IC packager Siliconware Precision Industries (SPIL) is expected to see its fourth-quarter sales meet the company's guidance of a 3-9% sequential decrease to NT$19.7-21 billion (US$620.5-661.4 million), according to market sources.
SPIL saw its revenues edge down 2.4% to NT$7.21 billion in November, affected by inventory adjustments at clients in China, the source noted.
However, the sources indicated that demand for IC parts in China has rebounded recently, which will allow SPIL to run at high utilization rates in December.
Meanwhile, SPIL has set its capex for 2015 at NT$14.5 billion, according to the company. The IC packager's capex for 2014 is expected to reach NT$15.4 billion, said the sources. |
