According to Singaporean media, Singaporean chip manufacturers license the semiconductor to announce again a few days ago, because the low-price of the chip leads to the fact the camp accepts and reduces, the company may present loss in the third quarter.

Has licensed the semiconductor and sent out the prewarning of profit of the third quarter on July 27, it is estimated it may obtain net profit of 5 million dollars in third quarter, also may face net deficiency of up to 5 million dollars, the sales amount will drop by 6.6% to 332 million dollars. And 24,400,000 dollars of profit Damien of the third quarter last year, sales amount was 355 million dollars. License the third VIP customer AMD of the semiconductor, begin to look for the cheaper chip in order that while resisting competing with the leaders of this trade Intel, the group chip price begins to drop.

As the intersection of world and the second largest the intersection of PC and the intersection of processor and AMD of manufacturer, announce its cubic achievement suffer the loss continuously too will it be July this year. The Singaporean analyst of Citigroup points out, it is very faint to licenses the semiconductor to get in touch AMD and, because AMD is making great efforts to retrieve some market share, it should be much more difficult to may license the anabatic speed of the semi-conductive price than expected. The market is said in this key customer to want to transfer producing partly to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. now. Privileged vision of the future rival compare very unfavorable, the latter estimate income to increase about 15% next quarter.

Mix and manage and bring the pressure to company in many kinds of technological crafts, the nodal PC business of 90 nanometers is weak continuously, the technical development of 65 nanometers of nodes is lower than expectancy. Licensing the semiconductor hopes to begin 45 nanometers to produce at the end of 2007, in order to expand products and customer's foundation. It is estimated the 65 nanometers of business of its high side could begin to have an effect until the second half of 2008. Market forecast, license to lose about 9 million dollars in 2007.

License semi-conductive president Xie SongHui and state frankly too, ones that were expected before behavior and group in the third quarter are the same, will present the decline. However, license the semiconductor to still keep to the expectancy of the average selling price of the third quarter, reduce, up to 7% than last season, eight the intersection of chip and between 846 and 886 dollars price, it is estimated the utilization factor of the productivity rises to some extent, rises to 84% 74% of last year

The stock price which licensed the semiconductor drops by 18% this year. The company is in 0.9% to 1.05 yuan of drop of Friday of stock price of new friend, it drops in Nasdaq's aggregate index number by 1.2% to 6.78 dollars. Licensing the semiconductor will release the achievement of third quarter on October 26.
