Earnings preview and catalysts for 2Q26 analyst meeting
We suggest accumulating the stock given potential for full-year 2026 guidance to be raised.
What and when is the catalyst? TSMC will host its 2Q26 analyst meeting on July 16. In TSMC: Domination in leading-edge foundry continues; OW (29 June 2026), we noted that TSMC may lift 2026e revenue guidance to close to 40% Y/Y growth and raise capex to US$56bn, the high end of its initial US$52-56bn range. Looking ahead to 3Q26, we forecast revenue to be up in the low to mid-teens Q/Q given strong demand in both 3nm and 2nm products. The margin should improve further Q/Q, in our view, with better utilization rate, but higher costs and depreciation are potential offsets. See our preview and key questions to ask.
What are the potential outcomes for this event?
- Scenario 1: TSMC guides for 3Q26 revenue to be up 15% Q/Q in USD, fullyear revenue growth target raised to ~40% Y/Y, 3Q gross margin to be ~70%. 2026 full-year capex raised to US$60bn, and 2024-2029 five-year AI semi revenue CAGR is raised to 80%. TSMC cannot fulfill the strong AI demand until the end of the decade.
- Scenario 2 (base case): TSMC guides for 3Q26 revenue to be up 10%-15% Q/ Q in USD, full-year revenue growth target raised to high 30s (% Y/Y) or close to 40% Y/Y, 3Q gross margin to be ~67%-68% (flat Q/Q). Full-year 2026 capex updated to US$56bn, while five-year AI semi revenue CAGR raised to 70% from the current mid- to high 50s (%), mainly from memory cost increase. TSMC is trying to meet strong AI demand in 2028.
- Scenario 3: TSMC guides for 3Q26 revenue to be up 5%-10% Q/Q in USD, full-year revenue growth updated to ~35% Y/Y, 3Q gross margin to be ~66%67% (down Q/Q). 2026 full-year capex guidance unchanged at US$54-56bn, while five-year AI semi revenue CAGR is also unchanged at mid- to high 50s (%). AI demand is strong but could be affected by memory costs.
What are the potential implications of these outcomes for TSMC's share price?
Scenario 1: up 3-5%. Scenario 2: up 1-3%. Scenario 3: down 3-5%.
