Nanya Technology has raised $2.5 billion through equity sales and private placements to expand advanced DRAM chip production, securing strategic investments from multiple industry giants.
Kioxia invested $490 million for a roughly 2% stake—its first external investment in a memory chipmaker. The two companies also signed a long-term supply agreement, with Nanya set to supply DRAM chips to Kioxia.
SanDisk followed with an investment of $310 million, while Solidigm (a SK Hynix subsidiary) and Cisco Systems jointly contributed $1.6 billion to the round.
Kioxia, a leading NAND flash maker and global SSD supplier, faces persistent DRAM shortages and high procurement costs. The partnership secures its critical component supply chain.
Nanya ranked fifth in the global DRAM market with a 2% share in the third quarter of 2025. With the market dominated by Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron (over 90% combined), the new funding and long-term orders position Nanya to boost capacity and competitiveness.
Following the announcement, Nanya’s stock hit the daily limit, rising 10%.
