The Hefei-based Chinese memory chipmaker had posted a loss in the same period a year earlier, making the latest prospectus an important financial reset ahead of what could be a high-profile listing later this year. Much like Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix and Micron Technology, CXMT is benefiting from a memory upcycle fueled by AI data center demand. Those projects are consuming large volumes of advanced memory, while the pressure is spilling into the broader DRAM market. TrendForce said shortages in conventional DRAM roughly doubled prices in the first quarter and could drive another 60% cost increase in the quarter to June. That pricing backdrop could help explain CXMT's bullish first-half guidance, which points to a net income increase of more than 2,200%. For investors, the bigger story is China's push to reduce reliance on US technology. CXMT counts Alibaba Group Holding , Tencent Holdings (TCEHY) and ByteDance among its customers, and it is looking to raise 29.5 billion yuan in what could be China's biggest IPO this year. The company has also spent more than 9 billion yuan on research and development in 2025, representing nearly 16% of revenue that year. If the memory cycle keeps supporting pricing, CXMT's IPO could become one of the more closely watched tests of investor appetite for China's domestic semiconductor champions. ### Related Stocks - [SOXL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) - [SOXX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXX.US.md) - [512480.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/512480.CN.md) - [588780.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/588780.CN.md) - [159325.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159325.CN.md) - [SMH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMH.US.md) - [SSNGY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SSNGY.US.md) - [MU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MU.US.md) - [BABA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BABA.US.md) - [09988.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09988.HK.md) - [TCEHY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TCEHY.US.md) - [00700.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00700.HK.md) - [SMSN.UK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMSN.UK.md) - [89988.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/89988.HK.md) - [HBBD.SG](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HBBD.SG.md) - [80700.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/80700.HK.md) - [HTCD.SG](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HTCD.SG.md) - [TCTZF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TCTZF.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [China's CXMT expects revenue to surge as memory chip demand soars](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286706506.md) - [This memory chip ETF is off the charts.
