WASHINGTON – The three-month moving average semiconductor sales rose 22.7% in April from a year ago, reaching $57 billion, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) announced.
Sales rose 2.5% from March, the first sequential gain this year, the trade group added.
“Global semiconductor sales in April ticked up on a month-to-month basis for the first time in 2025,” said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO. “The global market continues to notch year-to-year growth driven by increasing sales into the Americas and Asia Pacific.”
April’s regional year-on-year growth was led by the Americas with a 44.4% jump, followed by Asia Pacific/All Other (23.1%), China (14.4%), Japan (4.3%), and Europe (0.1%). Month-on-month sales rose in China (5.5%), Asia Pacific/other (5.3%), and Europe (0.5%), while Japan and the Americas posted slight declines.
SIA also endorsed projections that global semiconductor sales will grow by 11.2% this year from last year to reach $700.9 billion and climb to $760.7 billion in 2026.
