MILPITAS, CA – Global semiconductor equipment billings grew 5% year-over-year to $24.7 billion in the first quarter, SEMI said. Sequential billings in the seasonally soft first quarter declined 10%.

“Year-over-year first quarter equipment revenue growth is in sync with positive forecasts for 2022, as the semiconductor industry continues its robust increase of fab capacity,” said Ajit Manocha, SEMI president and CEO. “North America and Europe logged healthy quarter-over-quarter rises in equipment spending as they intensify efforts to bolster domestic chipmaking.”

Data are compiled by SEMI and the Semiconductor Equipment Association of Japan (SEAJ).
