Taiwanese IC design leader MediaTek reported a record-breaking NT$64.183 billion (approximately US$1.99 billion) in consolidated revenue for August 2026, marking a 32.41% month-on-month and 44.08% year-on-year increase. This surge, surpassing the previous record set in March 2026, also pushed year-to-date revenue for the first eight months to NT$413.991 billion, up 5.76% annually. The strong performance positions MediaTek to meet its Q3 revenue forecasts.
This revenue milestone comes as MediaTek prepares to launch its new Dimensity 9600 series flagship chip, manufactured on TSMC’s 2nm process, on September 15th. The company also recently secured a $3.5 billion investment from NVIDIA, with Alphabet participating for an additional $400 million, to deepen collaboration in AI data center, AI PC, and automotive sectors, specifically adopting NVIDIA’s NVLink Fusion chip integration platform. These events underscore MediaTek’s strategic shift into higher-value AI and custom ASIC markets.
