SK Hynix Lists Nasdaq SKHY to Fund Its Memory Fabrication Capacity

SK Hynix launched American depositary receipts on the Nasdaq under the ticker SKHY, raising approximately $26.5 billion to expand memory fabrication and advanced packaging capacity in South Korea. Priced at $149 per ADR, the offering was reportedly more than seven times oversubscribed and gives U.S. investors direct access to a leading supplier of high-bandwidth memory used in AI accelerators.

The company plans to direct the proceeds toward a new semiconductor fabrication plant, an advanced packaging facility and 11.9 trillion won in extreme ultraviolet lithography equipment. Cornerstone investors indicated interest in up to $7 billion of the offering, while SK Hynix is estimated to hold approximately 50% to 55% of the global HBM market.

For investors and AI infrastructure developers, the listing channels substantial capital into a critical hardware segment supporting GPUs and data centers. The debut may also reshape valuation comparisons with memory rivals Micron and Samsung.
