Total Revenue: Total revenue for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 was impacted by the factors described in the section titled “Industry Conditions” above.

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2026 increased 75% as compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to increases in sales of both DRAM and NAND products.

Sales of DRAM products increased 74%, primarily due to a mid-60% range increase in average selling prices and a mid-single-digit percentage range increase in bit shipments driven by tight industry conditions and favorable mix.

Sales of NAND products increased 82%, primarily due to a high-70% range increase in average selling prices and a low-single-digit percentage range increase in bit shipments driven by tight industry conditions and favorable mix.

Total revenue for the second quarter of 2026 increased 196% as compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to increases in sales of both DRAM and NAND products.

Sales of DRAM products increased 207%, primarily due to a mid-110% range increase in average selling prices and a mid-40% range increase in bit shipments.

Sales of NAND products increased 169%, primarily due to a slightly more than 100% increase in average selling prices and an approximate 30% increase in bit shipments.

29 | 2026 Q2 10-Q

Total revenue for the first six months of 2026 increased 124% as compared to the first six months of 2025, primarily due to increases in sales of both DRAM and NAND products.

Sales of DRAM products increased 136%, primarily due to a mid-70% range increase in average selling prices and a mid-30% range increase in bit shipments.

Sales of NAND products increased 89%, primarily due to a mid-40% range increase in average selling prices and an approximate 30% increase in bit shipments.

Consolidated Gross Margin: Our consolidated gross margin has been impacted by the factors described in the section titled “Industry Conditions.” Our consolidated gross margin percentage increased to 74% for the second quarter of 2026 from 56% for the first quarter of 2026 as a result of improvements in margins for both DRAM and NAND products. Margins improved primarily due to increases in average selling prices, favorable mix, and manufacturing cost reductions driven by improvements in product and process technology.

Our consolidated gross margin percentage improved to 74% for the second quarter of 2026 from 37% for the second quarter of 2025 and improved to 68% for the first six months of 2026 from 38% for the first six months of 2025. Improvements in our consolidated gross margins for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 as compared to corresponding periods of 2025 were primarily due to improvements in margins for both DRAM and NAND products. Margins improved, primarily due to increases in average selling prices, favorable mix, and manufacturing cost reductions.

AEBU operating income was higher, primarily due to increases in average selling prices, partially offset by lower bit shipments.

Our operating income increased for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 as compared to the corresponding periods of 2025 for all of our business units primarily due to increases in average selling prices, higher bit shipments, and manufacturing cost reductions.

Operating Expenses and Other

Research and Development: R&D expenses vary primarily with the number of development and pre-qualification wafers processed and end-product solutions developed, personnel costs, and the cost of advanced equipment dedicated to new product and process development. Because of the lead times necessary to manufacture our products, we typically begin to process wafers before completion of performance and reliability testing. Development of a product is deemed complete when it is qualified through internal reviews and tests for performance, functionality, and reliability. R&D expenses can vary significantly depending on the timing of product qualification and product specifications.

R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2026 increased 7% as compared to the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to an increase in employee compensation. R&D expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 increased 39% and 36%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods of 2025, primarily due to higher volumes of development and pre-qualification wafers, as we ramp R&D investments in support of long-term opportunities in memory and storage, and increases in employee compensation.

Selling, General, and Administrative: SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2026 were relatively unchanged as compared to the first quarter of 2026. SG&A expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 increased 21% and 19%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods of 2025, primarily due to increases in employee compensation.

Interest Income (Expense), Net: Interest income (expense) improved in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2026 and for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 as compared to the corresponding periods of 2025, primarily due to a decrease in interest expense due to lower debt balances and an increase in interest income due to higher cash and investments balances.

31 | 2026 Q2 10-Q

Income Taxes: Our income tax (provision) benefit consisted of the following:

Second Quarter · First Quarter · Second Quarter · Six Months Ended
20262026202520262025
Income before taxes$16,160$6,061$1,758$22,221$3,910
Income tax (provision) benefit(2,371)(829)(177)(3,200)(460)
Effective tax rate14.7%13.7%10.1%14.4%11.8%

The change in our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2026, as compared to the first quarter of 2026 was primarily due to changes in profitability, which reduced the relative impact of discrete tax benefits. The change in our effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2026, as compared to the corresponding periods of 2025, was primarily due to the 15% minimum tax Pillar Two Model Rules (“Pillar Two”). Singapore enacted legislation to implement Pillar Two, effective for us in 2026, which largely offsets the benefit from our Singapore tax incentive arrangements.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted, introducing broad changes to the U.S. tax code, including modifications to corporate and international tax provisions, which primarily are effective for us beginning in 2026 and 2027. The aggregate impact of the OBBBA remains uncertain. We will continue to monitor future developments, including regulatory guidance and interpretations, which could have a material impact on our income tax provision. Further changes in the tax laws of foreign jurisdictions could arise as a result of the base erosion and profit-shifting project, including Pillar Two, undertaken by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. We continue to monitor for additional guidance and legislative changes related to Pillar Two in the jurisdictions where we operate.

Various tax reforms are being considered in multiple jurisdictions that, if enacted, contain provisions that could materially impact our tax expense. We continue to monitor the potential impact of these various tax reform proposals to our overall global effective tax rate and financial statements.
