Hynix Foresees AI Memory Boom

SK Hynix anticipates substantial growth in the AI memory market, projecting an annual increase of 30% through to 2030. This forecast highlights the increasing demand for specialised memory chips, particularly high-bandwidth memory (HBM), driven by the expansion of AI applications and large language models.

The company's strategic focus on HBM production aims to solidify its position as a key supplier in the AI sector. SK Hynix is also the key supplier to Nvidia. This emphasis on high-volume, high-margin HBM production has enabled SK Hynix to reduce its unit production costs by 12% annually since 2020.

The optimistic outlook suggests a significant opportunity for SK Hynix to capitalise on the escalating need for advanced memory solutions in AI, potentially overtaking competitors in the DRAM market.
