  4. Slide 4: Overview

    Overview • Micron achieved record revenue in fiscal Q1, with revenue, gross margins and earnings per share (EPS) all at or above the midpoint of our guidance range. • Data center revenue grew over 400% year over year and 40% sequentially, reaching a record level, with data center revenue mix surpass

  5. Slide 5: Overview

    Overview • Leading-edge DRAM supply remains tight, driven by robust demand in data center DRAM, including HBM, which will underpin our business results throughout fiscal and calendar 2025. • We had previously shared our expectation that customer inventory reductions in the consumer-oriented segments

  6. Slide 6: Technology and operations

    Technology and operations • We are in production with the industry’s most advanced DRAM and NAND nodes. • We continue to ramp our 1β (1-beta) technology node, which supports HBM3E, and we are preparing to ramp our 1γ (1-gamma) technology node using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) in calendar 2025. • In NA

  7. Slide 7: Manufacturing update

    Manufacturing update • Earlier this month, we finalized an agreement with the U.S. Department of Commerce for an award of up to $6.1 billion under the CHIPS and Science Act to support advanced DRAM manufacturing fabs in Idaho and New York. • Additionally, we have entered into a preliminary memorandu

  8. Slide 8: Impact of AI on end markets

    Impact of AI on end markets • Multimodal models, post-training and chain-of-thought • Micron is extraordinarily well positioned to leverage this inferencing represent new frontiers of innovation, all of long-term growth opportunity, which has the potential to which are memory intensive and can benef

  9. Slide 9: Data center

    Data center • We have upgraded our view of server unit percentage growth and now expect it to reach low teens in calendar 2024, fueled by strong AI demand as well as a robust traditional server refresh cycle. We also anticipate server unit growth to continue in 2025. • Micron achieved new records in

  10. Slide 10: Data center (continued)

    Data center (continued) • This month, we commenced high-volume shipments to our second large HBM customer and will start high-volume shipments to our third large customer in CQ1, expanding our HBM customer base. • We continue to receive positive feedback from our leading customers for Micron’s HBM3E

  11. Slide 11: Data center (continued)

    Data center (continued) • Micron’s LP5X provides >500GB of capacity and memory bandwidth of >540 GB/s, thus delivering attractive performance per watt for AI platforms. • NVIDIA’s Grace CPU uses Micron’s LP5X to provide systems with additional cache coherent memory to supplement HBM for the ever-gro

  12. Slide 12: PC

    PC • The PC refresh cycle is unfolding more gradually, and we expect PC unit volume growth to be flattish in calendar 2024, slightly below prior expectations. • AI PCs will require additional DRAM content, with a minimum of 16GB of DRAM for entry level PCs and 24GB and above for higher-end segments,

  13. Slide 13: Mobile

    Mobile • Smartphone unit volumes in calendar 2024 remain on track to grow in the mid-single-digit percentage range, and we expect low-single-digit percentage growth in 2025. • AI adoption continues to be a strong driver for mobile DRAM content growth, where we see the technology used in applications

  14. Slide 14: Automotive

    Automotive • Lower than expected automotive unit production, combined with a shift toward value-trim vehicles from premium models and electric vehicles (EVs), has slowed memory and storage content growth and resulted in inventory adjustments at OEMs. • Longer term, we remain optimistic that advanced

  15. Slide 15: Demand outlook

    Demand outlook • We expect industry DRAM bit demand growth to be in the high-teens percentage range in calendar 2024 and in the mid-teens percentage range in calendar 2025. • We see overall calendar 2025 DRAM industry bit supply growing roughly in line with bit demand, with tightness in leading-edge

  16. Slide 16: Supply outlook

    Supply outlook • The decline in 2024 and 2025 industry NAND demand growth outlook implies that supply actions will be necessary to achieve balance. • Since NAND technology transitions provide a significant increase in overall bit output, the pace of technology transitions will also need to slow in o
