TAIPEI/PALO ALTO, U.S. -- Construction of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.'s first advanced chip plant in the U.S. is three to six months behind schedule, sources told Nikkei Asia, a sign that the world's biggest contract chipmaker is finding it more challenging to expand overseas than at home.
TSMC initially planned to start moving in chip production equipment by around September this year, but the company has told suppliers that this will be pushed back to around February or March of 2023, several people with knowledge of the matter told Nikkei Asia.
