SK海力士大賺69% 瞄準AI晶片市場爆升




SK海力士公佈創紀錄季度利潤,計劃加大今年投資以應對AI晶片需求

首爾消息——韓國晶片製造商SK海力士於週四公佈了創紀錄的季度利潤後,表示今年將加大資本支出,作為Nvidia的供應商,希望緩解投資者對人工智能晶片增長放緩的擔憂。

這家南韓晶片巨頭指出,需求增長將由客戶推出的新型號驅動,並預計2025年高頻寬記憶體(HBM)晶片銷量將較2024年翻倍。消息發出後,SK海力士股價在早盤上漲超過3%,明顯跑贏同期上升0.8%的韓國綜合股價指數(KOSPI)。

雖然公司未具體透露2025年的投資規模,但NH投資證券的高級分析師柳永浩認為,SK海力士積極回應客戶需求的舉措,顯示其對未來充滿信心,尤其面對三星電子的激烈競爭壓力。

在收益電話會議中,SK海力士還透露正與一位主要客戶就明年銷售進行談判,進展「按計劃進行」,但未作進一步說明。今年3月,該公司曾表示計劃在上半年內敲定2026年的銷售合約。

SK海力士在聲明中指出:「隨著大型科技公司在提升AI模型推理能力方面的競爭加劇,預計對高性能及大容量記憶體產品的需求將進一步增長。」

美國政策的動盪和關稅問題一直為多家公司前景蒙上陰影,SK海力士表示,部分收益增長得益於客戶為應對潛在關稅提前增加庫存的需求。

本月早些時候,美國總統特朗普威脅將對半導體產品徵收關稅。SK海力士曾在4月表示,其對美國的出口比例不高,但分析師指出,公司可能面臨因美國關稅導致客戶成本壓力而帶來的價格挑戰。

原定於本週五舉行的美韓關稅談判會議被取消,在日本與美國本週達成關稅協議後,市場對達成美韓協議的期待一度提升。

SK海力士公佈,2024年4至6月營業利潤達9.2兆韓元(約合66.9億美元),較去年同期的5.5兆韓元增長69%,略高於LSEG SmartEstimate預測的9.0兆韓元平均值。同期營收增長35%,達22.2兆韓元。

SK海力士與三星電子的競爭態勢

SK海力士的季度利潤幾乎是其本土競爭對手三星電子預測利潤的兩倍。三星本月預計,由於AI晶片銷售疲軟,第二季度營業利潤將同比大跌56%。

由於在HBM晶片領域的領先地位,SK海力士在今年第一季度超越三星,成為全球最大的記憶體晶片製造商。HBM晶片是Nvidia等企業設計的AI晶片核心部件,有助於處理大量數據以訓練AI模型。

分析師指出,儘管SK海力士近期連續受惠於強勁的AI需求錄得創紀錄利潤,但面對美國潛在關稅和競爭對手加劇的市場壓力,公司仍需保持警惕。

值得注意的是,上週四,受高盛將SK海力士股票評級下調至「中性」影響,股價當日收跌約9%。高盛預計,HBM晶片價格將於明年首次下跌。

截至目前,SK海力士今年股價已大幅飆升54.7%,遠超KOSPI指數同期32.7%的漲幅。

評論與啟示

SK海力士本次公佈的強勁業績和積極的投資計劃,彰顯了其在AI晶片高速成長浪潮中的戰略布局。面對美國關稅政策的不確定性及三星的激烈競爭,SK海力士選擇提前部署,試圖鞏固其在高頻寬記憶體市場的領導地位,這不僅反映出其對客戶需求的敏銳洞察,也顯示出對自身技術優勢的信心。

不過,高盛對HBM價格可能下跌的警告提醒我們,市場競爭和技術更新速度極快,價格壓力和供應鏈風險不容忽視。SK海力士能否保持利潤增長,取決於其如何在技術創新、成本控制和全球貿易環境中取得平衡。

此外,美國與韓國的關稅談判取消,突顯了地緣政治對半導體產業的深遠影響。這也再次提醒投資者,半導體行業的發展不僅受技術驅動,更深受國際政治經濟環境左右。對香港及全球投資者而言,密切關注這些宏觀因素,將有助於在變幻莫測的市場中作出更明智的判斷。

總體來看,SK海力士的表現和策略提供了一個關於如何在AI趨勢和全球政治經濟變局中尋找機遇的寶貴範例,值得業界和投資者深入研究和借鑒。

​"Close-up, dramatic split lighting combined with linear shadows, black background, glossy lips and subtle skin texture, photorealistic digital art, professional portrait photography. Highly detailed, artistic illustration of two cats sitting together on the bustling Nathan Road in Hong Kong. One cat is a sleek black feline with emerald green eyes, the other is a fluffy ginger tabby with white paws. They are perched near the neon-lit storefronts and glowing billboards, surrounded by vibrant city life: crowds of people, bright taxis, and street vendors selling local food. The scene is alive with colorful reflections on rain-slicked pavement, atmospheric mist, and dramatic lighting from neon signs in Chinese characters. The artistry should blend urban realism with a touch of whimsical charm, focusing on the cats' expressive faces and the dynamic ambiance of Nathan Road at night.
