Management statement on the global memory crisis
================================================

The current restructuring in the memory industry, in particular, the withdrawal of major manufacturers from DDR3/DDR4 and the strong shift to DDR5, LPDDR5X, and HBM for AI applications, is causing a noticeable **memory shortage with sharply rising prices and ongoing delivery delays.** This “memory crisis” affects not only consumer RAM, but also server and industrial components – memory has become a bottleneck in the AI and PC environment.

We, too, have long since moved beyond the generally lamented chip crisis to see a concrete **memory supply risk** that threatens our delivery speed and price stability – currently extending into 2026.

### **Our approach:**

- A forward-looking procurement plan in which we reserve existing DRAM and NAND capacities at an early stage to close supply gaps.
- Strategic risk hedging: We ask our customers to share the burden so that demand and capacity are aligned and we can guarantee delivery.

### **Here is how you, as our customers, can contribute to the solution:**

   **Actions taken** **Effect**   Early project and requirements planning Plannning security   Advance scheduling & framework agreements

  Reliable call-off quantities   Advance ordering or early orders Better allocation in a tight supply chain   Faster payments / prepayment Liquidity for early procurement  Placing your order early ensures better availability, allowing you to benefit from more stable prices and more reliable delivery dates.
Through open communication, a cooperative approach, and mutual trust, we are creating a stable supply, despite the tense market situation. **Together, we can overcome the current memory crisis.**
