The company filed a first amendment to its equity securities registration statement (originally submitted May 15, 2026), voluntarily supplementing risk disclosures with corrections marked in bold blue. Revisions span business risks (downstream cycle, customer concentration, raw material costs, R&D talent retention, IP), company risks (revenue/profitability, financial stability, cash flow, fixed assets, controlling shareholder stake changes from old-share sale and subscription), other risks (regulatory tightening), underwriter opinion, use of proceeds, and director/employee disclosures. Notably, the business-risk section now explicitly addresses the AI semiconductor super-cycle's uneven impact: HBM and advanced packaging benefit, but the company's core DDI bumping and COF packaging businesses sit outside the direct AI tailwind, facing structural headwinds from Chinese panel makers' domestic DDI shift and weak consumer electronics demand. The amendment positions the new Non-DDI bumping/test business (SoC, PMIC, CIS) as the company's pathway to capture AI/automotive system-semiconductor backend outsourcing from global fabless customers. The added disclosure also flags risk that the current AI semiconductor demand surge may be overheating.

Since 2024, the memory semiconductor market has seen rising demand for server DRAM and high-bandwidth memory (HBM) driven by large-scale data processing for AI training and inference. Alongside growth in data center and cloud computing markets, demand for high-performance, high-capacity memory in AI servers and HPC environments is increasing, and a market recovery is emerging. In addition, with rising memory usage across mobile devices, IoT, and automotive electrification, the demand base of the memory semiconductor market is expected to continue expanding.
However, as consumption of high-spec mobile products such as tablets increases, PC production is gradually declining, and the smartphone market has reached saturation and entered a mature phase, which presents persistent negative factors against continuous growth of the memory market. Additionally, since most IT product consumption has seasonal variation by country and region, shipment volumes may decline sharply in particular periods. Large-capacity servers and cloud software, recently spotlighted as next-generation growth engines, are also highly sensitive to the capex plans of the related operators (IDCs, Internet Data Centers). If Samsung Electronics or SK Hynix recalibrate their capex and new investment plans, the Company's performance and operating environment could be negatively affected, and investors should be mindful of this.

Since 2024, the memory semiconductor market has seen rising demand for server DRAM and HBM driven by AI training and inference data processing. With growth in data center and cloud computing markets, demand for high-performance, high-capacity memory in AI servers and HPC environments is increasing, fueling a market recovery. With memory usage rising across mobile devices, IoT, and automotive electrification, the demand base is expected to continue expanding.
As noted above, WSTS forecasts the global semiconductor market in 2026 will grow more than 25% YoY to approximately $975 billion. The key driver of this growth is the explosive spread of Generative AI; HBM's share within the DRAM market continues to expand, rising to more than 30% of total DRAM revenue in 2025 as a core item. AI compute demand grew approximately 40–60% annually in cloud environments during 2024–2025, and the global AI semiconductor market expanded from roughly $18.5B in 2020 to about $43.9B in 2024 — more than doubling — reflecting a structural transition that differs from past semiconductor demand cycles.
However, this surge in AI semiconductor demand is not affecting the broader semiconductor market evenly. Non-AI semiconductor growth is projected to decline in 2026, and the OSAT sector shows a bifurcated structure: traditional packaging and test businesses are sluggish while advanced packaging orders surge from AI accelerator demand. The display-related non-memory backend market, including DDI and COF, sits outside the direct beneficiary range of the AI super-cycle; existing structural weakness continues, driven by Chinese panel makers' shift to domestic DDI and stagnant consumer electronics demand. The Company's DDI bumping and COF packaging businesses compete within this traditional backend market and thus see limited direct benefit from the AI demand surge, whereas the Non-DDI bumping/test business (SoC, PMIC, CIS) being pursued as a new growth area has the potential to capture expanding backend outsourcing of AI and automotive system semiconductors from global fabless customers.
Meanwhile, the current AI semiconductor demand surge raises overheating (Overheat… [Translation truncated]
