SK hynix boosts buyback to 40T won, ups shareholder returns despite rising competition risks

SK hynix has approved a record 40 trillion won share buyback and increased its shareholder return target to over 50% of cumulative free cash flow. The stock trades at a forward P/E of 7 and a forward free cash flow yield of 10.7%, both significantly lower than its peers, making it attractive for investors. However, risks include increased Chinese DRAM supply, a permanent 10% profit-sharing charge, and potential capital expenditures for US manufacturing. Despite these challenges, the company's strong capital return commitments and valuation support a Buy rating.

SK hynix shares trade at USD 189.81 on Pluang as of Sep 23, 2026 19:01 WIB, down 2.85% for the day. The stock's market cap stands at $952.29 billion with a 68% buy order activity. Investors typically hold SKHY for about 4 days on the platform.
