Chang Tzonz-Sheng, a Senior Vice President at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSM), acquired 67 common shares on 2026-04-09 in an open market/private purchase under the issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The shares were bought at a translated price of $57.87 per share (NT$1,837.2789 at NT$31.748/USD), for a total of approximately $3,877.

Key Details

  • Transaction date: 2026-04-09; Filing date (accession): 2026-04-13 (filed within the two-business-day window, timely).
  • Price: $57.87 per share (translation from NT$1,837.2789 at NT$31.748 = US$1).
  • Shares acquired: 67; Total value: ~$3,877.
  • Shares owned after transaction: not specified in the provided filing details.
  • Notable footnotes: F1/F3 — shares were purchased by the ESPP administrator on behalf of the filer and are held under the issuer’s ESPP; F2 — price shown is a USD conversion from New Taiwan dollars; F4 — filing also notes shares acquired by a trust under the issuer’s LTI Bonus Plan over which the filer has investment control (separate holding noted in filing).

Context
This was an ESPP purchase, which is a routine way employees accumulate company stock under predetermined plan terms. Purchases are generally more informative to investors than routine sales, but they do not by themselves indicate broader insider expectations. The filing appears timely (filed on 2026-04-13 for a 2026-04-09 transaction).
