The Semiconductor Industry Association has announced global semiconductor sales hit $56.9 billion during the month of October 2024, an increase of 22.1 % compared to the October 2023 total of $46.6 billion and 2.8 % more than the September 2024 total of $55.3 billion. Monthly sales are compiled by the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics organization and represent a three-month moving average. SIA represents 99 % of the U.S. semiconductor industry by revenue and nearly two-thirds of non - U.S. chip firms.

Additionally, a new WSTS (World Semiconductor Trade Statistics) industry forecast - endorsed by SIA (Semiconductor Industry Association) - has been revised upward for 2024. It now projects annual global sales will increase 19.0 % year-to-year, reaching a sales total of $626.9 billion this year. In 2025, global sales are projected to reach $697.2 billion, a year-to-year increase of 11.2 %. WSTS tabulates its semi-annual industry forecast by gathering input from an extensive group of global semiconductor companies that provide accurate and timely indicators of semiconductor trends.

“The global semiconductor market is closing out 2024 on a high note, as the industry reached its highest-ever monthly sales total in October and month-to-month sales increased for the seventh consecutive month,” said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO. “Total annual sales are now projected to increase by nearly 20 % in 2024 - higher than earlier forecasts - and then continue to grow by double-digits in 2025.”
