(1) Investment Decision: Kioxia plans to build a new manufacturing plant at its production base in Iwate Prefecture, Japan, with an expected investment of over 1 trillion yen (approximately $6.27 billion) to increase capacity in order to meet the growing demand for storage devices driven by the AI sector. (2) Capacity and Technology: The new factory will be the third facility at this site and will produce the latest high-density 3D flash memory chips, designed to handle the massive workflows generated by AI services. Last month, Kioxia began shipping stacked NAND chips (10th-generation BiCS flash).

(4) Announcement Timing: Kioxia plans to officially announce the expansion plan on Thursday evening.
