Revenue Analysis:
3Q09 business saw a continued improvement with demand growing across the board. Sequentially, revenues from computer applications grew the most with 29% quarter-over-quarter growth rate, followed by communication’s 25% and consumer’s 11%, respectively.
As a result of continued ramp-up of our 40/45nm technology, revenues from 40/45nm were more than quadrupled during the quarter and accounted for 4% of total wafer sales. Meanwhile, revenues from 65nm and 90nm each accounted for 31% and 18% of total wafer sales. Overall, revenues from advanced technologies (0.13-micron and below) represented 67% of total wafer sales, two percentage points up from prior quarter.
Revenues from IDM customers accounted for 20% of total wafer sales in 3Q09, two percentage points increase from 2Q09.
From a geographic perspective, revenues from customers based in North America accounted for 70% of total wafer sales, five percentage points up from prior quarter. Meanwhile, sales from Asia Pacific, China, Europe and Japan accounted for 13%, 3%, 11%, and 3% of total wafer sales, respectively.

Gross Profit Analysis:
Gross margin for the third quarter 2009 was 47.7%, up from 46.2% of prior quarter. The 1.5 percentage points improvement in gross margin was primarily due to a higher level of capacity utilization and continued cost improvement, partially offset by a decline in pure price and unfavorable exchange rate.

Summary of Cash Flow:
Cash generated from operating activities totaled NT$46.66 billion during the quarter, up from NT$24.52 billion in 2Q09 as a result of higher level of business activities, partially offset by NT$7.49 billion for 2008 employee profit sharing payment.
Net cash used in investing activities was NT$51.51 billion in 3Q09, reflecting the capital expenditures of NT$32.04 billion and investments in fixed income instruments of NT$14.83 billion.
Net cash used in financing activities was NT$76.99 billion during the quarter, as we paid NT$76.88 billion for cash dividends.
As a result, TSMC ended 3Q09 with a cash balance of NT$156.94 billion.

Capacity:
Total managed capacity was 2,444K 8-inch equivalent wafers in the third quarter, decreased by 1.6% from 2,483K in 2Q09, mainly due to capacity migration to advanced nodes.
TSMC managed capacity in 4Q09 is expected to increase by 3.6% to reach 2,532K 8-inch equivalent wafers.
Total managed capacity in 2009 is expected to reach 9,955K 8-inch equivalent wafers, representing an increase of 6.2% from 9,377K 8-inch equivalent wafers in 2008, while capacity for 12-inch wafer fabs is expected to increase by 11% year-over-year, reaching 42% of total capacity.
