Unisem (MYL5005OO003) proposed a MYR 396 million second-phase expansion at its Gopeng semiconductor facility on October 9, 2026. The plan adds capacity for wafer bumping and post-bump services as the company targets advanced packaging demand. The Star reported the filing details.

MYR 396 million capacity plan

The proposed facility carries an estimated MYR 196 million construction cost and 40,000 square meters of built-up area. A further MYR 200 million would fund equipment and facility preparation through Unisem Advanced Technologies, the wholly owned subsidiary that would lease half of the building.

MarketScreener said the project would be funded through internally generated funds and bank borrowings. The company stated that the expansion was not expected to materially affect earnings for the current fiscal year, leaving utilization and completion timing as important execution variables.

Three dated steps toward expansion

On July 31, 2026, Unisem released second-quarter results for the period ended June 30, with revenue of MYR 570.1 million, according to Investing.com. On September 18, 2026, TA Securities upgraded Unisem from Hold to Buy and set a MYR 4.81 price target, as listed by MarketScreener. On October 9, 2026, the Gopeng expansion became the latest dated corporate development.

What comes next for earnings?

Investing.com lists October 26, 2026 as Unisem's next earnings date. The same page shows an average 12-month analyst target of MYR 4.728, or 14.47 percent above the MYR 4.13 Bursa Malaysia price dated October 23, 2026.

Valuation meets execution

Unisem's market capitalization was MYR 7.1 billion as of October 23, 2026, while its 52-week range was MYR 2.53 to MYR 5.38. The dated market figures place the expansion decision alongside a valuation debate: the planned spending is substantial, but the company has tied the project to higher-value wafer-bumping and advanced packaging work.
