Core Viewpoint - Samsung Electronics has signed a semiconductor foundry contract worth 22.7648 trillion KRW (approximately 118.3 billion RMB) with an international giant, with the contract period ending on December 31, 2033, but details remain confidential [2]. Group 1: Samsung's Foundry Performance - Samsung's foundry revenue for Q1 2025 was $2.89 billion, a decline of 11.3% from the previous quarter, with market share dropping from 8.1% to 7.7% [3][5]. - The decline in Samsung's foundry business is attributed to limited exposure to China's consumer subsidy plans and restrictions on advanced nodes imposed by the U.S. [6]. - Samsung is at risk of being surpassed by SMIC, which has seen a revenue increase of 1.8% to $2.25 billion, raising its market share from 5.5% to 6% [6][7]. Group 2: Future Prospects and Strategies - Samsung remains optimistic about regaining market position with the upcoming 2nm process technology, planning to integrate the 2nm Exynos 2600 chip into the Galaxy S26 series [7][11]. - The company is enhancing its manufacturing processes to achieve faster and more powerful computing capabilities, aiming to secure orders from major global tech companies [8]. - Samsung's foundry is currently producing NVIDIA's T239 chip using its 8nm process, which is expected to generate over $1.2 billion in sales due to the popularity of the Nintendo Switch 2 [10]. Group 3: Technological Advancements - Samsung plans to utilize its 1c process technology for DRAM production, which is expected to differentiate its HBM4 chips from competitors [9]. - The company is also adopting 2nm and Gate-All-Around technologies to compete for orders from Qualcomm and NVIDIA for next-generation application processors [12]. - Analysts are optimistic about Samsung's third-quarter profit outlook, with projected operating profit for the DS division reaching 4.61 trillion KRW, a year-on-year increase of 19.43% [12].

Core Viewpoint - Samsung Electronics has reported its first profit decline since 2023, primarily due to U.S. restrictions on AI chip sales to China and setbacks in selling advanced memory to Nvidia [1][2]. Financial Performance - Samsung's preliminary operating profit for Q2 is estimated at 4.6 trillion KRW (approximately 3.3 billion USD), a decrease of about 56% year-over-year [1]. - Analysts had anticipated a 41% decline in revenue, with the chip division's operating profit expected to reach 2.7 trillion KRW, up from 1.1 trillion KRW in the previous quarter but still down from 6.5 trillion KRW a year ago [2]. Market Position and Competition - Samsung is striving to regain its leading position in the high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chip sector, crucial for driving Nvidia's AI accelerators [2][5]. - The company’s latest product, the 12-layer HBM3E, has not yet received certification from Nvidia, allowing competitors like SK Hynix to gain an advantage [2][5]. - SK Hynix is positioned as a primary supplier for Nvidia, having delivered the first 12-layer HBM4 samples, while Micron Technology is also advancing rapidly in the market [5]. Future Outlook - Samsung plans to start mass production of HBM4 chips in the second half of the year and aims to close the gap with competitors [5][6]. - Analysts predict that SK Hynix will hold a 57% market share in HBM by 2025, followed by Samsung at 27% and Micron at 16% [6]. - Samsung's chip business head has acknowledged the need to improve its HBM market position and has committed to avoiding past mistakes with HBM4 [6].

Core Viewpoint - The article highlights the optimistic outlook for the artificial intelligence (AI) chip sector, prompting major South Korean semiconductor companies to increase their facility investments to capture future market share [1]. Group 1: Samsung's Developments - Samsung is preparing to restart the construction of its P4 chip manufacturing line in Pyeongtaek, which was halted last year. The P4 factory will have a total monthly capacity of 200,000 wafers, with the fourth phase expected to contribute 40% of this capacity, equating to 80,000 wafers per month [2][3]. - The P4 factory's production lines, initially intended for foundry services, are now expected to be converted to DRAM production lines using 10nm technology for the sixth generation 1c DRAM. Samsung has confirmed the successful development of this advanced technology for the next generation high bandwidth memory (HBM4) chips [2]. - There are reports that Samsung is also considering restarting the construction of its fifth manufacturing plant (P5) in Pyeongtaek, which was paused earlier. The P5 plant is projected to require an investment of over 30 trillion KRW (approximately 22 billion USD) and will produce DRAM, NAND flash, and foundry products [3]. Group 2: SK Hynix's Expansion - SK Hynix is also planning to expand its production capacity in the coming years. The company is set to complete the construction of its new M15X factory in Cheongju, South Korea, later this year, which will produce fifth-generation 10nm DRAM chips for the next generation HBM4 products. This factory is expected to have a monthly capacity of around 90,000 wafers [4]. - Additionally, SK Hynix is investing in a new backend production facility named "P&T 7" in Cheongju to enhance its packaging capabilities and improve the performance and power efficiency of its advanced chips [4]. Group 3: Market Outlook - Strong demand for DRAM is anticipated in the second half of the year, particularly for HBM chips that support AI processors. According to the Korea Export-Import Bank, the global AI semiconductor market is expected to grow from 41.1 billion USD in 2022 to 133 billion USD by 2028 [5].
