Item 7.01.      Regulation FD Disclosure
 
Micron Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) plans to add approximately 255,000 square feet of clean room space to its fabrication facility in Singapore.  This expansion would facilitate efficient implementation of 3D NAND production at the Singapore facility and give the Company the flexibility to gradually add incremental capacity in response to market requirements.  In addition, the space would enable production of storage class and other memory technologies.  Construction of the additional space is expected to begin in fiscal 2015 with initial manufacturing output likely in fiscal 2017.  The Company currently anticipates spending approximately $50 million in fiscal 2015 for initial design and construction. At completion and subject to market conditions, the Company currently expects the total cost for this expansion to be approximately $4 billion incurred over a number of years starting in fiscal 2016.  The Company’s capital spending guidance for fiscal 2015 remains unchanged at $3.6 billion to $4 billion.
 
The Company’s CEO, Mark Durcan, will update the Company’s technology and manufacturing strategy, including the clean room expansion, on Wednesday, December 3, 2014, at the 18th Annual Credit Suisse Technology Conference. Mr. Durcan’s presentation will begin at noon MT and can be accessed live via webcast from the Company’s Investor Relations website at http://www.micron.com/investors/conference.  The press release related to Mr. Durcan’s participation in this conference is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
