INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Taiwan Semiconductor
Manufacturing Company Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of March 31,
2026 and 2025, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and
cash flows for the three months then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial
statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the
“consolidated financial statements”). Management is responsible for the preparation and fair
presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing
the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34
“Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory
Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the
consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.
Scope of Review
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Standards on Review Engagements of the Republic
of China 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of
the Entity”. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us
to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in
an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that caused us to believe that the
accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, its consolidated
financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and
2025 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by
Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed
and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

The engagement partners on the reviews resulting in this independent auditors’ review report are Shih

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are intended only to present the consolidated
financial position, financial performance and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles
and practices generally accepted in the Republic of China and not those of any other jurisdictions.

For the convenience of readers, the independent auditors’ review report and the accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version
prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between the English version and
the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-
language independent auditors’ review report and consolidated financial statements shall prevail.

IFRS 18 will supersede IAS 1“ Presentation of Financial Statements”. The main changes comprise:

operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations categories.
•The statement of profit or loss shall present totals and subtotals for operating profit or loss, profit or
loss before financing and income taxes and profit or loss.
•Provides guidance to enhance the requirements of aggregation and disaggregation: The Company
shall identify the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows that arise from
individual transactions or other events and shall classify and aggregate them into groups based on
shared characteristics, so as to result in the presentation in the primary financial statements of line
items that have at least one similar characteristic. The Company shall disaggregate items with
dissimilar characteristics in the primary financial statements and in the notes. The Company labels
items as “other” only if it cannot find a more informative label.
In addition, a consequential amendment has been made to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”, requiring
the Company to use operating profit or loss as the starting point when presenting cash flows from
operating activities under the indirect method.

Fair value hedge
The Company entered into interest rate futures contracts, which are used to partially hedge against the fair
value changes caused by interest rate fluctuation in the Company’s fixed income investments. The hedge
ratio is adjusted in response to the changes in the financial market and capped at 100%.
On the basis of economic relationships, the value of the interest rate futures contracts and the value of the
hedged financial assets change in opposite directions in response to movements in interest rates.
The main source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships is the credit risk of the hedged
financial assets, which is not reflected in the fair value of the interest rate futures contracts. No other
sources of ineffectiveness have emerged from these hedging relationships during the hedging period.
Amount of hedge ineffectiveness recognized in profit or loss is classified under other gains and losses, net.

Hedges of net investments in foreign operations
TSMC has designated the bank loans denominated in foreign currency as a hedge of net investments in
foreign operations to manage its foreign currency risk arising from investment in overseas subsidiaries.
The main source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships is driven by the material difference
between the notional amount of bank loans denominated in foreign currency and the net investment in
foreign operations. No other sources of ineffectiveness have emerged from these hedging relationships
during the hedging period. Refer to Note 19 (d) for gain or loss arising from changes in the fair value of
hedging instruments.

The Company signed a contract with the bank to sell certain accounts receivable without recourse and
transaction cost required. These accounts receivable are classified as at FVTOCI because they are held
within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling
financial assets.
In principle, the payment term granted to customers is due 30 days from the invoice date or 15 days from
the end of the month when the invoice is issued. Aside from recognizing impairment loss for credit-
impaired accounts receivable, the Company recognizes loss allowance based on the expected credit loss
ratio of customers by different risk levels with consideration of factors of historical loss ratios and
customers’ financial conditions, competitiveness and business outlook. For accounts receivable past due
over 90 days without collaterals or guarantees, the Company recognizes loss allowance at full amount.

The Company’s goodwill has been tested for impairment at the end of the annual reporting period and the
recoverable amount is determined based on the value in use. The value in use was calculated based on the
cash flow forecast from the financial budgets covering the future five-year period, and the Company used
annual discount rate of 9.5% in its test of impairment as of December 31, 2025 to reflect the relevant
specific risk in the cash-generating unit.

If such capital surplus is distributed as transferred to share capital, it is limited to a certain percentage of
the Company’s paid-in capital each year.
c.Retained earnings and dividend policy
TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation provide that, earnings distribution may be made on a quarterly basis
after the close of each quarter. Distribution of earnings by way of cash dividends should be approved by
TSMC’s Board of Directors and reported to TSMC’s shareholders in its meeting. When allocating
earnings, TSMC shall first estimate and reserve the taxes to be paid, offset its losses, set aside a legal
capital reserve at 10% of the remaining earnings (until the accumulated legal capital reserve equals
TSMC’s paid-in capital), then set aside a special capital reserve in accordance with relevant laws or
regulations or as requested by the authorities in charge. Any balance left over shall be allocated
according to relevant laws and TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation.
TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that profits of TSMC may be distributed by way of cash
dividend and/or stock dividend. However, distribution of earnings shall be made preferably by way of
cash dividend. Distribution of earnings may also be made by way of stock dividend, provided that the
ratio for stock dividend shall not exceed 50% of the total distribution.
-27-
The legal capital reserve may be used to offset a deficit, or be distributed as dividends in cash or stocks
for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital if the Company incurs no loss.
Pursuant to existing regulations, the Company is required to set aside an additional special capital
reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of stockholders’ equity, such as the
accumulated balance of the foreign currency translation reserve, the effectiveness of hedges of net
investments in foreign operations, unrealized valuation gain or loss from fair value through other
comprehensive income financial assets, gain or loss from changes in fair value of hedging instruments
in cash flow hedges, etc. For the subsequent decrease in the deduction amount to stockholders’ equity,
any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent that the net debit balance reverses.

b.Financial risk management objectives
The Company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit
risk and liquidity risk with the objective to reduce the potentially adverse effects the market
uncertainties may have on its financial performance.
-38-
The plans for material treasury activities are reviewed by the Audit and Risk Committee and/or Board
of Directors in accordance with procedures required by relevant regulations or internal controls. During
the implementation of such plans, the Company must comply with certain treasury procedures that
provide guiding principles for overall financial risk management and segregation of duties.
c.Market risk
The Company is exposed to the financial market risks, primarily changes in foreign currency exchange
rates, interest rates and equity prices. A portion of these risks is hedged.
Foreign currency risk
Substantially all the Company’s sales are denominated in U.S. dollars and over half of its capital
expenditures are denominated in currencies other than NT dollars, primarily in U.S. dollars, Japanese
yen and Euros. As a result, any significant fluctuations to its disadvantage in the exchanges rate of NT
dollar against such currencies, in particular a weakening of U.S. dollar against NT dollar, would have
an adverse impact on the revenue and operating profit as expressed in NT dollars. The Company uses
foreign currency derivative contracts, such as currency forwards or currency swaps, and non-derivative
financial instruments, such as foreign currency bank loans and bank deposits, to protect against
currency exchange rate risks associated with non-NT dollar-denominated monetary assets and
liabilities, net investments in foreign operations, and certain forecasted transactions. These hedges
reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the effect of foreign currency exchange rate movements on the
assets and liabilities.
Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on the Company’s total monetary assets and liabilities for the
three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, a hypothetical adverse foreign currency exchange rate
change of 10% would have decreased its net income by NT$576,921 thousand and NT$889,382
thousand ,respectively, after taking into account hedges and offsetting positions.
Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risks primarily in relation to its investment portfolio and
outstanding debt. Changes in interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash
equivalents and fixed income securities, the fair value of those securities, as well as the interest paid on
its debt.
The majority of the Company’s fixed income investments are fixed-rate securities, which are classified
as financial assets at FVTOCI or at amortized cost. For those fixed income investments classified as
financial assets at FVTOCI, changes in their fair value are recognized through other comprehensive
income; for those classified as financial assets at amortized cost, changes in their fair value are not
reflected in the carrying amount. Both classifications recognized in profit or loss if the assets are sold.
Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on the Company’s fixed income investments at the end of the
reporting period, interest rates increase of 100 basis points (1.00%) across all maturities would have
decreased the Company’s other comprehensive income by NT$4,385,342 thousand and NT$4,476,317
thousand for the  three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The majority of the Company’s debt is fixed-rate and measured at amortized cost and as such, changes
in interest rates would not affect future cash flows or the carrying amount.
The Company has entered and may in the future enter into interest rate derivatives to partially hedge the
interest rate risk on its fixed income investments and anticipated debt issuance. However, these hedges
can offset only a limited portion of the financial impact from movements in interest rates.
-39-
Other price risk
The Company is exposed to convertible preferred stocks, equity instrument investments, and other
investments price risk arising from financial assets at FVTPL and FVTOCI.
Assuming a hypothetical decrease of 10% in prices of the investments mentioned above at the end of
the reporting period, the net income would have decreased by NT$1,246,583 thousand and
NT$1,238,824 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and the
other comprehensive income would have decreased by NT$1,230,160 thousand and NT$986,946
thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
d.Credit risk management
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty may default on its contractual obligations resulting in
financial losses to the Company. The Company is exposed to credit risks from operating activities,
primarily accounts receivable, and from investing activities, primarily deposits, fixed-income
investments and other financial instruments with banks. Credit risk is managed separately for business
related and financial related exposures. As of the end of the reporting period, the Company’s maximum
credit risk exposure is equal to the carrying amount of financial assets.
Business related credit risk
The Company’s accounts receivable are from its customers worldwide. The majority of the Company’s
outstanding accounts receivable are not covered by collaterals or guarantees. While the Company has
procedures to monitor and manage credit risk exposure on accounts receivable, there is no assurance
such procedures will effectively eliminate losses resulting from its credit risk. This risk is heightened
during periods when economic conditions worsen.
As of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Company’s ten largest customers
accounted for 84%, 84% and 84% of accounts receivable, respectively. The Company considers the
concentration of credit risk for the remaining accounts receivable not material.
Financial credit risk
The Company mitigates its financial credit risk by selecting counterparties with investment grade credit
ratings and by limiting the exposure to any individual counterparty. The Company regularly monitors
and reviews the limit applied to counterparties and adjusts the limit according to market conditions and
the credit standing of the counterparties.
The objective of the Company’s investment policy is to achieve a return that will allow the Company to
preserve principal and support liquidity requirements. The policy generally requires securities to be
investment grade and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company assesses
whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk in the invested securities since initial
recognition by reviewing changes in external credit ratings, financial market conditions and material

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the expected credit loss increased NT$21,050
thousand and decreased NT$6,086 thousand, respectively. The changes were mainly due to adjusted
investment portfolio and fluctuations in exchange rates.
e.Liquidity risk management
The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund its
business operations over the next 12 months. The Company manages its liquidity risk by maintaining
adequate cash and cash equivalents, financial assets at FVTOCI-current, financial assets at amortized
cost-current and sufficient cost-efficient funding.

f.Fair value of financial instruments
1)Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated balance sheets
Fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value
is observable:
•Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities;
•Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included
within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or
indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
•Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs
for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The timing of transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy is at the end of reporting
period.
2)Fair value of financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Valuation techniques and assumptions used in Level 2 fair value measurement
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:
•The fair values of debt investments designated at FVTOCI are determined by market prices
provided by third party pricing services, or measured using inputs that are observable either
directly or indirectly.
•The fair values of forward exchange contracts are measured using forward rates and discount
rates derived from quoted market prices.
-45-
•The fair value of accounts receivable classified as at FVTOCI is determined by the present
value of future cash flows based on the discount rate that reflects the credit risk of
counterparties.
Valuation techniques and assumptions used in Level 3 fair value measurement
The fair values of financial assets at FVTPL and non-publicly traded equity investments are mainly
determined by using the asset approach, income approach or market approach.
The asset approach takes into account the net asset value measured at the fair value. On March 31,
2026, December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Company uses unobservable inputs derived
from discount for lack of marketability of 10%. When other inputs remain equal, the fair value will
decrease by NT$67,361 thousand, NT$64,123 thousand and NT$59,454 thousand, respectively, if
discounts for lack of marketability increase by 1%.
The income approach utilizes discounted cash flows to determine the present value of the expected
future economic benefits that will be derived from the investment. On March 31, 2026,
December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Company mainly uses unobservable inputs, which
include expected returns, discount rate of 8.8%, 8.9% and 8.8%, respectively and discount for lack
of marketability of 20%. With other inputs remain equal, if discount rate increases by 1%, the fair
value will decrease by NT$1,912,859 thousand, NT$1,812,408 thousand and NT$586,129
thousand, respectively; if discount for lack of marketability increases by 1%, the fair value will
decrease by NT$141,912 thousand, NT$133,626 thousand and NT$155,838 thousand, respectively.
For the remaining few investments, the market approach is used to arrive at their fair values, for
which the recent financing activities of investees, the market transaction prices of the similar
companies and market conditions are considered.
3)Fair value of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value
Except as detailed in the following table, the Company considers that the carrying amounts of
financial instruments in the consolidated financial statements that are not measured at fair value
approximate their fair values.

32. PLEDGED ASSETS
The Company provided negotiable certificates of deposit and time deposits recorded in other financial
assets as collateral mainly for court deposit and building lease agreements. As of March 31, 2026,
December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the aforementioned other financial assets amounted to
NT$381,920 thousand, NT$129,385 thousand and NT$134,029 thousand, respectively.
33. SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND UNRECOGNIZED COMMITMENTS
Significant contingent liabilities and unrecognized commitments of the Company as of the end of the
reporting period, excluding those disclosed in other notes, were as follows:
a.Under a technical cooperation agreement with Industrial Technology Research Institute, the R.O.C.
Government or its designee approved by TSMC can use up to 35% of TSMC’s capacity provided
TSMC’s outstanding commitments to its customers are not prejudiced. The term of this agreement is for
five years beginning from January 1, 1987 and is automatically renewed for successive periods of five
years unless otherwise terminated by either party with one year prior notice. As of the end of reporting
period, the R.O.C. Government did not invoke such right.
b.Under a Shareholders Agreement entered into with Philips and EDB Investments Pte Ltd. on March 30,
1999, the parties formed a joint venture company, SSMC, which is an integrated circuit foundry in
Singapore. TSMC’s equity interest in SSMC was 32%. Nevertheless, in September 2006, Philips spun-
off its semiconductor subsidiary which was renamed as NXP B.V. Further, TSMC and NXP B.V.
purchased all the SSMC shares owned by EDB Investments Pte Ltd. pro rata according to the
Shareholders Agreement on November 15, 2006. After the purchase, TSMC and NXP B.V. currently
own approximately 39% and 61% of the SSMC shares, respectively. TSMC and NXP B.V. are
required, in the aggregate, to purchase at least 70% of SSMC’s capacity, but TSMC alone is not
required to purchase more than 28% of the capacity. If any party defaults on the commitment and the
capacity utilization of SSMC falls below a specific percentage of its capacity, the defaulting party is
required to compensate SSMC for all related unavoidable costs. There was no default from the
aforementioned commitment as of the end of reporting period.
c.In February 2025, Longitude Licensing Ltd. and Marlin Semiconductor Limited (collectively, “Marlin”)
filed complaints with the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”) and the U.S. District Court for
the Eastern District of Texas alleging that TSMC and its customers infringe five U.S. patents. The ITC
instituted an investigation on March 21, 2025 and the lawsuit in the Eastern District Court for Texas
was statutorily stayed on April 23, 2025 pending the ITC investigation. The outcome cannot be
determined, and we cannot make a reliable estimate of the contingent liability at this time.
d.TSMC entered into long-term purchase agreements of materials and supplies, manufacturing services
and agreements of waste disposal with multiple suppliers. The relative minimum fulfillment quantity
and price are specified in the agreements.
e.TSMC entered into long-term purchase agreement of equipment and maintenance service. The relative
fulfillment period, quantity and price are specified in the agreement.
f.TSMC entered into long-term energy purchase agreements with multiple suppliers. The relative
fulfillment period, quantity and price are specified in the agreements.
g.Amounts available under unused letters of credit as of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025  and
March 31, 2025 were NT$447,293 thousand, NT$438,643 thousand and NT$496,415 thousand,
respectively.
-50-
h.The Company entrusted financial institutions to provide performance guarantees mainly for import and
export of goods, lease agreement and apply for subsidy. As of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025  and
March 31, 2025, the aforementioned guarantee amounted to NT$24,039,125 thousand, NT$23,375,215
thousand, and NT$8,687,244 thousand, respectively.
34. SIGNIFICANT LOSS FROM DISASTER
In January 2025, several earthquakes struck Taiwan. The resulting damage was mostly to inventories,
machinery and equipment. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recognized related earthquake losses
to be approximately NT$5.3 billion, net of insurance claim. Such losses were primarily included in the cost
of revenue and other operating income and expenses in net amounts.
On April 3, 2024, an earthquake struck Taiwan. The resulting damage was mostly to inventories, plant
facilities and machinery and equipment. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company recognized related
earthquake losses to be approximately NT$3 billion, net of insurance claim. Such losses were primarily
included in the cost of revenue and other operating income and expenses in net amounts.
