First Quarter 2026 Guidance

The Company expects (in accordance with IFRSs):

  • Revenue tobe flat.
  • Gross margin to range from 18% to 20%.

The Management Comments

In the fourth quarter, the Company’s revenue was 2,489 million, a sequential increase of 4.5%. Gross margin was 19.2% and the capacity utilization rate remained at 95.7%.

In 2025, the reshuffling effects driven by the shift toward localization of the semiconductor industry chain continued throughout the whole year. According to the unaudited financial results, the Company’s revenue in 2025 increased by 16.2% year-over-year to $9,327 million, and gross margin increased by 3.0 percentage points to 21.0%. The Company’s capital expenditure in 2025 was $8.1 billion. Monthly capacity was 1,059 thousand standard logic 8-inch equivalent wafers by the end of the year, increased by around 111 thousand wafers compared to the end of previous year. Total shipment reached around 9.7 million wafers, and annualized capacity utilization rate increased by 8 percentage points year-over-year to 93.5%.

Looking ahead to 2026, for SMIC, the Company will face both opportunities from the industrial chain reshoring from overseas and challenges brought by the memory cycle. Combining the above factors, the Company’s first quarter guidance is as follows: Revenue is expected to be flat sequentially, and the gross margin is expected to be in the range of 18% to 20%. Based on the premise that there are no significant changes in the external environment, the Company's guidance for the year 2026 are: The revenue growth is expected to be higher than industry average in the same markets, and the capital expenditure is expected to be roughly flat compared to that of 2025.
