Touch chipmaker Elan held an investor briefing on March 3, 2026, sharing a positive outlook despite challenges in the PC sector. The company noted that customers are accelerating orders ahead of expected cost increases, making the first quarter of 2026 a seasonally strong quarter rather than a typical slowdown. While overall PC shipments may be pressured by memory supply constraints throughout 2026, Elan expects demand to concentrate on high-end products, boosting shipments of its advanced-spec offerings.
