Samsung posts record Q3 operating profit of 107.4T won, about $80B, on AI memory demand

Samsung's preliminary filing puts July to September operating profit at 107.4 trillion won ($80.17B), up from 12.17 trillion won a year earlier and above the 106.1 trillion won LSEG estimate. Revenue is about 195 trillion won. Reuters ties the result to AI-driven memory demand and tight DRAM and NAND supply. Detailed results are due Oct. 29.
