Advantech says Q1 revenue to increaseBy Meryl Kao / Staff reporterIndustrial computer maker Advantech Co (研華) yesterday said revenue this quarter is expected to increase, driven by front-loaded orders from customers amid a shortage of memory chips, as it expressed optimism about full-year performance on the back of strong design wins. North America accounted for 31 percent of the company’s revenue last quarter, followed by China at 21 percent and Europe at 16 percent, he said. The company raised prices by 4 to 8 percent for some products last quarter, Advantech president of embedded president of embedded Internet of Things Miller Chang (張家豪) said. After memory prices surged, the company began reviewing memory module prices every two weeks and system product prices monthly, he said, adding that memory supply remains stable in the short term. Revenue from the company’s edge artificial intelligence business accounted for 20 percent of total revenue and could rise to 30 percent this year, Chen added.
