Micron Forecasts Quarterly Revenue Above Estimates
The chipmaker said AI memory orders are outpacing capacity as it plans $250 billion in new manufacturing campuses.
- On Wednesday, Micron Technology reported better-than-expected quarterly results, forecasting first-quarter revenue of about $61.5 billion. CEO Sanjay Mehrotra signaled the AI-driven memory chip boom continues powering growth.
- Soaring demand for AI infrastructure from Nvidia and AMD has driven Micron's stock up more than 500% in the past year. Micron remains the only US-based HBM maker amid a worldwide supply crunch.
- Fourth-Quarter revenue quadrupled to $54.23 billion, as net income climbed to $37.7 billion. Although Micron holds the smallest HBM market share compared to Hynix and Samsung, market cap topped $1.2 trillion.
- To meet surging demand, Micron is investing $250 billion to build two HBM campuses. The company broke ground in Clay, New York, in January, with its first Boise, Idaho fab scheduled to come online next year.
- Mehrotra participated in an AI regulation summit with President Donald Trump on Tuesday, days after attending a White House dinner with Chinese President Jinping. These engagements underscore semiconductors' strategic importance.
