OCZ Technology Group (FRA:OADA) Business Description
OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation was formed in 2002. The Company is a provider of high performance solid state drives (SSDs) and memory modules for computing devices and systems. It develops flexible and customizable component solutions quickly and efficiently to meet the ever changing market needs and provide superior customer service. Historically, it mainly sold high performance memory modules to individual computing enthusiasts through catalog and online retail channels. However, SSDs have emerged as a strong market alternative to conventional disk drive technology and SSDs are rooted in much of the same basic technological concepts as its legacy memory module business. Today, as part of a diversification strategy which began in fiscal year 2009, its product mix is significantly more weighted toward the sale of SSDs and the SSD product line has become central to its business. As a result, its target customers are increasingly enterprises and original equipment manufacturers (or OEMs). It designs, develops, manufactures and distributes high performance components for computing devices and systems, including SSDs, other flash memory storage, memory modules, thermal management solutions and PSUs. Its ten largest customers are Amazon.com; ASK Corporation; BAS Group; D&H Distribution Company; Maxcom Memory GmbH; Memoryworld GmbH & Co., KG; Micro Center Corporation; Micro Peripherals LTD; NewEgg.com, operated by Magnell Associate Inc.; and SYX Distribution, Inc. The Company's business is subject to regulation by various federal and state governmental agencies.
