As the world’s largest memory chip manufacturer, the company reported a net income of 6.62 trillion won (approximately $4.8 billion) for the first quarter of the year, surpassing analysts’ expectations who had predicted a net income of 5.63 trillion won.

These results indicate a substantial improvement in the company’s performance compared to the previous year, with profits increasing more than fourfold. The growing demand for memory chips, widely used in modern electronic devices and AI-based systems, has begun to recover after a significant downturn, contributing to a stock price increase of less than 1% in early trading in Seoul.

Amid global economic uncertainties that have led to a continuous decline in performance over the past year, this recovery signals the company’s strength and resilience. Additionally, data released by South Korean trade this month shows that semiconductor shipments led the growth in national exports during the first twenty days of April, with a 43% increase compared to last year.

Samsung anticipates continued strong demand for chips during the current quarter and the second half of the year, reflecting optimism in the industry, largely due to the accelerated growth in the field of generative artificial intelligence.
