Global Semiconductor Sales Increase 20.6% Year-to-Year in July
September 9, 2025 | SIAEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) today announced global semiconductor sales were $62.1 billion during the month of July 2025, an increase of 20.6% compared to the July 2024 total of $51.5 billion and 3.6% more than the June 2025 total of $59.9 billion. Monthly sales are compiled by the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) organization and represent a three-month moving average. SIA represents 99% of the U.S. semiconductor industry by revenue and nearly two-thirds of non-U.S. chip firms.
“Global semiconductor sales remained robust in July, topping June’s results and far outpacing July of last year,” said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO. “Growth continues to be driven by solid demand in the Asia Pacific region and the Americas.”
Regionally, year-to-year in July sales were up in the Asia Pacific/All Other (35.6%), Americas (29.3%), China (10.4%), and Europe (5.7%), but decreased in Japan (-6.3%). Month-to-month sales in May increased in the Americas (8.6%) and Asia Pacific/All Other (4.9%), remained steady in Europe (0.0%), and declined in Japan (-0.2%) and China (-1.3%).
