Record performance

Q2 2026 revenue 79.3187 trillion won (+51% QoQ, +257% YoY); operating profit 60.5426 trillion won (+61% QoQ, +557% YoY); net income 93.9226 trillion won (+133% QoQ, +1,242% YoY vs Q2 2025).

Profitability

Operating margin reached 76% (up 4 percentage points QoQ); net margin reported at 118%, reflecting exceptionally strong high‑value product mix and profitability drivers in the quarter.

Cash and balance sheet

Cash and cash equivalents rose to 88 trillion won (up 33.6 trillion won QoQ); total debt 18.6 trillion won, yielding a net cash position of 69.4 trillion won and materially improved financial flexibility.

Product & technology leadership

HBM4 began mass shipments in Q2, meeting customer speed requirements with industry‑leading power efficiency and cost competitiveness; HBM4E completed sample shipments and is positioned for stable mass production.

Demand drivers and customer ties

Strong AI infrastructure demand drove price increases and high‑value product sales (HBM, AI DRAM, eSSD). SK hynix signed Long‑Term Agreements with around 10 key customers and is pursuing additional multi‑year deals to secure mid‑to‑long‑term supply stability.

Production & capacity plans

Company will accelerate mass production schedules (M15X), ramp HBM4 volume in H2, and phase investments (Yongin Phase 1 cleanroom in early 2027, P&T7 advanced packaging, M17 NAND) while maintaining CapEx discipline.

NAND roadmap

321‑layer NAND now the largest share of production; SK hynix targets ~50% of domestic NAND production on 321‑layer by year‑end and is shifting toward high‑capacity/high‑performance nodes.

Notes and forward‑looking caution

Figures are preliminary under K‑IFRS and subject to audit/adjustment; the company highlights forward‑looking risks and states this information is current as of July 29, 2026.
