ASE Technology Reports Record Q3 2026 Revenue Driven by AI and Leading-Edge Packaging Demand
ASE Technology Holding Co. reported significant growth for the third quarter of 2026, with consolidated net revenue reaching TWD 244.2 billion. This represents a 45% year-over-year increase, fueled primarily by high demand for leading-edge capacities and AI accelerator components within its EMS and ATM segments. The company's ATM gross margins expanded to 30.6%, breaking through previous structural ceilings due to an increased mix of high-value LEAP services. To meet surging demand that currently outpaces supply, management has revised its full-year capital expenditure guidance upward to USD 11.5 billion. Strategic focus remains on scaling advanced technologies, including CoWoS and co-packaged optics (CPO), with significant revenue targets set for 2027. While the company faces constraints in facility space and rising interest expenses due to expansion debt, the overall outlook remains aggressive as AI-driven requirements continue to scale.
