Citrini Analyst: SK Hynix Operating Profit Expected to Reach 60.4 Trillion KRW, 8% Below Market Consensus

Odaily news, Citrini analyst jukan posted on X platform, stating that local South Korean brokerages expect SK Hynix's operating profit to reach 60.4 trillion KRW, a 61% increase quarter-over-quarter and a 556% increase year-over-year, but still 8% below the market consensus of 65 trillion KRW. The shortfall is mainly due to SK Hynix's higher proportion of HBM revenue compared to its peers, resulting in its average selling price growth being lower than the market average.
