SK hynix is projected to achieve its first-ever operating profit surpassing 100 trillion won in Q4, according to analysis by KB Securities. The brokerage maintains a "Buy" rating on the company's stock, with a target price of 3.5 million won per share. Analyst Kim Dong-won attributes this potential profit surge to a combination of record earnings and undervaluation, stating the stock is trading at just three times its projected earnings for the next year.
SK hynix's Q4 operating profit is expected to rise 441% from the previous year, reaching 104 trillion won, while the operating margin is forecast to hit a record 83%. The growth in earnings is attributed to higher shipment volumes and average selling prices for DRAM and NAND flash memory. SK hynix plans to invest approximately 100 trillion won in a shareholder return program, including 60 trillion won in treasury-share cancellations and over 30 trillion won in cash dividends, marking the largest such initiative on record.
