    Samsung Q3 Profit Hits Record on AI-Driven HBM Demand; Foundry Still Loss-Making

    Original: 或成全球科技公司首例，三星预计单季利润冲破百万亿韩元

    • Samsung's projected Q3 operating profit of 107.4 trillion KRW represents a nearly 9-fold YoY increase, setting a new global record for quarterly profits among tech companies.
    • Surging demand for HBM, DRAM, and NAND driven by AI data processing needs has been the primary driver of profit growth.
    • The memory boom pressures other divisions: Mobile business lost over $1 billion, while the foundry unit continues to lose money due to high fixed costs and low capacity utilization.
