On October 13, United Microelectronics fell 3.19% in Pre-Market Trading, trading at $21.83 per share with turnover of $569,000.

The move followed the company’s recently announced plan to raise $1.8 billion through dual-tranche convertible bonds, which has heightened market concern over potential future share dilution.

Background data showed September revenue reached NT$25.35 billion, up 27.22% year over year, while revenue for the first nine months totaled NT$204.0 billion, up 16.08%, indicating resilient operating trends. However, the market remained cautious because the company’s roughly $150 million convertible bond fundraising completed in early September had already pressured the stock, and the much larger new issuance has amplified dilution-related sentiment ahead of its next earnings report on October 28.
