Hanmi Semiconductor announced on the 29th that Chairman Kwak Dongshin plans to acquire 5 billion won worth of the company’s own shares with his personal funds.

The acquisition is scheduled for November 26 and will take place on the open market. With this purchase, Chairman Kwak Dongshin will have acquired a total of 47.3 billion won worth of the company’s own shares with his personal funds since 2023, and his ownership stake will increase from 33.47% to 33.50%.

Hanmi Semiconductor holds the world’s number one market share in the field of TC Bonder equipment, which is essential for producing high bandwidth memory (HBM), a core component of artificial intelligence (AI) semiconductors. Since 2002, the company has focused on strengthening its intellectual property rights and has continued to expand its technological competitiveness, including filing over 120 patents related to HBM equipment to date. This confidence appears to be the basis for the decision to acquire additional treasury shares.
