[Compile Wei Guojin/Taipei Report] Bloomberg reported that China on Friday (March 31) launched a cybersecurity review of products imported from Micron, the largest memory manufacturer in the United States, adding to the growing tension between the United States and China. While Micron's 11% of revenue from China may be hit, other U.S. semiconductor manufacturers are at greater risk.

Micron’s China revenue pales in comparison to Qualcomm, which generates 64 percent of its sales in China, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

In fact, Micron’s revenue from China is also much lower than Broadcom’s 35%, Intel’s 27%, AMD’s 22% and Nvidia’s 21%.

Micron is a key supplier to a range of technology companies, and given that many of the world's electronic products and component systems come from factories in China, any expansion of the Chinese government's actions against other U.S. companies would threaten Micron's peers.

"Although China only accounts for 10.8% of Micron's direct sales, they sell to many other companies, and if China really wants to crack down, it could affect the broader portfolio," said Paula Penkal, senior semiconductor analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence.
