Currently the company’s order to shipment ratio (B/B value) was already 0.99 in April and rose to 1.33 in June. Dr. Chih-Yuan Lu emphasized that with the continual stability of Macronix’s market share, he is confident that they will take the top spot in global market share at the end of the year.

In addition to NOR Flash, Macronix also anticipates experiencing similar growth in ROM and NAND Flash in the third quarter of this year.
