From marketbrief.now
AI;DR
Samsung Electronics reported third-quarter sales of 195.3 trillion won and an operating profit of 107.4 trillion won, driven by demand for AI infrastructure memory chips. The semiconductor division contributed 106.5 trillion won to operating profit, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of record earnings, though net profit of 75.21 trillion won fell short of analyst expectations. Samsung plans to increase capital expenditures to 84.4 trillion won in 2026, a roughly 60% rise from 2025 spending.
