North America-based manufacturers of semiconductor equipment posted $2.61 billion in billings worldwide in November 2020 (three-month average basis), according to the November Equipment Market Data Subscription (EMDS) Billings Report published today by SEMI. The billings figure is 1.4 percent lower than the final October 2020 level of $2.65 billion, and is 23.1 percent higher than the November 2019 billings level of $2.1 billion.
“Billings of North America-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers remain robust, though November shows some expected tapering after billings registered record highs early this fall,” said Ajit Manocha, SEMI president and CEO.
The SEMI Billings report uses three-month moving averages of worldwide billings for North American-based semiconductor equipment manufacturers. Billings figures are in millions of U.S. dollars.
