| Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure |
On April 17, 2024, a subsidiary of Micron Technology, Inc. (“Micron”), Micron Virginia Semiconductor Manufacturing LLC, submitted a full application to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s CHIPS Program Office (“CPO”) in response to the CPO’s Notice of Funding Opportunity for semiconductor manufacturing under the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. This application requests federal funding in the form of grants for modernization of production of long-lifecycle DRAM products at Micron’s existing semiconductor manufacturing facility in Manassas, Virginia to address future demand primarily for defense, aerospace, automotive, and industrial customers. The grants, combined with federal investment tax credits and Virginia state incentives, are necessary to enable proceeding with the project. This application for Micron’s Virginia project is in addition to previously announced applications for federal funding to build leading-edge manufacturing facilities in Boise, Idaho, and Clay, New York. The U.S. projects for which federal funding is sought are part of Micron’s strategy to increase Micron’s overall supply in line with industry demand growth.
