On Thursday, January 8, Samsung Electronics—the world’s largest manufacturer of memory chips—is set to release its preliminary fourth-quarter financial results for 2025. Propelled by the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, a global shortage of memory chips has ignited a wave of price surges. Analysts predict that Samsung’s operating profit for the quarter will soar by 160% year-on-year, potentially hitting a new peak since the third quarter of 2018. Some forecasts even suggest the figure could exceed 20 trillion won.
