    TSMC Q3 Consensus Forecasts 52.4% EPS Surge Ahead of October 15 Report → Bullish NVDA

    Question

    TSMC Q3 Consensus Forecasts 52.4% EPS Surge Ahead of October 15 Report → Bullish NVDA

    Direct answer

    Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. enters its October 15 reporting date with consensus modeling EPS of $4.45 and quarterly revenues of $45.62 billion. The 37.83% projected top-line growth reflects sustained leading-edge foundry utilization across hyperscale accelerator customers. The equity has gained 10.12% over the trailing month, outperforming broader semiconductor benchmarks as investors price in high packaging capacity utilization and firm wafer contract pricing through 2027. — bullish pressure on NVDA. — bullish pressure on NVDA.
