There is no stock score on this page. The score is computed from audited XBRL filings on SEC EDGAR and includes a 20-point insider component built from Form 4s, and a Korean company files neither, so a grade here would be measuring something different from the same letter on a US hub. These are the reported figures instead.

What Hanmi Semiconductor does

Source: AIStockWire

Hanmi Semiconductor builds the machines that stack memory dies into a high bandwidth memory cube. Its thermal compression bonders press the layers together and form the connections between them, a step that decides how many finished stacks come out usable. Every HBM maker has to solve that step, and for years Hanmi was the main supplier of the tool that does it.

That makes Hanmi a pure read on HBM capacity rather than on chip demand. Orders arrive when a memory maker commits to new stacking lines, which happens in bursts rather than evenly, so revenue and the share price both move more sharply than the underlying market. Competition in bonders has increased as the memory makers qualify additional tool vendors and evaluate rival bonding methods, which is the main thing to watch in the name.

Hanmi Semiconductor is run by Kwak Dong-shin (곽동신), Chairman and CEO.

Hanmi Semiconductor has no US listing. Buying the shares means buying the Seoul line, which most US brokerage accounts cannot do directly.

Frequently asked questions

What is Hanmi Semiconductor's stock code?

Hanmi Semiconductor trades on the KOSPI in Seoul under the code 042700. Data providers usually write it as 042700.KS. The company has no US listing, so the Seoul line is the only place the shares trade.

Why is Hanmi Semiconductor an AI stock?

Hanmi Semiconductor builds the machines that stack memory dies into a high bandwidth memory cube. Its thermal compression bonders press the layers together and form the connections between them, a step that decides how many finished stacks come out usable. Every HBM maker has to solve that step, and for years Hanmi was the main supplier of the tool that does it.

What do analysts expect for Hanmi Semiconductor?

7 analysts covering Hanmi Semiconductor have an average price target of ₩268,571 (about $200.07), which is +16.3% against the last close. Coverage of Korean listings is overwhelmingly domestic, so these are Korean brokerage estimates rather than the US sell-side names that cover an American chip stock.

Does Hanmi Semiconductor file with the SEC?

No. Hanmi Semiconductor is a Korean company listed in Seoul, so it reports to the Korea Exchange and the Financial Supervisory Service, not the SEC. That is why this page has no filings, Form 4 insider or congressional trading sections: those are built from EDGAR, which has nothing on a company that does not file there.
