Newshot After three price hikes this year, STMicroelectronics is reportedly preparing another increase for January 2027
IT Home, November 12: TrendForce published a blog post today (November 12) reporting that STMicroelectronics plans to raise prices on some products on January 1, 2027. The company has already issued three price adjustment notices in 2026.
Citing the blog post, IT Home reports that a price adjustment letter from STMicroelectronics has leaked online, planning to raise prices on some products starting next year. It is not yet clear which products are involved or how large the increase will be.
The adjustment stems mainly from continuously rising operating and supply chain costs. The letter mentions that since the start of 2026, raw materials, logistics, labor and other production-related expenses have continued to increase. The company said that although it has taken measures such as improving efficiency and controlling costs, it still needs to keep investing in technology R&D and manufacturing capacity.
TrendForce noted that STMicroelectronics had previously issued three price adjustment notices:
- In late March, it notified several product lines of price increases effective April 26;
- In late May, it notified that some products would see price increases effective June 28;
- In late July, it again notified several product lines of price adjustments effective August 23.
Cost pressure is not affecting just one company. The report notes that Texas Instruments, NXP, onsemi and Infineon also made price adjustments this year, covering areas such as analog chips and power semiconductors. In addition, Reuters reported that STMicroelectronics CEO Jean-Marc Chery recently warned that some foundry and packaging capacity is shifting to more profitable AI products, creating bottlenecks in the supply of automotive and industrial chips.
