Memory module firms Adata Technology and Transcend Information have reported decreases in July consolidated revenues from the previous month of 13% and 14%, respectively.
  Consolidated sales at Adata came to NT$2.88 billion (US$96 million) in July 2013, down 13% on month but up 13.6% on year. The sequential drop was caused by falling sales generated from its DRAM module business due to falling chip prices.
  DRAM modules accounted for about 57.6% of Adata's July consolidated revenues, compared to 68.6% in the prior month, the company disclosed. The proportion for the second quarter was 62.7%.
  Adata also produces NAND flash based products, such as memory cards and flash drives, and embedded storage devices. Sales generated from the product segment increased 17.5% on month to NT$1.22 billion in July 2013, which accounted for 42.4% of Adata's overall revenues.
  Adata's cumulative sales through July totaled NT$19.63 billion, rising 19.5% from a year earlier.
  Fellow company Transcend announced July consolidated revenues of NT$2.02 billion, down 13.9% sequentially and 17.7% from the same period of 2012. Consolidated sales for the first seven months of 2013 were NT$15 billion, up 2.2% from a year ago.
  Transcend's sales generated from flash-based products accounted for 55.1% of July revenues, followed by its industrial and strategic product segment with 34.8%. DRAM modules made up the remaining 10.2% in the month.
