While we had hoped for higher Q1 sales, improving manufacturing yields
allowed SanDisk to post a record-high product gross margin of 37.2%.

higher manufacturing yields not only mean higher margins - it also means more good dies/units out than expected

largely due to supply constraint
So what is the rootcause for supply constraint?

unfortunately the ML report does not seem to cover this point
