Transcend Information has announced its revenues for February 2010 slid 20.1% sequentially to NT$2.34 billion (US$73 million), mainly due to fewer working days in the month. The memory module house also saw February shipments drop to about 4.77 million units from 5.7 million shipped in January.
Transcend saw sales from NAND flash-based devices and DRAM modules account for 44.3% and 32.1%, respectively, of its February revenues, according to the company. Other products such as digital music players and digital photo frames, which Transcend places under its strategic product segment, made up the remainder.
Transcend said it shipped a total of 3.56 million NAND flash products in February, down 16% from the prior month's 4.25 million units. Shipments of its DRAM modules amounted to 823,000 units in the month, compared to 975,000 shipped in January.
Transcend's strategic products contributed 23.6% to its February 2010 revenues, compared to 19.7% a year earlier. The proportion approximates to the January level of 23.5%.
Transcend said March revenues will be boosted by more working days, and the outlook for both DRAM and NAND flash memory markets looks bullish. Transcend's shipments of its flash memory cards are expected to be spurred by the launch of new digital camera models, and DRAM-module orders are being boosted by the migration from DDR2 to DDR3.
