Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. experienced a sharp decline in memory chip demand as a result of consumers purchasing fewer electronic devices, which led to a collapse in the company’s quarterly profit.
The South Korean company recently released its fourth-quarter earnings results, which showed that the profit from its semiconductor business fell by an astounding 90%, roughly USD 220 million, for the three months ended December 31. Samsung claimed that the decline was brought on by its largest clients clearing out stockpiles, which means that very few people are currently purchasing new chips.
