I. Market Background

In Q1 2026, global AI server capital expenditure continued to surge, driving the Korean semiconductor industry into a historic super-profit cycle. HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) supply and demand remained extremely tight, with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, the global memory duopoly, firmly dominating the high-end market. At the same time, Hyundai Motor emerged as a key pillar of Korea’s export sector, leveraging strong hybrid vehicle sales to successfully offset fluctuations in pure EV demand.

005930.KS (Samsung Electronics) reported Q1 consolidated revenue of KRW 133.9 trillion, a new quarterly record. Operating profit reached KRW 57.2 trillion (approx. USD 38 billion), surging 755% year-on-year and setting a new single-quarter profit record for Korean companies.

000660.KS (SK Hynix) posted Q1 revenue of KRW 52.58 trillion (+198% YoY) and operating profit of approximately KRW 37.61 trillion (approx. USD 25 billion), up 405% year-on-year, with an impressive operating margin of 72%.

005380.KS (Hyundai Motor) achieved Q1 consolidated revenue of KRW 45.94 trillion, hitting a new quarterly high with 3.4% year-on-year growth. Despite pressure from U.S. tariffs and incentive costs, operating profit stood at KRW 2.51 trillion (approx. USD 1.7 billion).

The company maintained solid top-line growth driven by high-margin hybrid models, with global market share continuing to rise. Hybrid vehicle sales recorded significant year-on-year growth, becoming the standout highlight of Q1 performance.

II. Core Investment Thesis

AI computing demand has fully shifted from training to inference and Agentic AI, driving both volume and price increases across HBM, DRAM, and enterprise SSDs. Memory prices have risen sharply, while the high-end HBM capacity gap remains as high as 50-60%. The Korean duo’s 2026 HBM4 capacity has already been fully sold out and locked in with major clients, making the supply shortage likely to persist for the next three years.

Samsung Electronics is regaining its edge through its largest production scale and breakthroughs in HBM4 technology;
SK Hynix maintains its leadership position through deep strategic collaboration with NVIDIA;
Hyundai Motor is expected to return to a high-growth trajectory in the second half of the year as new models ramp up and new factories come online.

The three major Korean giants — Samsung, SK Hynix, and Hyundai Motor — are competing on the same stage. With earnings likely to exceed expectations, this is expected to continue driving strong stock performance. The high-prosperity cycle of Korea’s leading industries is poised to extend over the medium to long term.
