Investing.com-- Tokyo Electron Ltd. (TYO:8035) shares rose sharply on Friday after the Japanese chipmaking equipment maker forecast above-consensus earnings for the first half of the fiscal year, thanks to outsized AI-fueled demand.
A Taiwanese court on Monday sentenced a former Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing employee to 10 years in prison over the theft of trade secrets.
A court in Taiwan sentenced a former employee of Japanese computer chip equipment maker Tokyo Electron to 10 years in prison on Monday in a landmark case over trade secrets of the island’s leading chipmaker TSMC. Tokyo Electron was also fined 150 million new Taiwan dollars ($4.8 million) and four other people were sentenced to up to six years in jail. The heavy sentencing under Taiwan’s national security act and other statutes underscores Taiwan's efforts to protect the self-ruled island’s advanced technology and semiconductor sector, which are vital for its export-oriented economy as artificial intelligence booms.
Earnings per share for the fiscal third quarter were $1.47, besting Wall Street’s consensus estimate of $1.36, and up from $1.04 last year.
