The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) reports that global semiconductor sales reached USD 167.7 billion in the first quarter of 2025, marking an 18.8% increase compared to the same period last year. However, sales were down 2.8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.

Sales for the month of March 2025 totalled USD 55.9 billion, representing a 1.8% increase from February’s total of USD 54.9 billion. According to SIA, this marks the highest-ever sales figure for the month of March. 

“Global semiconductor demand remains high, with first-quarter sales substantially outpacing the first quarter of last year,” said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO, in a press release. “Year-to-year sales increased by more than 17% for the 11th consecutive month, driven by a year-to-year sales increase of roughly 45% in the Americas.”

Regionally, year-to-year sales in March were up in the Americas, Asia Pacific, China, and Japan, but down in Europe.
