Revenues for UMC (Hsinchu, Taiwan) for January through August 2010 totaled NT$78.17 billion (about $2.44 billion), an increase of 52.3 percent compared to the same period in 2009.
The year-on-year gains are trending downwards but still look set to produce a major growth year. The sequential monthly increase was low compared with the 2009 when August was up a more typical 2.9 percent. In 2008 UMC's sales fell by 4.4 percent in August compared with the previous month.
