About Inotera
Incorporated on January 23rd, 2003, Inotera Memories, Inc. is a joint venture between Nanya Technology Corporation and Micron Technology, Inc..
Inotera currently has two 300mm fabrication facilities with a combined capacity of approximately 120 thousand wafer starts per month. Inotera provides commodity DRAM memory foundry services on 300mm silicon wafers. After an 8-month transition period following Micron’s acquisition of a 35.6% stake in Inotera from Qimonda AG on November 26th, 2008, half of Inotera’s manufacturing capacity will be dedicated to each of Nanya Technology and Micron, respectively. Inotera is designed to focus on operational excellence in mass production to manufacture DRAM memory products with high quality using state-of-the-art technology and to leverage its economies of scale in order to maximize its cost efficiency.
The Company has reached full conversion to 70nm shrink technology in the end of June 2008. In addition, Inotera plans to start pilot production of Micron’s stack process technology from the third quarter of 2009 in order to further improve the productivity and to reduce manufacturing unit cost.
Inotera is confident that the Company's strengths in operational excellence, cost efficiency and adoption of advanced technologies will keep the Company in a leading position as one of the most productive semiconductor manufacturers worldwide. Together, the Board of Directors and the management team of Inotera Memories will keep striving to enhance the competitiveness of the company and to create value for the shareholders.
