TREE NEWS update: TSMC said on September 13 it does not comment on market rumors and that capacity-related disclosures should follow its official announcements, after Taiwanese media cited supply-chain sources saying the company had for the first time revealed 2025 expansion targets. The reported plans would lift 2nm output from 90,000 wafers at end-2024 to 110,000 by mid-2025, a 22% increase, and 3nm from over 180,000 to 210,000 wafers, up more than 16%.
TSMC Declines to Comment on Reported 2nm, 3nm Capacity Expansion
The significance lies less in the wafer figures than in the disclosure channel: TSMC's refusal to confirm supply-chain-sourced numbers reinforces that its official capacity guidance, not media leakage, remains the market's only reliable signal. That distinction matters for anyone modeling leading-edge foundry supply, from fabless designers to equipment vendors, because it leaves the reported 2025 targets unverified. The open question is whether TSMC addresses advanced-node capacity on its own timetable or lets the rumor stand uncorrected.
