Equipment purchases by Taiwan-listed companies, in English
TaiwanCapex tracks equipment acquisitions that TWSE- and TPEx-listed companies disclose on MOPS (Market Observation Post System) and organizes them in English for equipment suppliers outside Taiwan: buyer, vendor, amount, quantity, equipment type and install site.

Buyer letters group records from the same company. Quantity is shown as disclosed in the filing; many filings report "1 lot" only. Amount basis follows the filing wording: a single order (Single), a cumulative total with the same vendor, an approximate figure (Approx.), or a cap.
The delivered version includes the buyer company name, company code and the original vendor name for every record.
Method and data source
- Source: material-information announcements published on MOPS, Taiwan's public disclosure system for listed companies.
- Each record cites the company code and filing date of the original announcement, so it can be checked against MOPS.
- Vendor names are normalized to a common English form.
- Coverage: 893 equipment-acquisition filings since November 2024, across all buyer industries (after removing duplicate parent/subsidiary filings).
- Strongest coverage: back-end (OSAT and test), PCB and substrate, memory and mature-node foundries. TSMC does not disclose vendors filing by filing, so its equipment purchases are not covered.
