Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Dividend Increase

On November 10, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM) increased its dividend by 28.57%, from NT$7.00 to NT$9.00 per share. Each TSM ADR represents five common shares, so the new quarterly rate is NT$45.00 per ADR, or about $1.37 at the current exchange rate.

The dividend is payable on April 8, 2027, to shareholders of record on March 11, 2027.

TSM's contribution to DivGro's projected annual dividend income will increase by $60.81 to $273.65.
