Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Latest Nanya Tech results showed weak margin rebound. Gross margin rebounded but remained below zero.</li>
<li>Nanya expects DRAM pricing improvement through 2024E; due to demand for AI related memory products reducing capacity for other DRAM products rather than improvement for Nanya's main Consumer segment.</li>
<li>Micron is reportedly increasing prices post Taiwan earthquake and this is positive, but we see Nanya's 2024E consensus margin expectations set at a high bar and the stock isn't cheap.</li>
