2025 Q3 Update — DRAM Industry Revenue Jumps 30.9% to US$ 41.4 B

Date: November 26, 2025
Source: TrendForce : Global DRAM Revenue Jumps 30.9% in 3Q25 press release

  • The global DRAM industry recorded US$ 41.4 billion in revenue during 3Q 2025 — a 30.9% increase quarter‑over‑quarter.
  • The surge was driven by higher conventional DRAM contract prices, increased bit shipments, and expanded HBM volumes.
  • Looking into 4Q 2025, TrendForce notes that DRAM suppliers’ inventories are nearly depleted, which — combined with strong procurement activity — is expected to drive rapid increases in contract prices for both DRAM and HBM. They forecast a 45–50% QoQ increase for conventional DRAM prices and a 50–55% QoQ increase for total DRAM + HBM contract prices.

Major Vendor Revenue & Market Share in 3Q 2025:

Vendor Revenue (3Q 2025) QoQ Growth Market Share (3Q 2025)
SK hynix US$ 13.75 B +12.4% 33.2%
Samsung Electronics US$ 13.5 B +30.4% 32.6%
Micron Technology US$ 10.65 B +53.2% 25.7%
  • Smaller vendors — including several Taiwanese suppliers — also saw quarterly revenue increases, as their mature-node DRAM helped fill supply gaps left by capacity shifts among the top three.

Outlook (TrendForce):

  • With tight inventories and rising demand, contract prices for DRAM and HBM are expected to climb sharply in 4Q 2025.

  • Growth is expected across both conventional DRAM and HBM segments, though TrendForce notes that bit‑shipment growth may moderate as inventories normalize.
