Is it selling more, and how much does it keep?
KIRA · Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd had $122.2B of revenue in fiscal 2025, up 35.6% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +21.9% a year on average. Its operating margin was 50.8%, up 5.2 pts: of every 100 in sales, about 51 is left after running the business.
In plain words: Revenue is all the money customers paid. The margins show how many cents of each dollar of sales are left over at each step: after making the product (gross), after running the business (operating) and after everything, tax included (net).

Margins, % of revenue
KIRA · Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd made $54.5B of net profit in fiscal 2025. From fiscal 2016 to 2025, diluted EPS grew 20.3% a year.
Loss periods are shown in red.
In plain words: Net income is the profit left after every cost and tax. Earnings per share (EPS) splits that profit across every share, so it shows what one share earned.

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA · Free cash flow was $32.2B in fiscal 2025, 26.3% of revenue.
Cash from operations minus capital spending.
In plain words: Profit on paper is not the same as cash in the bank. Free cash flow is the cash left after paying to run and maintain the business: the money it can hand back to shareholders, save or invest.

Cash from operations vs capital spending
KIRA · Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd returned $15.0B to shareholders in fiscal 2025, 47% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 0.0%.
In plain words: Companies hand cash back in two ways: dividends (cash paid to shareholders) and buybacks (buying back their own shares, so each remaining share owns a bigger slice).

Diluted shares outstanding (annual)
KIRA · In the last 12 months, insiders bought $2.2M and sold $14.0M of shares on the open market.
Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from Form 4 filings. “Plan” marks trades under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plan.
In plain words: Insiders are the people who run or own a big part of the company. Buying with their own money can signal confidence; selling often has personal reasons, like taxes or diversifying.
