SK Hynix has signed a large contract to acquire Intel’s entire US NAND memory semiconductor business division for KRW 1.33 trillion.

In the field of memory semiconductors, it seems that the amount of matches has been thrown to jump to second place in the world after Samsung Electronics.

The largest contract in the history of mergers and acquisitions in Korea came out.

SK Hynix signed a transfer agreement to acquire Intel’s memory business unit, the NAND division, for $ 9 billion.

Exceeds the acquisition of Harman by Samsung Electronics.

The entire NAND business, including Intel’s NAND SSD, a semiconductor storage device, a single NAND product, and Dalian Fab’s production facility in China, is subject to acquisition.

SK hynix ranks second after Samsung Electronics in the DRAM segment, but in the NAND segment, it is fifth in the world.

When this transaction is completed, the NAND market share is expected to reach 20%, surpassing Japan’s Kioxia to become second in the world.

Intel is the world’s leading semiconductor company and the strongest in the computer CPU and central processing unit industry.

Although SSD technology is also at the highest level of the company, we have been pursuing the reorganization of the memory business, which is relatively incompetent.

SK hynix plans to work with Intel to obtain regulatory approvals from major countries by the end of next year.
