Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Co | Asia Pacific
Beneficiary of mature node upcycle and EMIB supply chain
| What’s Changed Powerchip Semiconductor | From | To |
|---|---|---|
| Price Target | NT$71.00 | NT$88.00 |
We raise our price target from NT88. EPS estimates are down 46% for 2026 but up 71% for 2027. PSMC is set to benefit from a mature node shortage in 2H27, AP Memory’s emerging revenue streams from the EMIB supply chain, and continued price hikes and utilization rate improvements.
Mature node up-cycle begins : In The Foundry Floorplan: All boats riding on the same tide - mature node up-cycle begins, we highlighted that we expect a mature node capacity shortage in 2H27, arising from fast growth of AI power ICs as a key part of future AI infrastructure. AI power ICs should more than offset weak consumer and smartphone semi demand. AI infrastructure build-outs are likely to last another two years, so some smartphone and PC customers are now worrying about future mature node shortages. We have therefore raised our ratings and/or valuations of multiple mature node foundries.
A beneficiary as AP Memory’s foundry partner in S-SiCap production: We estimate that this will make up 3% of PSMC’s total revenue in 2026, 5% in 2027, and 9% in 2028. In Old Memory - Reaffirming Asymmetric Risks, we discussed how AP Memory’s S-SiCap business may benefit from: 1) penetration of the EMIB supply chain by supplying IPDs (integrated passive devices) to Humufish TPUs in 2027/28; 2) high growth of AI GPU shipments for China. See Exhibit 1 .
Memory price hikes continue: For the traditional memory foundry business, PSMC continues to engage in monthly price negotiations with customers; we expect memory foundry price hikes to continue. See also Shawn Kim’s report, Agentic AI The Surge Begins: we have expanded our memory TAM forecast to reflect agentic AI demand, reflecting our continued bullish view on the broader memory market.
EPS estimates down 46% for 2026 but up 71% for 2027: We introduce our 2028 forecasts. See PSMC: Earnings Estimate Revisions .
Raise price target from NT88; remain OW: We now apply a target 2026e P/B of 2.1x, on BVPS of NT50.9 BVPS). We estimate the revenue mix in 2027 between memory, analog, ad logic to be ~48%/30%/22%. If we attribute 52% of the 2027e BVPS to the analog and logic businesses and assume a 3.2x P/B ratio for them (vs. 2027e P/B of 3.3x for UMC and 3.7x for VIS), it would contribute NT$85 of our price target, - implying an almost free valuation for the memory business.
