Capex

Term · Semiconductors · MLC-T-SEM-000049

Capital expenditure, representing the funds used by a company to acquire, upgrade, and maintain physical assets such as property, buildings, and equipment. In the semiconductor industry, this primarily involves the immense investment required to construct and equip fabrication plants with advanced lithography, etching, and deposition tools. A single leading-edge fab can cost over ten billion U.S. dollars, reflecting the high barrier to entry in semiconductor manufacturing.
