Micron Rides AI Memory Boom as HBM Supply Sells Out Through 2026

AI memory scarcity is propelling Micron's shift toward higher-value enterprise products.

Overview

  • Micron said its entire high-bandwidth memory supply is committed through 2026 and it expects to meet only about 60% of AI memory demand this year.
  • The company guided fiscal Q2 revenue to roughly $18.7 billion, implying about 132% growth from a year earlier.
  • Management is expanding capacity by constructing new plants and acquiring fabrication facilities to lift future output.
  • Micron is exiting consumer chips to focus on enterprise customers, supplying HBM used in AI processors from Nvidia and AMD.
  • Shares jumped 239.1% in 2025 and have risen about 27% so far in 2026, reflecting sustained investor optimism.
