We expect the semiconductor related industry and the market overall in 2022 to continue to perform well in terms of both volume increase and unit price increase due to the global shortage of semiconductors from 2021. According to World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS), Global semiconductor sales in 2021 were $553B (+ 26% year-on-year) and are expected to be $601B (+ 9%) in 2022.
Our company makes unique products that extend beyond the semiconductor and manufacturing equipment markets. Our Plating Chemical Liquid and AuSn paste, which are fine materials used in the semiconductor assembly, in addition to our thermistor temperature sensors which are used in semiconductor parts have grown by more than 40% in 2021 and are expected to increase another 5% in 2022.
With the current market situation of the major foundry companies in the semiconductor industry having large orders and high demand from their customers, they are expected to increase their capital investments in 2022. On the risk side, there is a serious shortage of some of logic and analog semiconductors, and very long lead-times affect many markets. It is said that not only chips used in automobiles and game consoles are tight, but also chips in semiconductor manufacturing equipment as well, which results in many lost opportunities.
