Kwartalny zysk Samsunga wzrósł o 44 proc.

Samsung Electronics poprawił wyraźnie zysk operacyjny w pierwszym kwartale dzięki wczesnemu wypuszczeniu na rynek flagowego modelu smartfona oraz dobrej sprzedaży elektronicznych gadżetów.

Największy południowokoreański koncern osiągnął w pierwszym kwartale 9,3 bln wonów (8,3 mld USD) zysku operacyjnego, wynika z wstępnych szacunków opublikowanych w środę. Rynek oczekiwał 8,88 bln wonów.
Sprzedaż wzrosła o 17 proc. w ujęciu rocznym do 65 bln wonów. Samsung poda wynik netto później w tym miesiącu.

Samsung Electronics flags 53% jump in Q2 profit, tops estimates

SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) Co Ltd on Wednesday reported a likely 53% jump in second-quarter operating profit, beating market estimates on the back of strong chip prices and demand despite lower smartphone sales.

The preliminary result is up 33% from the first quarter and underscores the soaring demand for chips that has depleted stockpiles amid a pandemic-led consumer appetite for electronics and recovering investment in data centres.

The world's largest memory chip and smartphone maker said profit for the quarter ended June 30 was likely 12.5 trillion won ($11 billion), well above a Refinitiv SmartEstimate of 11.3 trillion won. If confirmed later this month, it would be the tech giant's biggest second-quarter profit since 2018.

"Third-quarter profit is expected to be even higher on strong mobile DRAM memory chip prices, and peak seasons for mobile and display businesses," said Park Sung-soon, analyst at Cape Investment & Securities.

For the second quarter, Samsung (KS:005930)'s chip division profit likely jumped by a fifth or more from a year earlier, analysts said, helped by strong memory-chip prices and demand for consumer electronics and from data centre customers.

Samsung's memory chip shipments, especially for DRAM chips widely used in servers, mobile phones and other computing devices, were larger than expected, contributing to chip profits that dwarfed a steep quarter-over-quarter fall in smartphone shipments.

Improved yield in cutting-edge 1z nanometre DRAM chip production using ASML's extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) machines also likely lessened costs from the first quarter, analysts said.

Profits at Samsung's chip contract manufacturing and logic chip design businesses were likely to have improved too as operations at a storm-hit factory in Texas returned to normal, analysts said.

"One of the most-anticipated elements in the earnings call later this month is how much the chip contract manufacturing business has progressed in competitiveness, and the current status of foundry customers and orders," said Lee Won-sik, analyst at Korea Investment & Securities.

"Another is what changes Samsung expects in memory chip profitability, as competitors like Micron are said to be narrowing the technology gap (with Samsung)," Lee added.

Last month, U.S. memory chip rival Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU) reported a quarterly profit that beat Wall Street estimates, and forecast current-quarter revenue above expectations.

SMARTPHONE SHIPMENTS

Samsung's smartphone shipments fell to about 59 million in April-June from about 76 million in the first quarter, according to Shinyoung Investment & Securities, as sales of its flagship model launched in the first quarter slowed.

New COVID-19 outbreaks in regions such as India and Vietnam, as well as constrained supply of mobile processor chips, also hurt smartphone shipments in the quarter, analysts said. These conditions are likely to improve in the second half, they added.

A one-off gain for Samsung's display unit, which analysts said was a compensation from Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) for previously ordering fewer components than agreed upon, was also included in the quarterly profit.

Revenue rose an estimated 19% from the same period a year earlier to 63 trillion won, Samsung said.

Samsung shares fell 1% in morning trade, while the wider market fell 0.7%. Samsung shares have traded nearly flat so far this year versus a 15% rise in the benchmark KOSPI.

Samsung released only limited data in Wednesday's regulatory filing ahead of the release of detailed earnings figures later this month.

Samsung's Lee visits U.S ahead of likely $17 billion chip plant decision-media

SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) vice chairman Jay Y. Lee is visiting North America in his first high-profile trip after serving jail time for bribery, with a decision imminent on the company's planned $17 billion U.S. chip plant.

Lee left Seoul on Sunday and his trip to Canada and the United States is expected to coincide with a decision on the location of the new plant, Yonhap and other local media said.

A site in Texas' Williamson County, near the city of Taylor, offered the better incentives package among various sites Samsung (KS:005930) has been considering for the new chip plant that is set to make advanced logic chips, sources previously told Reuters.

Since Samsung vice chairman Kim Kinam confirmed the chip plant plan in May, Samsung has been comparing incentives and working out who pays what in convoluted land and other agreements, while also considering the available amount of stable utilities such as water and electricity, one of the sources with knowledge of the matter said.

The source declined to be identified as they were not authorised to speak to media.

A winter storm in the first quarter hit Samsung's chip plant in Austin, Texas, laying bare the importance of stable utilities, as a shutdown caused by blackouts affected wafers corresponding to around 300-400 billion won ($254-339 million) of damages.

"I am set to meet many U.S. partners," Lee told reporters before his flight on Sunday, without elaborating.

He said he also expected to visit Boston, where COVID-19 vaccine maker Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA)'s headquarters are located.

Last month, South Korea granted emergency use approval for Moderna's vaccine produced by drugmaker Samsung BioLogics, which has a "fill and finish" deal with Moderna.

Lee was convicted in January of bribery and embezzlement and sentenced to 30 months in jail - including a year served before his sentencing. Upon his parole in August, the presidential office said it expected Lee will help the country procure "semiconductors and vaccines".

Samsung Electronics Q1 profit tops market expectations on solid chip demand

SEOUL (Reuters) -Samsung Electronics Co Ltd reported on Thursday an estimated 50% jump in quarterly operating earnings to post its highest first-quarter profit since 2018, beating expectations as solid demand underpinned prices for memory chips.

Earnings at the world's largest memory chip and smartphone maker were also supported by brisk smartphone sales in the quarter, along with a disruption at a rival NAND Flash chip plant, analysts said.

Samsung (KS:005930) put its first-quarter profit at 14.1 trillion won ($11.6 billion) in a preliminary earnings release, versus a Refinitiv SmartEstimate of 13.3 trillion won. Revenue likely rose 18% from the same period a year earlier to a record 77 trillion won, also above market expectations.

"The guidance beat market expectations, probably due to memory chip shipments and prices being better than expected," said Park Sung-soon, analyst at Cape Investment & Securities.

Although memory chip prices dipped in the first quarter, analysts said solid demand from data centre clients as well as cautious investment spending by chipmakers and limited capacity expansion buoyed Samsung's chip earnings, which make up about half of its total profits.

The chipmaker also likely benefited from a disruption at a rival NAND Flash chip plant owned by Japan's Kioxia and American firm Western Digital (NASDAQ:WDC) due to contamination of raw materials.

"After the contamination issue at Kioxia, I think there were rush orders for NAND Flash chips made to Samsung for products that were meant to be secured from Kioxia," Park said.

The disruption at the Kioxia plant in early February is expected to drive up NAND Flash prices by 5%-10%, offsetting the effects of modestly high inventories maintained by buyers, data provider TrendForce said.

Samsung shipped an estimated 72 million smartphones in the first quarter, Counterpoint Research said, down some 11% from a year earlier, mostly due to a later than usual release of its newest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S22.

The Galaxy S22 series globally sold some 50% more in the first week after its late February launch than its previous model S21, according to Sujeong Lim, an associate director at Counterpoint.

Samsung is estimated to have shipped slightly over 6 million units of the S22 series by the end of March, Lim said, adding that sales were in line with initial expectations.

Samsung is due to release detailed earnings on April 28, when investors will be interested to hear any comments on its M&A plans, how it plans to operate its memory chip business to boost profitability, and chip demand outlook.

Samsung shares fell 0.2% in morning trade, versus a 0.9% drop in the wider market.

Chips drive highest Samsung Q2 profit since 2018, but demand cooling

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) Co Ltd turned in its best April-June profit since 2018 on Thursday, underpinned by strong sales of memory chips to server customers even as demand from inflation-hit smartphone makers cools.

Shares of the world's largest memory-chip and smartphone maker closed up 3.2% after preliminary results were announced, versus a 1.8% rise in the wider market.

Shares of other chipmakers, including rival SK Hynix and the world's biggest foundry TSMC, also rose as analysts said tight supply of certain chips could help offset slower demand that is driving down memory chip prices.

Samsung (KS:005930) posted an operating profit of 14 trillion won ($10.7 billion), up 11% from 12.57 trillion won a year earlier, just shy of a 14.45 trillion won SmartEstimate from Refinitiv.

Revenue for the second quarter rose 21% to 77 trillion won, in line with market estimates.

The strong quarter for Samsung comes at a time when other chipmakers have warned of a looming chip glut at customers who stocked up during the pandemic to meet higher demand from people working from home.

Chipmakers including Micron (NASDAQ:MU) and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) have also recently signalled waning demand as red-hot inflation squeezes spending.

"Memory chipmakers are expected to build inventory this year, keeping supply conservative, and hike shipments when prices rebound and demand recovers next year", said Park Sung-soon, an analyst at Cape Investment & Securities.

Prices of specific DRAM chips, used in devices and servers, fell about 12% last month from a year ago, according to data provider TrendForce. Prices of NAND Flash chips, used for data storage, are also projected to fall as much as 5% in the July-September period from the previous quarter.

SMARTPHONE DEMAND WEAKENS

Rising inflation, concerns about a downturn in major markets, the war in Ukraine and China's COVID-19 lockdowns have resulted in slowing smartphone sales, leaving server chip demand as the only bright spot, analysts said.

Samsung's profits have been shielded as large U.S. tech firms such as Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL)'s Google and Meta that use a lot of data centre services kept buying chips to meet cloud demand, they added.

Making a case for strong server demand, Taiwanese contract electronics supplier and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone maker Foxconn on Monday raised its full-year outlook and said it was optimistic about the third quarter.

A strong dollar, which hit a 20-year high, may have also aided Samsung's chip profits in the second quarter.

Samsung's chip sales are made mainly in dollars, while it reports its profit in Korean won, so a firm greenback translates to higher chip earnings.

Estimated smartphone shipments by Samsung's mobile business in the second quarter were about 62-64 million, about 5%-8% lower than a March estimate, Counterpoint Research said, as inflation hit smartphone demand.

Samsung shipped 74 million smartphones in the first quarter.

"This trend is the same for major global smartphone makers, although there is variance to some degree ... In particular, the hit to the demand for low- and mid-end smartphones seems more severe," said Jene Park, Senior analyst at Counterpoint.

SEOUL (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics unveiled its latest high-end foldable smartphones on Wednesday, keeping prices at the same level as last year's in a bid to cement its leadership in an expanding niche market.

The smartphone maker priced its clamshell Galaxy Z Flip4 at $999.99, and the 5G-enabled top-line Galaxy Z Fold4 with a 7.6-inch main screen to start at $1,799.99 in the United States, the same as the launch prices of last year's models.

"We've successfully transformed this category from a radical project to a mainstream device lineup enjoyed by millions worldwide," said TM Roh, president and head of mobile experience at Samsung (KS:005930) Electronics.

The Galaxy Z Flip4 and Z Fold4, as well as its latest earbuds, Galaxy Buds2 Pro, will be generally available starting Aug. 26 in select places such as the United States, parts of Europe and South Korea.

Counterpoint Research forecast global shipments of foldable smartphones to grow to 16 million units this year, just 1.2% of the 1.36 billion smartphone shipments forecast, but a jump from 9 million foldables shipped last year.

Although the overall smartphone market is seen shrinking this year as consumers spend less, foldable smartphones are likely to fare better, as their quirky form factor, large screens and portability attract interest, analysts said.

Samsung held a 62% market share in foldable smartphones in the first half of 2022, followed by Huawei at 16% and Oppo at 3%. Counterpoint forecast Samsung's share in the second half will be around 80% after the new releases.

Samsung said it is aiming for foldable phone sales to surpass that of its past flagship smartphone, Galaxy Note, in the second half.

"Foldables have helped Samsung differentiate itself... Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) will be Samsung's key competitor in the future and we expect a foldable to be released from Apple in either 2024 or 2025," said Counterpoint senior analyst Jene Park.

Samsung said the latest models make it easier for phone owners to use popular apps such as Instagram and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT)'s Outlook.

Zysk operacyjny Samsung Electronics spadł 69% do 3,4 mld USD w ostatnim kwartale, który zakończył się w grudniu do ośmioletniego minimum, według wstępnych szacunków, ponieważ globalny popyt na układy pamięci i smartfony zmalał. Firma powiedziała: „W warunkach ciągłej niepewności ze strony czynników zewnętrznych, w tym potencjalnego globalnego spowolnienia gospodarczego, ogólne zyski spadły gwałtownie z kwartału na kwartał, ponieważ odnotowaliśmy znaczny spadek wyników działalności w zakresie pamięci ze względu na brak popytu i słabszą sprzedaż smartfonów”. Koreański gigant odnotował kwartalną sprzedaż na poziomie 70 bln KRW lub 55 mld USD, co oznacza spadek o około 8,6% w stosunku do tego samego okresu w roku ubiegłym. Firma wyda pełne zestawienie zysków, w tym na temat zysku netto, za czwarty kwartał i poda więcej szczegółów pod koniec tego miesiąca. Rząd Korei Południowej oznajmił wcześniej w tym tygodniu, że planuje zwiększyć ulgi podatkowe dla firm produkujących półprzewodniki.

Samsung to keep up chip investment, undeterred by 8-year-low profit

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) Co Ltd on Tuesday indicated it has no plan to cut investment in chips this year, even as a weak global economy condemns the industry to its worst downturn in over a decade.

The guidance bucks a broader industry trend to scale back spending and output, fanning concern that the world's biggest memory chipmaker intends to draw on its deep pockets and superior profit margins to gain market share from smaller peers.

"Samsung (KS:005930) might be seeing this time as a good opportunity to increase market share, which should help it in the long term, at the expense of SK Hynix and Micron," said analyst Choi Yoo-june at Shinhan Securities.

Greg Roh, head of research at Hyundai Motor Securities, estimated Samsung Electronics' market share may reach the upper 40% range for DRAM chips and mid-30% range for NAND flash memory chips in the second half of the year, from around 43% and 32%.

Instead of cutting investment in response to slowing demand and falling prices, Samsung signalled it would curb short-term production organically through line maintenance, equipment adjustment and moving to advanced chipmaking processes. It also said it would increase the proportion of capital investment that goes into research and development.

"Samsung, in a roundabout way, is saying production will decrease slightly," said analyst Kim Yang-jae at Daol Investment and Securities. "However, investors were hoping for a stronger production cut, or a comment about faster market rebound - so its shares fell."

The share prices of Samsung and compatriot SK Hynix Inc fell 3% and 2.2% respectively on Tuesday.

Samsung said capital spending in 2023 would be similar to 2022, in contrast to SK Hynix and Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU) which have said they would slash investment. In contract chipmaking, bigger rival Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd has also announced a spending cut.

The global technology industry has been battling a sharp and sudden downturn in demand since late last year, as companies cut spending on tech products and services while consumers spend less on discretionary goods in the face of surging inflation.

CHIP PROFIT TUMBLES

Earlier on Tuesday, Samsung reported its lowest quarterly profit since 2014 and said persistent macroeconomic uncertainty will make for a tough first half of this year, though it expects demand to start recovering in the second half.

Sluggish demand and inventory adjustment will continue to impact the chip business in the first quarter, while smartphone demand is likely to decline year-on-year due to economic slowdown in major regions, Samsung said.

At 4.3 trillion won ($3.49 billion), October-December operating profit was Samsung's lowest quarterly profit in eight years. Revenue fell 8% to 70.5 trillion won.

With memory chip prices falling by double-digit percentages in 2022, Samsung's chip profit tumbled - to about 270 billion won in the fourth quarter from 8.83 trillion won a year earlier, marking the lowest since the first quarter of 2009.

Some analysts expect the chip business to book a loss in the first quarter, pulling overall profit below that of the fourth.

Last week, chipmaker Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC) said it expects to lose money in the current quarter as the personal computer industry experiences a chip glut.

In mobile, Samsung said fourth-quarter profit fell to 1.7 trillion won from 2.66 trillion won a year earlier, as a decline in low- and mid-end smartphone sales was greater than expected.
