Memory module maker Adata Technology has announced that revenues for November 2012 decreased 3.6% sequentially and 20.2% from a year ago to NT$2.19 billion (US$75.3 million).
Sales of DRAM modules accounted for 45.6% of Adata's overall revenues in November, compared to 28.52% in October, while the sales ratio for NAND flash and other non-DRAM module devices slipped to 54.4% from 71.48%, the company said.
Adata indicated that DRAM prices at both the spot and contract markets stopped falling recently. Despite the price stabilization, overall end-market demand for DRAM has not seen a seasonal pickup, Adata said.
However, gains in inventory value resulting from more stable chip pricing are expected to make a positive contribution to Adata's profitability in the fourth quarter of 2012, the firm noted.
Adata's cumulative 2012 revenues through November totaled NT$25.46 billion, down 6.2% on year. The firm's sales ratio between DRAM modules and other products was 40:60 during the 11-month period.
