Packaging and Metering Institute's Capital Expenditure Shrinks More Than 26% This Year

Affected by the environment, the capital expenditures of the packaging and testing manufacturers have generally shrunk compared with last year. The capital expenditures of eight listed counters such as Riyueguang, Silicon Products and Licheng have shrunk by nearly RMB 20 billion this year, a decrease of over 26% compared with last year.

However, the three major packaging companies such as Riyueguang, Silicon Products, and Licheng have capital expenditures of more than 10 billion yuan this year; the sun, moon and moonlight have shrunk compared with last year, but they have reached a level of 22.5 billion yuan. As Sun Moonlight has announced the simultaneous expansion of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait next year, silicon products also emphasize the scale of 11 billion yuan next year, and the battle for competition between marketers will continue.

Astronomers Moonlight and Licheng are the biggest manufacturers of global logic packaging and testing and memory encapsulation investment this year. As the world’s economy is weakening, Sun Moon Light’s capital expenditures are nearly 6.5 billion less than last year; Si’s products are catching up with copper wire production capacity. Capital expenditures were higher than the estimate at the beginning of the year, reaching 11.52 billion yuan.

To increase the proportion of tests in East China, capital expenditure this year is also higher than the planned RMB 1.6 billion at the beginning of this year, reaching RMB 2 billion. Although Kyungwon Electric was reduced from last year, the amount was 3.6 billion yuan, which was not too small. Kyungwon Electric stressed that it will mainly increase the proportion of self-produced testing machines to improve its competitiveness. In light of the unfavorable environment, Shan State and SiGe have seen capital expenditures fall by more than 50% this year.
