Dahua Technology: No chip R&D and production business

Recently, Dahua Technology, a leading security company, stated that it does not currently have chip research and development and production business, but it has established an effective management system and has consistently adopted a primary-backup supplier strategy in the selection of chip suppliers to ensure the stability of its business.

Recently, the security industry has once again experienced chip shortages and price increases, which has attracted widespread attention in the industry. As one of the global security leaders, Dahua Technology is naturally not immune and has become one of the key subjects of questioning in this round of price increases: whether there is a stable chip production system, the impact of the chip shortage, and the measures to solve the chip shortage have become hot topics nowadays.

Dahua Technology recently held an interactive Q&A session on the concerns of the industry and investors. In response, the company said that it is positioned as a smart IoT solution provider and operation service provider with video as its core. According to its own strategic positioning and future development plans, it will concentrate its superior resources on its core business and focus on investing in artificial intelligence, cloud computing and big data, software platforms and other fields. It currently has no chip research and development and production business.

Dahua Technology also stated that it has established an effective security and compliance operation control system and business continuity management system, and has consistently adopted a primary-backup supplier strategy in the selection of chip suppliers to ensure business stability; it will continue to pay attention to price fluctuations in the supply chain and take corresponding response strategies.
