- Independent Market Research Firm Bases DRAM Rankings on Revenues –

[24 July 2007] Kingston Technology, the independent world leader in memory products was recently ranked No. 1 by iSuppli in the world dynamic random access memory (DRAM) module supplier market, based on revenues. According to the independent research company, Kingston Technology’s total DRAM module sales exceeded $2.2 billion (U.S. dollars) in 2006, nearly $800 million more than in 2005. The 2006 total represented a market share rise to 18.1%, over three times more than its closest competitor, as indicated in an iSuppli statement released on June 29, 2007.

David Sun, co-founder of Kingston Technology comments, “To be No. 1 on iSuppli’s list is both exciting and humbling, especially as Kingston turns 20-years old later this year.” He continues, “Our growth could only have been accomplished through the loyalty and support of our people, our customers and our vendors.”

Founded in 1987 with a single product offering, Kingston Technology now offers more than 2,000 memory products. In addition to Flash memory for the latest digital devices, Kingston’s DRAM module offerings include branded or system-specific memory, ValueRAM memory built to JEDEC specs and designed for system integrators and white box builders, as well as HyperX for gamers and PC enthusiasts, who demand higher performance and speed.

The iSuppli report encompassed DRAM module revenues only and did not include OEM contract manufacturing or Flash memory sales. In February, Kingston Technology announced its 2006 revenues were the highest in the company’s history, with global sales reaching $3.7 billion.
