Artificial quality (AI) information centers necessitate much than conscionable almighty processors. They besides beryllium connected tremendous amounts of high-performance representation and different information retention hardware to clasp and rapidly present the monolithic datasets demanded by analyzable AI workloads.
In fact, the high-bandwidth representation (HBM) marketplace is projected to turn from astir $35 cardinal successful 2025 to astir $100 cardinal by 2028. HBM is simply a specialized benignant of DRAM memory; erstwhile it's placed adjacent to GPUs successful AI accelerators, it tin transportation information to those processor chips astatine the highly accelerated speeds required erstwhile grooming and moving AI models.
Will AI make the world's archetypal trillionaire? Our squad conscionable released a study connected the 1 little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the captious exertion Nvidia and Intel some need. Continue »
Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) is good positioned to payment from this opportunity. As 1 of the world's largest suppliers of DRAM and NAND representation chips, it's seeing rising request arsenic AI models turn much complex.
Memory request is acold outpacing disposable supply. In fact, during Micron's latest net call, CEO Sanjay Mehrotra claimed that respective cardinal customers could lone get capable to conscionable fractional to two-thirds of their needs.
A cardinal operator of this request is HBM. Micron has already begun high-volume accumulation of its next-generation HBM4 memory, which delivers a velocity of 11 gigabits per second.
Shipment volumes of HBM4 are ramping up successful the existent quarter, 1 4th earlier than antecedently predicted. All the HBM that it volition beryllium capable to nutrient successful calendar 2026 has already been sold successful advance.
In the look of a widening supply-demand mismatch, customers are progressively seeking multiyear proviso agreements with measurement commitments. These factors springiness Micron awesome semipermanent gross visibility.
Additionally, since HBM requires much wafer capableness than accepted DRAM, rising request is affecting DRAM proviso crossed the industry. The resulting constraints are supporting terms hikes adjacent for Micron's different representation offerings.
Beyond information centers, request for representation is besides expanding successful PCs, smartphones, robotics, and autonomous systems.
Analysts expect Micron's revenues to beryllium astir $78.4 cardinal successful its fiscal 2026 (which ends successful August) and $104.5 cardinal successful fiscal 2027. They besides expect the company's adjusted net per stock (EPS) to beryllium $35.14 successful fiscal 2026 and $47.19 successful fiscal 2027.
