[Special Stock] Megatouch Expected to Localize Probe Cards for DRAM... "US Form Factor Secures SK Hynix as Client"

Megatouch is showing strong performance. Expectations for the localization of probe cards for DRAM appear to be influencing the stock price.

As of 10:18 AM on the 3rd, Megatouch was trading at 5,800 KRW, up 400 KRW (7.41%) compared to the previous trading day.

Megatouch is a company that develops, manufactures, and sells test pins for battery charge and discharge (Test Pin), clips (Clip), and test probe pins for semiconductors (Test Probe Pin). The battery business division manufactures pins used in the activation process during battery manufacturing. The semiconductor business division produces pins used in testing processes such as wafer testing and final testing in the post-process stage of the non-memory semiconductor value chain.

As semiconductor components become increasingly miniaturized, Megatouch has secured miniaturization technology. Key plating technology that can improve product quality and electroformed body technology required for manufacturing microfabricated products with an outer diameter of less than 0.3 mm are representative examples.

Last year, Megatouch was selected as a supplier for FormFactor in the United States. In addition, SK Hynix and Samsung SDI are among its major clients.

FormFactor is a provider of test and measurement technologies. It designs, manufactures, and sells various product lines including probe cards, analytical probes, probe stations, measurement systems, thermal systems, cryogenic systems, and related services. After surging more than 17% the previous day, its market capitalization increased to 5.5 trillion KRW. Strong performance in DRAM probe card sales led to the stock price rise.

The largest shareholder of Megatouch is TSE. SK Hynix has completed the final quality testing of DRAM probe cards developed by domestic companies and is preparing to apply them to mass production lines. It is known that Solbrain passed reliability evaluation for HBM probe cards, and TSE passed reliability evaluation for general-purpose DRAM probe cards.
