According to TechNews’ report, Foxconn announced its October revenue on November 5th, reaching 741.2 billion NTD (New Taiwan Dollars). This represents a 12.20% month-on-month increase and a 4.56% year-on-year decrease, marking one of the highest revenues for the same period in recent years. For the accumulated revenue in the first ten months of this year, Foxconn achieved 5.494 trillion NTD, marking a 7.21% year-on-year decrease but still staying relatively high compared to past years.

Examining the performance by product categories on a monthly basis, the “Computing Products” category exhibited robust growth, benefiting from pre-holiday stockpiling due to the Chinese “Double 11” Shopping Festival and the Thanksgiving holiday in North America. The “Cloud and Network Products” category also saw strong growth as a result of increased demand from American server brand clients.

The “Smart Consumer Electronics” category experienced growth due to demand for new products, as well as early holiday stockpiling in preparation for Chinese Double 11 and the North American Thanksgiving. In contrast, the “Components and Other Products” category remained relatively stable month-over-month, as increased shipments of components for consumer intelligent products were offset by reduced demand in non-core business segments.

Looking at annual performance by product categories, the “Components and Other Products” category experienced substantial growth, attributed to an increased share of supply in consumer intelligent products and growth in shipments of automotive electronic components. The “Consumer Intelligent Products” category remained relatively steady.

In contrast, the “Cloud and Network Products” category displayed a more conservative momentum in client pull-ins, and the “Computer Terminal Products” category showed signs of weakening due to a slowdown in PC market demand.

Foxconn’s outlook for the fourth quarter remains positive, anticipating that the latter half of the year will benefit from the traditional peak season in the information technology industry. Therefore, operations are expected to gradually pick up each quarter, and the company maintains its view that the fourth quarter will exhibit significant growth compared to the third quarter.

Recent report from Anue has also suggested that Foxconn secured more than half of the orders for the MacBook series for the first time this year, along with strong sales of the iPhone 15 Pro, which are likely to drive revenue growth in the fourth quarter.
