Global semiconductor sales reached $59 billion during the month of May 2025, an increase of 19.8% compared to the May 2024 total of $49.2 billion and 3.5% more than the April 2025 total of $57 billion, according to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA).

Monthly sales are compiled by the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) 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.

“Global semiconductor sales remained strong in May, edging above the previous month’s total and remaining well ahead of sales from the same month last year. Growth in the global chip market continued to be fueled by strong demand in the Americas and Asia Pacific/All Other regions,” said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO.

Regionally, year-to-year in May sales were up in the Americas (45.2%), Asia Pacific/All Other (30.5%), China (20.5%), Japan (4.5%), and Europe (4.1%). Month-to-month sales in May increased in Asia Pacific/All Other (6.0%), China (5.4%), Europe (4.0%), the Americas (0.5%), and Japan (0.2%).
