ASRock Revenue Soars Due to the Ryzen Effect
ASRock, a Taiwanese manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards, had an amazing 2019 when it comes to the revenue. Surging around 31% on a Year-over-Year (YoY) basis and delivering revenue of 443.16 million US Dollars, ASRock is expecting to deliver even better results in 2020. When it comes to the underlying reasons for this notable increase, ASRock attributes it to the recent success of AMD's Ryzen family of processors and strong demand for the platform surrounding it. Adopting the AMD Ryzen processors in Mini-PCs, motherboards and server boards, ASRocks see strong demand for these products that should carry over in 2020.
Another reason for strong profits and even better chapters ahead is the developments in the US and European markets. Having previously been focused on the Asian market and marketing its products to that part, ASRock changed the strategy and started advertising its brand more to other regions like the US and Europe. This new strategy is progressing well and is expected to continue in the coming years. Additionally, it is worth noting that ASRock's graphics card sales started to turn profitable in 2019, and now that part of ASRock is attributing to profits as well.

where's the matx love from everyone else?
AsRock is a popular mobo maker. They have been making very appealing AM4 mobos before X570.
If anything on the consumer side was responsible, it's graphics cards. AsRock uses only AMD GPUs and their Navi lineup is quite good. AFAIK their Polaris/Vega stuff wasn't selling at all (they were late for the mining craze).
And of course AsRock is very active in industrial/embedded solutions.
Do they publish a financial statement in English?
This time around ASRock caught my attention so I pulled the plug and went with a Fatal1ty Gaming X mobo by ASRock. So far I'm happy with it though not sure if I would buy another ASRock for ZEN3 (My Next Upgrade). As it depends how much ASUS Crosshair x670 is going to sell for.
For me now they are starting to over segment their motherboards with their x570 boards. Their x470 lineup was excellent.
Next step is looking for a good TR40 board...
I ran an ASRock K10N780SLIX3-WiFi for nearly 5 years with a Phenom II x4 940. I cranked out as much voltage (1.55V) as the board would let me at one point to OC that CPU. I eventually settled with a 1.4875V at 3.6GHz....that extra .0625V to run at 3.7GHz wasn't worth the extra 10C of heat she put out that kept her right around 63C when doing heavy gaming.
Ran a z87 Extreme4 for about 3 years until it magically died. Sent it in for RMA and got it replaced. Running the replacement for about the past 3 years in my Plex server.
When the z87 died on me, I picked up a z97 Extreme4, but it was DOA. I had to return it to MicroCenter and ended up with an ASUS z97-AR that I've been using the past 3+ years now.
It seems to handle a 4.4ghz all core oc on a 3700x
