SanDisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK), a global leader in flash storage solutions, today provided preliminary revenue results for its fourth fiscal quarter ended December 28, 2014. The company estimates total revenue to be approximately $1.73 billion, lower than the previously forecasted revenue range of $1.80 billion to $1.85 billion. The lower revenue was primarily due to weaker than expected sales of retail and iNAND products. Non-GAAP gross margin for the fourth fiscal quarter is expected to be approximately 45% compared to the previously guided range of 47% to 49%.

On Wednesday, January 21, 2015, SanDisk will publish its fourth quarter fiscal 2014 financial results press release via business wire after the close of market, and will hold its earnings conference call at 2 p.m., Pacific time.
