In June 2026, the foundry business under Samsung Electronics' Device Solutions (DS) division is forecasted to record its first monthly profit in three years. Since 2023, this business segment has suffered cumulative losses amounting to nearly KRW 14 trillion (equivalent to approximately RMB 61.642 billion). These losses stemmed from various challenges, including low yields in cutting-edge manufacturing processes, missed order opportunities, and underutilization of production lines.
This year, however, its financial outlook has brightened, thanks to securing orders for HBM4 base die, foundry contracts for AI5/AI6 and LPU with industry giants Tesla and NVIDIA, as well as improved yields in the 4nm process technology. Nevertheless, uncertainty looms over whether the entire business will turn a profit in the second quarter of 2026.
