Sector performance and outlook The global semiconductor industry saw robust sales growth in 1QFY2026 despite macroeconomic and trade volatilities brought by tariff negotiations during the period. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association ("SIA"), global semiconductor sales grew by 20.6% yoy to US$62.1 billion in July 2025 and 21.7% yoy to US$64.9 billion in August 2025, driven by strong memory and logic demand. Against this backdrop, the Group delivered a resilient performance in 1QFY2026, led by sales from its consumable tools segment, which grew 7.9% yoy to a 13-quarter high of S$13.7 million.
