ASE Technology Holding Co., Ltd. Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results

ASE Technology Holding Co., Ltd. has unveiled its unaudited consolidated financial results for the third quarter of 2025, reflecting a significant uptick in both revenues and net income. This growth reinforces ASEH’s position as a leading player in the semiconductor assembly and testing services sector.

Financial Highlights

In the third quarter of 2025, ASE Technology reported net revenues of NT$168,569 million, showcasing a year-over-year increase of 5.3% and a sequential rise of 11.8%. The net income attributable to shareholders rose to NT$10,870 million, a considerable increase from NT$9,733 million in the same quarter the previous year and NT$7,521 million in the second quarter of 2025. The basic earnings per share for the quarter reached NT$2.50 (approximately US$0.168 per ADS), up from NT$2.25 in Q3 2024 and NT$1.74 in Q2 2025. The diluted earnings per share stood at NT$2.41 (US$0.162 per ADS), marking an increase from NT$2.18 in Q3 2024.

Consolidated Results Breakdown

The consolidated results breakdown shows that revenues from packaging operations, testing operations, and electronic manufacturing services (EMS) made up approximately 47%, 11%, and 41% of the total net revenues in Q3 2025, respectively. The remaining 1% came from other sources. The cost of revenues for the quarter was NT$139,692 million, a rise from NT$125,063 million in Q2 2025, while the gross margin improved by 0.1 percentage points to 17.1% compared to the prior quarter.

Operational Metrics

ASEH’s operational metrics for the quarter highlighted a solid performance in terms of margins as well, with an operating margin of 7.8%, up from 6.8% in the previous quarter. Non-operating items showed a mixed result, with a net interest expense of NT$1,428 million and a net foreign exchange loss of NT$3,790 million attributed to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the New Taiwan dollar. However, a net gain of NT$5,191 million on the valuation of financial assets and liabilities contributed favorably to the company’s financial standing.

Growth in ATM and EMS Segments

Specifically within the Advanced Technology Manufacturing (ATM) segment, net revenues hit NT$100,289 million, which reflects a year-over-year growth of 16.9% and an 8.3% increase from the prior quarter. The gross margin for this segment improved to 22.6% from 21.9% in Q2. Meanwhile, the EMS segment reported net revenues of NT$69,022 million, showing an 8.4% decrease compared to Q3 2024 but a remarkable 17.4% increase from the previous quarter.
