The Taiwanese company in March projected strong sales growth in 2026, fueled by sustained AI momentum\. It derives a significant chunk of sales from assembling[Apple Inc\.](https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/AAPL:US)’s iPhones and MacBooks and is in a position to benefit from any positive reception for the latest iPhone 17 product family\. But like many electronics manufacturers, Hon Hai faces a shortage of memory chips used in a wide range of products from smartphones to PCs and servers\. Executives have said the crunch should not significantly impact demand for premium handset and computer products the company makes for major customers\.
