SK hynix plans to announce additional shareholder return measures within the year. However, the specific method, size, and timing have not yet been finalized.
SK hynix said on the 29th during its second-quarter earnings conference call that it has set balanced capital allocation as its goal, striking a balance among future investments to seize structural growth opportunities in the AI era, maintaining a stable financial structure, and returns to enhance shareholder value.
It added that it fully recognizes the market's strong interest in shareholder returns and is reviewing various forms of additional shareholder return measures.
However, it said it would be difficult to immediately disclose any new material information that was not made public during the offering process due to regulatory and procedural constraints related to the ADR offering.
SK hynix said, "It is difficult at this time to specify the method, size, and timing of shareholder returns," adding, "We will prepare to share the plan with the market within the year as soon as it is finalized." It added, "We will manage capital allocation in a way that raises shareholder value based on steady cash generation, while executing growth investments in a timely manner and maintaining a stable financial structure."
