Halbleiter: Samsung will fast 70 Milliarden Euro an Aktionäre ausschütten
Samsung beschert seinen Aktionären die bislang höchste Aktionärsrendite eines koreanischen Unternehmens. Hohe Gewinne wurden vor allem aus einer Sparte erzielt.
Samsung Electronics, the South Korean tech giant, has announced plans to distribute significantly more money to shareholders this year than ever before. For the year 2026, the company expects to issue between 56 and 68 billion Euros in dividends to its shareholders, marking the largest shareholder payout of any Korean company to date.
This payout is approximately five times higher than Samsung's previous maximum shareholder return of 20.3 billion Euros in 2020. The record payout is primarily driven by the semiconductor business's exceptionally high profits. In the last three fiscal quarters, Samsung Electronics achieved its highest-ever operating profit in its history, largely due to the continued high demand for AI infrastructure.
Samsung Electronics is one of the world's leading producers of semiconductor chips, particularly in the high-performance memory chip segment, and is therefore particularly benefiting from the boom in the artificial intelligence business.
