North America-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers posted $3.74 billion in billings worldwide in October 2021 (three-month moving average basis), according to the October Equipment Market Data Subscription (EMDS) Billings Report published today by SEMI. The billings figure is 0.6% higher than final September 2021 billings of $3.72 billion and 41.3% higher than October 2020 billings of $2.65 billion.
“Monthly billings of North America-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers showed continued strength in October,” said Ajit Manocha, president and CEO of SEMI. “The push towards digital transformation along with robust demand for multiple disruptive applications continues to drive semiconductor equipment sales.”
The SEMI Billings report uses three-month moving averages of worldwide billings for North American-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers. Billings figures are in millions of U.S. dollars.
