Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call conveyed a strongly positive operational and financial quarter driven by AI-related demand and technology leadership—record revenue, record operating profit and major memory/foundry milestones (HBM4 mass production, HBM4E sampling, 2nm progress). At the same time, several near-term headwinds were highlighted: rising component and logistics costs, margin pressure in DX/MX, persistent memory supply constraints, geopolitical/energy risks, and labor uncertainty. Management provided mitigating actions (product mix, premium focus, supply diversification, CapEx and R&D investments) and maintained an optimistic outlook for semiconductor demand, leading to a net positive tone despite notable risks.
Company Guidance
The company guided to continued strength in semiconductors in Q2—driven by AI demand and an ongoing memory price uptrend—with DRAM bit growth expected to rise by a single-digit % Q‑on‑Q and NAND bit growth constrained to the low single-digit % Q‑on‑Q, while overall earnings are expected to improve sequentially even as DX (device eXperience) profits are forecast to decline due to cost pressures; management said HBM sales should rise meaningfully (HBM expected to grow >3x YoY in 2026, with HBM4 to exceed ~50% of HBM sales from Q3 and roughly half for the full year, and HBM4E samples in Q2). First‑quarter anchors included record revenue of KRW 134 trillion, operating profit KRW 57 trillion (43% margin), net profit KRW 47 trillion and EPS ~KRW 7,123, while Q1 CapEx was KRW 11.2 trillion (KRW 10.2T to DS, KRW 0.6T to Display) and full‑year CapEx is expected to rise substantially YoY as the company plans >KRW 110 trillion of facilities and R&D investment; currency movements added ~KRW 1.8 trillion to Q‑on‑Q operating profit. Shareholder returns: a KRW 372 quarterly dividend per share was approved, the 2024–26 policy commits to at least KRW 9.8 trillion in regular dividends (KRW 2.5 trillion annually), and the Board completed cancellation of repurchased shares (73.4M common + 13.6M preferred, ~KRW 14.6 trillion valuation) while retaining KRW 1.6 trillion of treasury shares for employee compensation.
Record Quarterly Revenue
Total revenue reached a record KRW 134 trillion, up 43% quarter-on-quarter.
Record Operating Profit and Margin Expansion
Operating profit hit an all-time high of KRW 57 trillion, up 185% QoQ; operating margin expanded to 43% from 21% in the prior quarter.
Strong Net Profit and EPS
Net profit was KRW 47 trillion (2.4x the previous quarter); earnings per share were KRW 7,123 (common) and KRW 7,124 (preferred).
Memory Business Leadership and HBM4 Ramp
Memory posted its second straight quarterly earnings record. HBM4 mass production and shipments began (industry first); company expects HBM sales to grow >3x YoY in 2026 with HBM4 accounting for >50% of HBM sales from Q3 and ~half for the full year. DRAM bit growth was low-teens QoQ and NAND bit growth was ~low-20s QoQ in Q1; blended ASP rose substantially (DRAM up ~low-90% QoQ, NAND up ~high-80% QoQ). HBM4E samples planned in Q2.
Foundry and Advanced Process Progress
Foundry achieved double-digit year-on-year revenue growth, expanded customer base including HPC/AI accounts, secured a strategic silicon photonics project, progressed 1.4nm development and engaged customers for 2nm with 2nd-gen 2nm mass production planned in H2.
Shareholder Returns and Capital Actions
Board approved a quarterly dividend of KRW 372 per share; committed to minimum annual regular dividends of KRW 9.8 trillion (2024-2026). Completed cancellation of treasury shares totaling ~73.4M common and 13.6M preferred (approx. KRW 14.6 trillion valuation), retaining KRW 1.6 trillion for employee compensation.
