TSMC (TSM) Q2 2026 Earnings News: Record Profit Beat as AI Demand Offsets Margin Pressure

AI Market Summary
TSMC posted a record Q2 profit beat, with revenue at the top of guidance as AI and HPC demand drove a richer leading-edge mix. Management raised full-year USD growth and lifted 2026 capex, underscoring strong end-demand and an accelerated 2nm buildout. The market reaction was mixed as lower Q3 gross-margin guidance and ramp costs weighed on the ADR despite stronger growth expectations.
