Analysis

SK Hynix will repurchase and cancel $28.6 billion of its shares while lifting its shareholder return target above 50% of free cash flow through 2027, financed by record profits from AI memory chips, according to the announcement from @BullTheoryio. The firm holds 69 trillion won in net cash, making the buyback roughly 58% of that reserve, and the $SKHY ADR rose 8% in premarket trading.
