NASDAQ · NAND flash & SSD · Western Digital spin-off (~12% share)
SanDisk
A NAND flash and SSD maker (~12% global share) that spun off from Western Digital in 2025 and co-produces with Kioxia in Japan. Consumer and enterprise SSDs lead the mix, and it benefits directly from the memory up-cycle as AI-datacenter mass-storage demand meets tight NAND supply. But NAND is a commodity memory with a large price-cycle amplitude, so results swing sharply with the supply/price cycle — a structural variable.

YTD as of 2026-07-10 · source: Yahoo Finance
A NAND flash and SSD maker (~12% global share) that spun off from Western Digital in February 2025. Structurally, it obtains substantially all its flash wafers from Flash Ventures, its Japan JV with Kioxia (seven Yokkaichi/Kitakami fabs, extended through 2034), sharing capacity and investment. FY2025 (ended June) revenue of $7.4B at a 30.1% gross margin marks a cyclical rebound, and Cloud (enterprise SSD) revenue surging +195% (exabytes +153%) shows AI-datacenter storage demand is the engine of the upturn. Consumer, by contrast, was pressured with ASP -7%, exposing the risk that NAND is a commodity memory with large segment-level price swings. Upstream are TEL, ASML and Lam production tools; downstream is datacenter and consumer SSD demand (e.g. Amazon). Re-rating triggers are the NAND price cycle, a rising datacenter-SSD mix, and the ramp of advanced 3D NAND at the Kioxia JV.
