SK Hynix Company & Business News — Earnings, Management, Strategy
As of 2026-07-17 07:44 KST · KRX 000660 · Nasdaq ADR SKHY
Company take Three axes frame today's company story — the Nasdaq ADR listing, HBM capacity investment, and the profit-sharing / treasury-stock talks.
- Nasdaq ADR (SKHY) listing — the July 10 US listing raised roughly $26.5 billion, and the ADR now sits at a 23.1% premium over the Seoul close, so overseas investors value SK Hynix above its home market.
- HBM & NAND capacity investment — first equipment orders for the Yongin fab, expanded US investment and a strengthened NAND growth axis put AI-memory capacity expansion at the center of company strategy.
- Profit-sharing / treasury-stock talks — a plan to pay about half of Profit Sharing (PS) in treasury stock has become a negotiation point with the union. The payout mix and sale restrictions are the crux.
- On price and valuation, the brokerage average target is ₩3,988,888 (implying +116.6% upside versus the current price) — targets held at a Buy through the correction (snapshot and deeper reads below).
