The burgeoning popularity of mobile handheld devices has brought substantial changes to the PC-DRAM industry, in terms of both supply and demand. From the demand perspective, consumer PC demand has decreased due to the rise of tablet PCs, resulting in further weakening of an already sluggish PC market; a definite challenge for the PC-DRAM industry...

The global DRAM industry’s total revenue for 3Q was approximately US$6.566 billion. Due to weak economies worldwide and a severe oversupply situation, DDR3 4GB average contract price fell from US$31 to US$19.5, a decrease of nearly 37%. DRAM makers’ total revenue decreased significantly, by 19.4% QoQ. Besides Samsung Semiconductors, all other DRAM manufacturers reported losses for 3Q. Additionally, DRAM makers actively transitioned to the 30nm-node process and the production of DDR3 4Gb chips. The sufficiency ratio for 1H12 will still be over 15%, which will stimulate capacity cuts or even mergers in the DRAM industry...

According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, total revenue for the global DRAM industry in 2Q11 was approximately US$8.1 billion. Although DRAM ASP (average selling price) increased slightly due to expectations of supply disruption from the Japan earthquake, ProMOS’s decrease in wafer start volume and Powerchip’s increase of non-DRAM products caused overall revenue to decrease slightly, 1.9% from 1Q11...
According to DRAMeXchange, a research department of Trendforce, despite 30% contract price drop, 1Q11 worldwide DRAM revenue merely declined 4% to US$8.3bn from US$8.6bn due to the 15% output increase...
