Following the previous acquisition of a 30% stake in Silicon Products Precision, a subsidiary of Sun Moonlight Holdings, in Suzhou, which has invested in a packaging and testing plant in Suzhou, Ziguang Group recently announced that it has re-invested in Sun Moonlight, a subsidiary of Sun Moonlight Holdings, in Suzhou, which has reinvested in a packaging and testing plant in Suzhou. 30% equity.
Riyueguang Holdings announced yesterday that it would sell 30% of Riyuexin to Continental Ziguang Group for a total price of USD 95.33 million, equivalent to approximately NT $ 2.917 billion. Sun Moonlight said that this cooperation case can seize the opportunity of the Mainland's fast-growing market and expand the mainland semiconductor market through strategic alliances. The funds obtained will be used to inject the Sun Moonlight Group's investment and operations in Taiwan.
With the support of the mainland's official policies, Ziguang Group has already invested in Hongmao Micro, a Shanghai packaging and testing plant invested by Nanmao, and Silicon Division, a Suzhou packaging and testing plant, which has been reinvested in silicon products. Now it has formed an alliance with Sun Moonlight Holdings to acquire Sun Moon New Equity. The packaging and testing market in mainland China has gradually taken hold.
The industry pointed out that Ziguang Group invested in three 12-inch factories in mainland China, including a reinvestment in Yangtze River Storage. It already has a 12-inch factory in Wuhan, and will begin mass production of 3D NAND in the second half of the year. Inch factory. In the future, Ziguang is expected to entrust the three packaging and testing plants that it has invested for packaging and testing orders to OEM, and ASE Holdings will directly benefit.
Furthermore, due to the continuous construction of a 12-inch factory in the mainland in recent years, the production capacity will be gradually opened in the second half of this year, which is equivalent to the release of huge back-end packaging and testing OEM orders. The alliance between Sun Moonlight Holdings and Ziguang Group, through Ziguang Group in The status of the mainland semiconductor market can naturally ensure that more packaging and testing orders can be won.
Suzhou Riyuexin is a packaging and testing plant jointly established by ASE and NXP in 2007. ASE holds 60% of shares and NXP holds 40% of shares. The factory mainly undertakes NXP's microcontrollers (MCUs) and power semiconductors. Wait for the latter stage of packaging and testing business, if there is excess capacity, Sun Moon will come forward to fight for other semiconductor factories to place orders.
In the past few years, including Taiwanese analog IC factories such as Richtek, the packaging and testing orders were handed over to Sun Moon Shin.
Under the stable orders of NXP, Sun and Moon have been profitable since its establishment. Last year, it made a profit of approximately USD 25.92 million and a net value of USD 166 million. However, due to changes in its outsourcing manufacturing strategy and the fact that it was negotiating with Qualcomm to merge at the beginning of the year, NXP decided to reduce reinvestment and joint venture projects. Therefore, it will hold a 40% new moon and sun equity at the beginning of this year to 1.27. The price of US $ 100 million was sold to Riyueguang. Riyueguang sold 30% of its new equity to Ziguang yesterday.
