North America-based manufacturers of semiconductor equipment posted US$3.14 billion in billings worldwide in February 2021 (three-month average basis), logging a record high for the second consecutive month, according to SEMI.

The billings figure is 3.2% higher than the revised billings level of US$3.04 billion in January, and is 32% above the February 2020 billings level of US$2.37 billion.

"February billings of North America-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers once again exceeded US$3 billion, powered by robust secular semiconductor demand across diverse end-use markets," said Ajit Manocha, SEMI president and CEO. "The digitization of industries worldwide continues to drive rising investments in semiconductor equipment."
