According to S&P Global Market Intelligence, driven by the AI memory chip boom dividends, two major Korean chip companies have created record shareholder returns, and SK Hynix may announce a new round of stock repurchase plans of up to 40 trillion won in the fourth quarter. Mohammad Hassan, head of dividend forecasting for S&P Asia Pacific shares, said in an interview: “We expect more buyback plans to be announced in the fourth quarter.” He said, “The lower limit for the new round of repurchases may be 20 trillion won, and it is also possible that it will reach 40 trillion won again.” He added that even with the implementation of a new round of large-scale repurchases, SK Hynix will still be able to pay a “substantial and generous dividend.”
