- Revenue Trends
- Revenue exhibited fluctuations over the six-year period. It decreased from 23,406 million USD in 2019 to 21,435 million USD in 2020, followed by a significant increase reaching 30,758 million USD by 2022. However, 2023 experienced a sharp decline to 15,540 million USD, and revenue rebounded to 25,111 million USD in 2024. This suggests volatility potentially influenced by external market conditions.
- Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
- COGS consistently increased each year from -12,704 million USD in 2019 to -19,498 million USD in 2024, with a minor decline from 2021 to 2022. The growing COGS alongside fluctuating revenues impacted profitability.
- Gross Margin
- Gross margin mirrored revenue variations and was positive from 2019 through 2022, peaking at 13,898 million USD in 2022. Notably, 2023 saw a negative gross margin of -1,416 million USD, reflecting a period where costs exceeded revenues significantly. In 2024, the gross margin recovered to 5,613 million USD but remained below prior peaks.
- Research and Development (R&D) Expenses
- R&D expenses steadily increased over the period, growing from -2,441 million USD in 2019 to -3,430 million USD in 2024, indicating a sustained or increasing investment in innovation and product development regardless of revenue volatility.
- Selling, General, and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses
- SG&A expenses saw a gradual increase from -836 million USD in 2019 to -1,129 million USD in 2024, with some fluctuations. This trend indicates a moderate growth in overhead costs relative to prior years.
- Restructuring and Asset Impairments
- This item showed irregular values with impairments notably present in 2021 (-488 million USD) and 2023 (-171 million USD), while other years exhibited lesser or negligible charges. This reflects occasional write-downs or restructuring costs affecting profit.
- Non-Recurring Gains and Losses
- Several non-operating items were observed: a patent cross-license gain of 200 million USD in 2024, impairments such as the goodwill impairment (-101 million USD) and litigation settlement (-68 million USD) occurring in 2023, and occasional gains on disposition of assets ranging positively from 3 million USD to 59 million USD over the years.
- Operating Income (Loss)
- Operating income fluctuated significantly, peaking at 9,702 million USD in 2022 before plunging to a loss of -5,745 million USD in 2023. The year 2024 saw a partial recovery to 1,304 million USD, signaling operational challenges in 2023 with subsequent improvement.
- Interest and Investment Income/Expenses
- Interest income showed variability but increased to 529 million USD in 2024 from 205 million USD in 2019. Conversely, interest expense increased steadily from -128 million USD to -562 million USD, reflecting possible greater debt levels or cost increases. Gains and losses on investments and debt repurchases varied irregularly, contributing marginally overall.
- Income Before Taxes and Net Income
- Income before tax paralleled operating income trends, rising to 9,571 million USD in 2022 before a sharp decline to -5,658 million USD in 2023 and a slight recovery to 1,240 million USD in 2024. The income tax provision fluctuated but remained a significant charge. Net income followed a similar pattern, with strong positive results until 2022, a substantial loss in 2023 matching operational downturns, and a modest net income return in 2024.
- Net Income Attributable to Micron
- Net income attributable to the parent company closely tracked overall net income trends. Positive earnings through 2022 were replaced by a major loss in 2023 (-5,833 million USD) and a return to profitability with 778 million USD in 2024, indicating a period of financial distress followed by stabilization.
