Citi has introduced Citi AI, a suite of artificial intelligence tools, for its employees in Taiwan to enhance operational efficiency and service delivery. The launch included a “Citi AI Day” featuring training sessions and workshops aimed at encouraging the adoption of these AI tools. Christie Chang, CEO of Citi Taiwan and chairman of Citibank Taiwan Ltd, emphasized the importance of embracing generative AI to stay competitive and create greater value for clients.

The Citi AI tools available to employees include Citi Stylus and Citi Stylus Workspaces for document intelligence and virtual assistance in content generation and research, Citi Assist to navigate policies and procedures across Compliance, Risk, Human Resources, and Finance, and Citi Squad to support in-house developers in coding and product development.

Citi AI services are accessible to nearly 185,000 employees across 84 jurisdictions. In September, the company launched an enhanced version of Citi Stylus Workspaces powered by Agentic AI, designed to help employees manage more complex tasks more efficiently. Early access has been granted to thousands of employees, with broader expansion plans underway.

ASUS reported consolidated revenue of NT$535.981 billion and net income after tax of NT$33.153 billion for the first three quarters of 2025, with an EPS of NT$44.63, exceeding four times its capital. In Q3 alone, brand revenue reached a record NT$189.907 billion, driven by strong demand from enterprise customers in servers and commercial PCs, resulting in net income of NT$10.556 billion and an EPS of NT$14.2. The Systems Business Group accounted for 53% of brand revenue, with significant regional contributions from Asia (46%), Europe (32%), and the Americas (22%).

For Q4, ASUS expects a quarter-on-quarter decline in computer products (10–15%) and components and servers (5–10%) due to tariff issues, global macroeconomic uncertainty, and product cycle transitions in gaming and AI PCs. However, year-on-year growth is projected to remain strong at 40–50%. The company identified gaming, consumer, and enterprise markets as key growth pillars, noting significant year-on-year shipment increases across consumer PCs (80%), high-end gaming PCs (>30% market share), and commercial PCs (>50%). The Open Platform Business Group saw 50–60% revenue growth, with server business doubling and securing major cloud service provider orders.

ASUS’s monitor business also showed robust performance, doubling shipments with OLED monitors reaching a 24% market share, surpassing competitors such as Samsung and Dell. The company maintains ample inventory to mitigate memory and component supply issues and plans pricing adjustments aligned with cost changes to preserve profitability. Tariff exemptions continue to limit adverse operational impacts, supporting a positive long-term outlook.

Additional company financial updates include Hiwin Technology’s strong quarterly profit increase despite year-on-year declines, Zhen Ding-KY’s revenue gains tempered by foreign exchange, and Wiwynn’s exceptional growth with a 20-fold increase in accumulated EPS year-on-year. MiTAC achieved record third-quarter net income and anticipates continued EPS growth driven by AI data center deployments. Sih Electric reported record revenue and expects capacity expansion to address strong market demand through 2028. LINE Pay achieved record-high revenue and gross profit, driven by increased transaction volume and cross-border expansion.

TSMC posted a Q3 consolidated revenue near NT$990 billion with net income of NT$452.3 billion and approved a NT$6 per share dividend, alongside a US$14.98 billion capital budget for capacity and R&D investments in 2026. Several other industry players highlighted varied performance reflecting global market conditions, with emphasis on cost management, product mix optimization, and long-term growth strategies.
