Memory chip specialist SK Hynix reports record-breaking profits but doesn't have a word to say about almost anything apart from AI

2025 was a bumper year for Korean memory specialist SK Hynix. In fact, the latest financial results show it was the company's best year ever. Do I even have to explain why? OK, it's AI, of course.

But first, the bald numbers. SK Hynix raked in 97 trillion KRW in revenues in 2025. That's about $67 billion dollars in old money. Profits, meanwhile, hit $33 billion, giving the company stellar operating margins of 49%.

Compared to 2024, revenues climbed by 47%. However, profits slightly more than doubled.
