Dear Customer.
During the past three years, our polymer tantalum capacitor product lines (KOCAP) have experienced surging demand in several key market sectors. Simultaneously, we have also experienced rising costs in the areas of labor, materials, and equipment. As costs continue to rise, maintaining profitability with some legacy part numbers, specifically B case size values,has become increasingly challenging.
We remain committed to investing in further capacity growth to support growing demand while maintaining the high levels of quality, technology, and delivery performance for our customers. Given this background, we are implementing price adjustments on a limited group of 2.5V to 10V B Case part numbers with capacitance values of 47uF to 330uF which are necessary to preserve and grow our high levels of service to you, our valued customer.
Price adjustments will go into effect on June 1st.
