The leading memory manufacturers Kioxia, Micron, Samsung, SK Hynix, and Western Digital have lost over $10 billion in flash memory alone as the companies had to cut down prices of already produced ICs. Gartner predicted that DRAM revenue this year will drop by 39.4% and NAND by 32.9%. Against this background, Phison Chief has warned of bankruptcies in the NAND industry if prices continue to decline.
Gartner also predicted that memory revenue will increase 70% in 2024 (DRAM will even surge to 86.6%), as the market will move to undersupply again and prices will rebound. The question is if manufacturers can live through this difficult year – and which products they discontinue along the way.
It is a critical time for the memory industry as well as for all industrial manufacturers.
