Samsung Electronics announced today that it will temporarily adjust the operation of its plant in Xi'an, China.

Arrangement and release on December 30, 2021: Samsung Electronics announced today that it will temporarily adjust the operation of its Xi'an plant in China to protect the safety of employees as much as possible.

Samsung Electronics is now sending a letter to customers informing customers that it is expected that the manufacturing capacity of NAND products may be affected by Xi'an and temporarily suspend quotations, while the market atmosphere of rising NAND prices continues to brew, the Financial Associated Press said.

TrendForce said in a report on Friday that due to the influence of Xi'an, it is not possible to predict the unsealing time, and the operation of Samsung's local NAND Flash production plant is not accurate; it does not rule out the possibility that NAND Flash prices may rise slightly in a short period of time due to expectations.

It is reported that Samsung has two large factories in Xi'an, which can produce 3D NAND high-level data products, accounting for 42.3% of the company's NAND Flash production capacity and 15.3% of the world, but the actual production capacity of the city affects the normal operation of the plant.
