Shares of Micron Technology Inc. (MU) plummeted 6% today before rebounding.
The semiconductor device manufacturer declared Tuesday a wider first-quarter loss in the face of the falling average prices for memory-chip products. DRAM and NAND Flash prices fell 34% and 24%, respectively, during the quarter.
The Boise-based company suffered an adjusted loss for the quarter of 72 cents a share, far worse than the 43-cent loss brokerage analysts had projected. (It was the third time MU has missed expectations in 4 quarters.) Revenue dropped to $1.4 billion from $1.54 billion, a year ago.
MU is a Zacks #3 Rank ("Hold") company.
