Core Viewpoint - The recent addition of 23 Chinese entities, including several closely related to Fudan Microelectronics, to the U.S. Entity List by the U.S. Department of Commerce is expected to have significant impacts on the semiconductor industry, particularly in terms of EDA tool restrictions and wafer fabrication challenges [2][3]. Group 1: Impact of Entity List Inclusion - The inclusion of Fudan Microelectronics in the Entity List will primarily hinder its research and development due to restricted access to EDA tools [3]. - Wafer fabrication processes will also be affected, as the restrictions apply to all foreign-produced items containing U.S. technology, regardless of the manufacturing process node [3][4]. - The specific designation of Footnote 4 (FN4) for Fudan Microelectronics indicates a comprehensive ban on all nodes utilizing U.S. technology, including mature processes [4][8]. Group 2: Comparison with Other Companies - Unlike Fudan Microelectronics, companies like Cambricon have managed to thrive despite being on the Entity List, indicating that the impact of such sanctions may be diminishing over time [3]. - The distinction between Fudan Microelectronics and Cambricon lies in the FN4 designation, which imposes stricter limitations on Fudan's operations compared to Cambricon's ability to utilize certain non-U.S. production lines [4][5]. - As of September 2025, nine Chinese IC design companies have been marked with FN4, highlighting the growing list of entities facing stringent restrictions [4][6]. Group 3: Strategic Responses - Fudan Microelectronics may adopt strategies similar to those of Higon, which has successfully navigated FN4 restrictions by relocating its entire design-manufacturing-testing chain to domestically controlled processes [8]. - The company can leverage policy support, stockpiling, and process downgrading as part of its strategy to mitigate the impact of the Entity List [8]. - The short-term outlook may appear negative, but effective management and execution could lead to long-term benefits and operational freedom post-supply chain challenges [8].
