According to the source, SK Hynix intends to allocate part of its semiconductor production to a separate company.
In this case, we are talking about the division Foundry Solution, specializing in the production of semiconductor wafers, plate processing, elimination of defects in semiconductors, increasing the yield of suitable products and so on.
After approval of this process by the board of directors, SK Hynix will begin to separate this business into a separate company, which is presumably called SK Hynix System IC. This should happen on July 1.
This step should help the company attract more customers for the semiconductor business as a whole. Last year, the above-mentioned unit brought the company about $ 106 million, which is less than 1% of all proceeds of SK Hynix.
