Assuming that fab equipment has a relatively flat price in terms of production capability, it will be true over time. These are the places that purchase 85% the equipment, the equipment produces chips, so these places produce 85% of chips. Of course, some of the equipment will yield higher or lower chip outputs than others, and some of it will be shipped/resold elsewhere, but with large geographic and time scales, the output percentage will tend toward the capital spent percentage.
