Abstract

This research report presents mobile phone shipment volume forecast and recent quarter review of major Taiwanese contract manufacturers. The report includes major contract manufacturers' shipment volume and value, ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, customer ranking, shipment by maker, and price trend. Also provided are shipment breakdowns by system technology, operating systems, display, panel size, and production locations. The content of this report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with Taiwanese mobile phone contract manufacturers. The report finds that the industry's contract manufacturing shipment volume enjoyed both sequential and year-on-year growth in the fourth quarter of 2012, mainly due to the improved assembly yields of iPhone 5 and the launch of several low-priced models. Apple iPhones continued to take the largest share in Taiwanese makers' shipment, followed by BlackBerry and Sony in the fourth quarter of 2012. After the strong growth in the fourth quarter of 2012, it is expected that the growth momentum will slow down and the Taiwanese contract manufacturers' mobile phone shipment volume will see a double-digit sequential decline in the first quarter of 2013.
