Revenue reached NT$1.85 trillion, and for the cumulative January-September period revenue totaled NT$4.7 trillion, both setting new highs for the same period compared to previous years. Third quarter revenue, operating profit and net profit all hit a record high for the period. Earnings per share at NT$3.55 was also a new high for the three month period of July-September. Looking forward to the fourth quarter, which has entered the traditional peak season, operations will gradually ramp up, and there is expected to be significant quarterly and annual growth. For the full-year outlook for 2024, thanks to strong demand for AI servers, the outlook for significant growth remains unchanged, but with better visibility. Looking into 2025, Foxconn Chairman Young Liu laid out five major operating pillars: namely artificial intelligence, three major platforms (Smart Manufacturing, Smart EV, Smart City) and semiconductors. He predicted that 2025 will be the “AI Year” for the Group; at the same time, he said he is optimistic about next year, in which AI will be the most important growth driver for the Group. While inflation is likely to ease, the international political and economic situation, monetary policy and the development of the AI industry will be the most important influencing factors next year. Regarding the prospects for AI server products, Chairman Liu said that Foxconn has the capabilities of system design, vertical integration, and global footprint in this field, and will continue to maintain its leading advantage. Based on current trends, the AI server market can continue to develop rapidly in the next few years. In the July-September quarter, revenue reached NT$1.85 trillion, up 20% from a year earlier. At the same time, gross profit at NT$114.7 billion rose 12% on-year, operating profit at NT$54.8 billion climbed 19% on-year, and net profit (attributable to the owners of the parent company) at NT$49.3 billion gained 14% on-year. The quarter-on-quarter gains were 20%, 15%, 23%, and 41%, respectively, compared with the second quarter. Third quarter EPS at NT$3.55, was up NT$0.44, from NT$3.11 in the same period last year, and increased by NT$1.02 when compared to the second quarter. Five metrics including revenue, gross profit, operating profit, net profit, and EPS all set new highs for the third quarter. Chief Financial Officer David Huang said that although margins in the third quarter were affected by the product mix, due to the competitive advantage of Foxconn’s operating scale, the absolute amount of gross profit, operating profit and net profit all increased compared with the same period last year. As a technology manufacturing platform service company, Foxconn will continue to maximize profits through its competitive advantages in operational scale and vertical integration.

EPS in the first three quarters of this year reached NT$7.67, an increase of NT$1.25, from NT$6.42 in the same period last year. External interest in Foxconn’s view toward the United States in the aftermath of the presidential election has prompted media queries on the issue. Chairman Liu responded by saying that as a multinational enterprise, the Group is not concerned about the election itself, but is looking at factors such as investment policy, environment and business opportunities. Chairman Liu emphasized that Foxconn, operating in America, has seen at least 11 presidential election cycles come and go. The Group's footprint in the United States is based on its corporate mission: long-term value creation; business sustainability; constant pursuit of improvement; innovation; and global perspective. This mission has been deeply cultivated for nearly four decades. In America, nearly 50 factories have been set up, more than 5,000 people employed, and annual revenue of USD 25.6 billion generated. Such results are thanks to efforts contributed by Foxconn colleagues in America. As for Wisconsin, over the past three years, Foxconn’s investment in the state has reached USD 1 billion and the number of employees has increased by at least 42%; revenue in Wisconsin is up by 140% compared with the same period last year. From this year, Foxconn has become the largest taxpayer in Racine County. Because of Foxconn’s efforts, we have seen more companies invest locally, contributing to Wisconsin’s economy and employment. In the long run, having the advantage of Foxconn’s global footprint and new business development opportunities, the Group's factories in Wisconsin and Texas will benefit in the fields of AI and servers; the electric vehicle factory in Ohio will continue to introduce new customers.
