Unveiling the hidden dimensions of data

SG&A Efficiency: A Tale of Two Tech Giants

In the ever-evolving world of semiconductors, understanding operational efficiency is crucial. Over the past decade, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) have showcased contrasting trends in their Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) expenses. From 2014 to 2023, TSMC's SG&A expenses surged by approximately 198%, reflecting its aggressive expansion and market dominance. In contrast, AMD's expenses grew by about 293%, indicating its strategic investments in innovation and market share recovery.

A Decade of Transformation

TSMC's expenses peaked in 2024, while AMD's data for the same year remains elusive. This missing data highlights the dynamic nature of the tech industry, where rapid changes can lead to gaps in financial reporting. As these giants continue to innovate, their SG&A efficiency will remain a key indicator of their strategic direction and market positioning.
