC factories, potentially impacting around 20,000 wafers. Nonetheless, this accounts for a minor portion of TSMC's overall output, and the financial repercussions are anticipated to be minimal. In response, TSMC has evacuated its employees and conducted thorough safety inspections. High-precision equipment will undergo recalibration before production resumes, which is expected to happen promptly. While past similar incidents have resulted in losses of $92 million for TSMC, the impact of this earthquake is forecasted to be less severe.
