Jul 5, 2024, 01:16 AM
Samsung Electronics has reported a significant surge in its second-quarter profits, driven by the booming demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips. The company estimates its Q2 operating profit to have increased more than 15-fold, reaching 10.4 trillion won ($7.5 billion), far exceeding market expectations of 8.34 trillion won. This marks the highest profit since 2022, propelled by a recovery in memory chip prices and robust AI demand.
