Samsung's second quarter earnings report showed that Samsung's memory chip business contributed up to 70% of profits, but with the global economic downturn and shrinking demand for smartphones and PC applications, the memory chip market growth will slow down in the second half of the year. Faced with this situation, Samsung began to expand its foundry business.
In July this year, Samsung announced that it had successfully shipped its 3nm chips using GAA technology. According to The Korea Herald today, Kyung Kye-hyun, head of Samsung's semiconductor division and co-CEO of the company, said at a media conference that Samsung's chip foundry business will improve significantly by the end of next year. Kyung also said that Samsung expects the sharp decline in chip sales to continue into next year. The second half of this year looks bad, and it seems that the momentum for improvement next year is not obvious", he said. However, regardless of the outlook for chip sales, Samsung will continue to develop its foundry business to remain competitive. data from market research firm TrendForce indicates that TSMC's share of the global chip foundry market was 54 percent in the first quarter of 2022, more than three times that of Samsung. Samsung officials said in July this year, "We are currently restructuring our system-on-a-chip (SoC) business model and are working on a plan to strengthen our medium- to long-term competitiveness."
