BOISE, Idaho, Feb. 02, 2017 -- Micron Technology, Inc., (NASDAQ:MU) today announced the upcoming retirement of its Chief Executive Officer, Mark Durcan.

Mark Durcan will continue to lead Micron as CEO during this process and will assist the company with its search and subsequent leadership transition.

We expect Mark to play an instrumental role in securing and transitioning his replacement.”
