Until 4Q23, the NB market has experienced more than one year of destocking, and it is obvious that the inventory issue is gradually no longer the main factor of market disturbance. The NB industry returning to not only normal seasonal purchasing but also normal inventory level will help brand NB clients actively prepare goods for requests in 2024.

In the NB market in 2024, general market research institutions view the market positively as a growth trend. At the same time, integrating AI-functional hardware chips and software into NB will change the long-standing traditional ecology of the NB market to improve the individuals' or enterprises' productivity demands which are the focuses of the NB industry chain in 2024.

ELAN will continue to focus on "content value increase", through existing AI technology to integrate AI functions, algorithms and data to provide better total solutions, which will raise our chips or modules prices to drive up the operating efficiency.
