S&P Global announced that after seasonal adjustment, Taiwan's March S&P Manufacturing PMI fell to 53.3 from the previous over four-year high of 55.2, reflecting a slowdown in Taiwan's manufacturing growth but still indicating significant improvement. Overall, the economic conditions have improved for four consecutive months.
In March, Taiwan's manufacturing growth slowed but maintained significant improvement. The expansion pace of production volume, new orders, and export business all slowed compared to February, yet remained among historical highs. On the other hand, due to the impact of the Middle East conflict, production costs surged, and supplier performance significantly deteriorated; however, businesses remain highly optimistic when assessing production prospects.
The slowdown in production volume expansion led to the PMI index's decline. The seasonally adjusted output index fell from February's multi-year high but remained above the long-term average, with a noticeably accelerated expansion pace. Companies generally reported increased production in response to customer demand.
The growth performance of new orders at the end of the first quarter was similar, with the expansion pace slowing but still the second highest since January 2025. Respondents revealed that domestic demand and export markets supported order growth, particularly in the semiconductor and AI industries. Although the growth of export orders contracted compared to February, it remained significant, with respondents noting the largest sales increases in Europe, Japan, China, and the US.
In response to the influx of orders, manufacturers increased procurement in March for the fourth consecutive month. Although the expansion pace slowed compared to February, it remained significant and above the long-term average. Many companies anticipate suppliers will raise prices, thus expanding procurement, with inventory growth slowing compared to the previous month but still at a moderate pace and among historical highs.
With stronger demand for inputs and the Middle East conflict disrupting supply chains, supplier performance deteriorated further. Notably, the delay in delivery times was the most severe since June 2022.
The increase in procurement costs was the second highest in nearly four years, reflecting significant price pressure. Many manufacturers reported that disruptions in the supply chain caused surges in oil and raw material prices.
Increased cost pressures prompted companies to raise prices again in March, with the increase being the largest since July 2022.
Despite continued improvement in Taiwan's manufacturing order situation and production volume, the number of employees hired in March fell instead of rising, marking the first decline in three months, though the decrease was not significant. Companies generally indicated that vacancies were not filled after voluntary resignations, leading to a decline in employment numbers.
Under these circumstances, the number of unfinished orders continued to increase significantly, reflecting that capacity pressure has not eased, with the backlog speed accelerating to the second highest since early 2022.
For production in the coming year, companies remained very optimistic in March, with optimism similar to February's 21-month high. Manufacturers generally believe that strong global demand will continue to drive business growth, especially in AI-related industries. However, many companies expressed concern about the Middle East conflict and worried about its impact on supply chains and price trends. (da/j)
