Semiconductors are categorized into memory semiconductors and system semiconductors.
a.
Memory semiconductors
Memory semiconductors, which serve the function of storing and retaining information, are generally categorized as either
volatile or non-volatile. Volatile memory products lose stored information when the power supply is disconnected, whereas non-volatile
products retain stored information even when the power supply is disconnected, similar to how telephone numbers remain saved in a mobile phone. The Company produces DRAM, a volatile memory, and flash memory, a
non-volatile memory. The memory semiconductor industry is one in which securing cost competitiveness through product design technology, process refinement and enhanced investment efficiency are of critical
importance. The industry is progressively becoming an oligopoly dominated by a small number of integrated device manufacturer ( IDM ) companies that possess both technological capabilities and cost competitiveness.
DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory). DRAM is a volatile memory product that retains information only while the power supply is on. It is
primarily used as main memory in computers and as graphics memory for video and 3D gaming applications. With the digitalization of consumer electronics, its use has also expanded to smart TVs, smart refrigerators, printers and other devices.
Furthermore, adoption of premium DRAM products is surging rapidly in response to growing AI demand, and server DRAM demand is also expected to be sustained as investments in data centers continue globally.
Flash Memory. Flash memory is a non-volatile memory product capable of retaining stored data
even when the power supply is disconnected. It is broadly divided into NOR-type (code storage) and NAND-type (data storage). Among these, NAND flash, which the Company produces, is a non-volatile memory chip that supports sequential information access and is well suited for the stable storage of various types of information. NAND flash is used in digital storage devices such as USB drives and
solid state drives ( SSDs ), as well as in automotive navigation systems, digital cameras, smartphones, tablet personal computers ( PCs ) and other mobile devices, and in data centers. Meanwhile, demand for flash memory has
recently been shifting from general-purpose memory towards more customer-oriented products, and accordingly, the importance of proactive application product development and product collaboration with customers that align with this trend has been
growing.
b.
System semiconductors
System semiconductors are semiconductors manufactured for the purpose of information processing. They are classified by their characteristics
into analog, logic, micro, discrete and sensor categories. Among these, the Company previously produced CIS. In March 2025, the Company decided to transition its CIS business division to the AI memory sector.
(2)
Growth potential
The semiconductor industry is responding to rapid market changes through technological innovation and has established itself as a core element
not only in electronic products used in daily life but also in advanced new industry sectors such as AI, Internet-of-Things ( IoT ), autonomous driving and
biotechnology. Accordingly, the scope of semiconductor applications is expanding across diverse industry sectors, and sustained market growth is expected in tandem with the advancement of new technologies.
In 2022, market conditions deteriorated from the second half of the year due to geopolitical crises, global supply chain issues, and concerns
over an economic recession triggered by global interest rate hikes, resulting in the semiconductor market recording growth of only 1.1%, while the memory semicondutor market contracted by 13.7%. In 2023, semiconductor exports experienced an
unprecedented downturn as internal and external uncertainties persisted, including global supply chain instability and a slowdown in global economic growth. The semiconductor market in 2023 exhibited negative growth, with the overall semiconductor
market declining by 11.7% and the memory market declining by 35.8%, attributable to decreased demand for IT products such as PCs and mobile devices and falling prices amid elevated industry memory inventory levels. In 2024, demand for electronic
products, which had been sluggish, recovered, and the AI market began to flourish in earnest, with demand expanding primarily for high-performance and high-capacity memory, resulting in growth of 21.0% for the semiconductor market and 73.4% for the
memory semicondutor market. In 2025, the semiconductor industry recovery trend that had begun in earnest the previous year continued, with strong growth driven primarily by increased demand from the expansion of
AI-based infrastructure, as the semiconductor market recorded growth of 23.0% and the memory semicondutor market recorded growth of 37.8%. In 2026, the expansion of AI infrastructure investment and the
increase in data center demand are expected to continue, sustaining the growth trajectory of the semiconductor market, and the memory semicondutor market is expected to maintain a solid growth trend centered on the expansion of demand for
high-value-added products such as high-bandwidth memory ( HBM ) and DDR5. (Source: Gartner, June 2026)
13
DRAM. According to market research firm Gartner (Source: Gartner, June 2026), in
2022, the market recorded negative growth at US$78.7 billion (or -15.4%) due to declining demand caused by reduced mobile demand resulting from China s lockdowns, weakened server demand driven by inventory corrections at server companies,
and saturation of the PC market. In 2023, with industry memory inventory levels elevated amid global supply chain instability caused by trade conflicts and armed conflict, as well as a contraction in the global economy and consumer sentiment, IT
product demand declined sharply. Despite the expansion of premium product sales such as HBM driven by surging AI demand, the market continued its negative growth trajectory, recording US$49.9 billion (or -36.5%). In 2024, demand that had been
depressed, primarily in the general server segment, recovered, and HBM grew on the back of expanding AI demand, resulting in a significant rebound to US$91.6 billion (or +82.7%). In 2025, demand increased substantially, centred on HBM, a high
performance, high capacity memory, driven by the advancement of generative AI services and the commercialization of on-device AI, with the market continuing its growth trajectory to reach US$146.9 billion (or +60.0%). In 2026, amid the
continued expansion of demand for high performance memory centered on AI servers and data centers, growth is expected to continue, driven by the increase in demand for high value-added products centered on HBM and DDR5.
NAND Flash. According to market research firm Gartner (Source: Gartner, June 2026), in 2022, the market recorded negative growth at
US$57.9 billion (or -12.4%) as demand across all application products weakened due to deteriorating macroeconomic conditions and declining IT product demand. In 2023, with heightened domestic and external uncertainties and continued demand
weakness across all application products, the market sustained its negative growth trajectory, recording US$37.1 billion (or -35.9%). In 2024, market conditions improved as a result of supply constraints and demand recovery, and the adoption of
enterprise SSD ( eSSD ), which has advantages such as low power consumption, expanded in connection with the growing AI market. NAND demand increased accordingly, recording growth of US$63.4 billion (or +71.0%), demonstrating that
the benefits of AI were spreading from DRAM to NAND. In 2025, demand expanded centered on industry supply adjustments and enterprise SSDs required for AI-oriented data centers, with the market showing improvement at US$68.1 billion (or +7.0%).
In 2026, eSSD demand is expected to maintain a solid growth trend due to the increase in data center storage demand driven by the expansion of AI infrastructure investment, and the expansion of demand centered on high performance and high capacity
products is expected to drive market growth.
(3)
Business cycle fluctuations
The global semiconductor market has short product life cycles and possesses the characteristics of a capital intensive industry that requires
large-scale investment for the production of new products. The semiconductor industry has experienced repeated cycles of boom and bust due to price and supply stability fluctuations caused by supply and demand imbalances, as it is difficult to
adjust supply volume in a short period of time. This has been closely correlated with the macroeconomic business cycle of the United States and Europe, which comprise the major demand markets. Recently, as areas of AI application have diversified,
demand for new technologies has been increasing, and as the market expands, demand volatility has been rising due to changes in market conditions such as geopolitical risks and deterioration of macroeconomic conditions.
DRAM. DRAM has been growing primarily around mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs and servers, and as demand sources have
diversified into AI, data centers, automobiles and other areas, business cycle volatility has shown signs of reduction compared to the past. Meanwhile, with respect to demand seasonality, although second half demand increases driven by the
back-to-school season and the Christmas season in the United States and Europe had historically been pronounced, diversification of sales markets resulting from the growth of Asian markets and the dispersion of launch timings of new smartphones has
led to a partial weakening of such traditional demand seasonality in recent periods. Demand for PCs also experienced a temporary surge as remote working and video conferencing practices became established following the
COVID-19 pandemic. Servers have demonstrated steady demand despite minor fluctuations in accordance with global market conditions, supported by continued investment and growth. Recently, with the growth of the
AI market, demand for HBM, a high performance semiconductor capable of executing deep learning and handling high quality data, has surged. The continued growth of the IT product and services market driven by the proliferation of generative AI is
expected to have a positive impact on DRAM demand.
14
NAND Flash. NAND flash has experienced rapid growth in the past, driven by increasing
demand for MP3 players, memory cards and similar products. Recently, as IT devices have become smarter and higher in performance, the major applications for NAND flash have shifted to embedded multi-media card ( eMMC ), universal flash
storage ( UFS ), and SSDs, in which a controller and raw NAND are combined, resulting in higher added value. In addition, these eMMC and SSD products, similar to DRAM, have begun to be installed in a wide variety of products including
smartphones, tablet PCs, notebooks, PCs, servers, storage and flash arrays, and business cycle volatility is expected to decrease compared to the past. The mobile product market, including smartphones, has reached a state of saturation. However, the
need for high performance and high capacity NAND is increasing due to the expansion of on-device AI adoption, and the high capacity eSSD product market is expanding due to the spillover effects of AI.
(4)
Competitive elements
The core competitiveness of the semiconductor business consists of (1) technology and cost competitiveness, (2) market responsiveness
(customer acquisition, product portfolio) and (3) capital investment capability, among others.
Recently, as application areas have
gradually become more diversified and converged away from standard products that are conducive to mass production, the paradigm of competition has been rapidly shifting from a cost competitiveness focus driven by facility investment and productivity
improvement to a profitability focus driven by enhancing product value. In the past, expansion of production capacity and reduction of production costs through aggressive investment were the core competitive factors. However, the business
environment has changed recently due to increased difficulty in achieving further process refinement and growing uncertainty of return on investment. Accordingly, going forward, achieving investment reduction through the advancement of production
technology, as well as the development of various preceding technologies and application technologies and the development of converged application products that combine memory controllers and firmware to enhance the added value of products, will
become important sources of business competitiveness. In addition, as securing through-silicon via ( TSV ) technology competitiveness in the DRAM sector, smooth early market entry for new memory products, collaboration with related
technology companies for the expansion of the eMMC and SSD product markets, and customer satisfaction have all become increasingly important, marketing and customer support activities have also emerged as core competitive factors.
In addition, the ability to respond to the market by launching products that meet market demands in a timely manner and the securing of
financial soundness are also becoming necessary.

Suppliers of Major Raw Materials and the Stability of the Raw Material Supply Market
The Company procures finished 300mm wafer products from major suppliers in the industry that possess production facilities in Japan,
Korea, Germany, the United States and other countries.
Wafer prices are influenced by supply and demand trends in the global semiconductor industry. The
Company plans to continue to strengthen its cost competitiveness through medium-to-long term cooperative relationships with major suppliers and also closely monitor market conditions while keeping in mind at all times external uncertainties
including those arising from rapid increases in demand.
In the case of substrates, the Company procures finished substrate products from nine companies
that possess production facilities in Korea, Japan and China. On a worldwide basis, there are more than approximately 50 substrate suppliers, and the nine companies with which the Company transacts are suppliers that satisfy the levels required by
the Company in terms of quality and supply capacity.
Substrate prices are influenced by supply and demand trends in the global semiconductor industry. In
particular, substrates are multi variety products to which individual designs are applied on a customized basis depending on the type, density and other specifications of the semiconductors produced by the Company. In line with the trend toward
thinner, lighter, shorter and smaller packages, the difficulty of substrate fabrication is also on an increasing trend. The Company will strengthen the competitiveness of its supply chain and maintain a healthy cooperative relationship through
continuous quality improvement and diversification activities with its substrate suppliers.
PCBs are procured from six companies located in Korea and the
Greater China region, including China and Taiwan. The PCB suppliers with which the Company transacts are major suppliers within the industry and satisfy the various requirement levels of the Company as well as other industry players in terms of
quality and capacity, among other factors.
19
PCB prices are not only influenced by the supply and demand of final semiconductor products but are also
affected by the transaction prices of major raw materials due to the product characteristic of having a high proportion of raw material content. Recently, the price volatility level of raw materials for PCB has been elevated due to economic
uncertainty, and there has been volatility in procurement costs in line with the trend toward high reliability, high speed and high capacity requirements for the latest new products. However, the Company is simultaneously enhancing its PCB cost
competitiveness and improving quality and production stability through preemptive activities such as production site diversification, product design optimization, quality improvement and inventory adjustment. In addition, diversification of
production regions to Southeast Asia is underway in order to respond to uncertain supply conditions.

2. Dividends and Others
A.
Dividend Policy
In November 2024, the Board of Directors approved a new shareholder return policy applicable from 2025 through 2027, which has been designed by the Company to
pursue a balanced approach between strengthening financial soundness and enhancing shareholder returns, as set forth below.
The Company expects to pay a
fixed dividend of Won 1,500 per share per annum (distributed in four equal quarterly installments).
The Company s previous shareholder return
policy had allocated 5% of annual free cash flow to shareholder returns. However, such funds will be prioritized for strengthening financial soundness under the current policy, but the Company expects to provide additional shareholder to the extent
its financial soundness is maintained. In addition, the Company plans to consider making early partial shareholder returns if it experiences strong operating results that is expected to generate a meaningful level of free cash flow.
Applicable financial soundness criteria include conversion to a net cash inflow position and maintenance of an appropriate level of cash reserves.

SARs (Stock Appreciation Rights)
a.
Officers and employees
Since 2023, the Company has been granting SARs to certain of its officers and employees. Each SAR corresponds to a virtual number of shares, with the cash
difference between the grant price and the market price payable one year from the grant date. The rights are subject to a service-based vesting condition requiring the participant to be in active employment at the time of payout. SARs are scheduled
to be settled in two separate installments.

b.
Directors
SARs based on total shareholder return ( TSR ) were granted to directors in 2022. A certain number of virtual shares corresponding to a fixed
percentage of each grantee s annual salary are granted. If the stock price (weighted average) as of the exercise notice date during the exercise period, together with dividends, exceeds the stock price at the time of grant, the Company
delivers common shares in an amount equal to the product of the TSR appreciation, reflecting relative performance compared to peer companies, and the number of granted shares.
The SARs become exercisable for a four-year period beginning three years after the grant date, and remain valid only if the grantee satisfies a minimum
service period of two years from the grant date. In addition, in the event of a bonus issue, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or similar corporate action, the number of granted shares is adjusted by applying the relevant adjustment
ratio.

PSU (Performance Shared Unit)
Since 2023, pursuant to applicable resolutions of the Human Resources and Compensation Committee, the Company has been granting PSUs to certain of its officers
and employees. Each year, the Company grants a number of PSUs corresponding to a fixed percentage of the grantee s annual salary, with grantees able to elect either an annual or quarterly grant calculation cycle. After a three-year vesting
period, the PSUs settle in cash or common shares based on the achievement of performance targets tied to the Company s absolute share price appreciation, as adjusted for its relative share price performance against the KOSPI 200 Index. In the
case of exceptional performance, grantees may receive additional shares of up to 100% of the number of shares initially subject to the PSU award. If the grantee s employment with the Company s is terminated within two years of
January 1 of the year the PSUs were granted, the PSUs are forfeited. The number of shares granted is subject to adjustments in cases of certain events including capital increases, stock splits, reverse stock splits and distribution of stock
dividends.

Independent Auditors Review Report
Based on a report originally issued in Korean
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
SK hynix Inc.
Reviewed Financial Statements
We have
reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of SK hynix Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the Group ), which comprise the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial
position as of June 30, 2026, the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the condensed consolidated
interim statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory
information.
Management s Responsibility for the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with Korean
International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements that
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our reviews.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Security
and Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists principally of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other
review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that
might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements do
not present fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting.
1
Other Matters
The consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this review report, were audited by us in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing, and our report thereon, dated March 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified
opinion. The accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2025, presented for comparative purposes, is not different from that audited by us from which it was derived in all material respects.
The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed consolidated interim financial statements may differ from those
generally accepted and applied in other countries.

(c) Amendments to Korean IFRS 1109 Financial Instruments and Korean IFRS 1107 Financial Instruments:
Disclosures Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity
Contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity are defined contracts that
expose an entity to variability in the underlying amount of electricity because the source of electricity generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions (for example, the weather). The amendments clarify that contracts to buy or sell
such electricity are assessed for eligibility under the own-use exemption.
In addition, the amendments
modify hedge accounting requirements by allowing an entity to designate as the hedged item a variable nominal amount of forecast electricity transactions that reflect the nature-dependent variability of electricity and introduce additional
disclosure requirements. The amendments do not have a significant impact on the consolidated interim financial statements.
2.1.2
New and amended standards or interpretations not yet adopted by the Group
The following new accounting standards and interpretations have been published and are not mandatory for June 30, 2026 reporting periods and have not been
early adopted by the Group.
(a) New Standard: Korean IFRS 1118 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
Korean IFRS 1118 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements replaces Korean IFRS 1001 Presentation of Financial Statements and includes new
requirements aimed at enhancing comparability of financial performance between similar entities and providing more relevant information to users. While the amendments do not affect the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements,
they are expected to have an extensive impact on presentation and disclosure, including the income statement and the disclosure of management-defined performance measures.
The standard should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and earlier application is permitted. In accordance with the
retrospective application requirements, comparative information for all comparative periods presented shall be restated under Korean IFRS 1118.
Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of applying the new standard on the Group s consolidated financial statements. Based on a
preliminary assessment, the following potential effects have been identified.

2.1.2
New and amended standards or interpretations not yet adopted by the Group, Continued
Adoption of the standard is not expected to have an impact on the Group s net profit or loss; however,
it will require revenues and expenses in the income statements to be classified into new categories, which is expected to have an impact on the calculation and presentation of operating profit (loss). Based on a preliminary impact assessment
conducted by the Group, the following items have been identified as potentially affecting operating profit (loss).
Exchange differences currently presented in Finance Income and Finance Expenses outside of
operating profit may need to be presented separately in the new categories, and certain foreign exchange gains and losses may be presented in operating profit (loss).
The standard specifies detailed requirements for the categorization of gains and losses on derivative
instruments. Such gains and losses should be presented in the same category as the income and expenses affected by the risks the derivative instruments are used to mitigate. Currently, the Group presents these gains and losses within finance income
and expenses. Consequently, there may be changes to the classification of these items in the income statement.
Applying the concept of
a useful structured summary and the enhanced principles of aggregation and disaggregation may result in changes to the line items presented in the primary financial statements. In addition, goodwill must be presented separately on the
statement of financial position; therefore, the Group will present goodwill and other intangible assets as separate line items.
The requirements for
disclosing material information remain unchanged; therefore, the Group does not expect significant changes to the information currently disclosed in the Notes. However, as a result of the principles of aggregation and disaggregation, the way
information is grouped may change. In addition, significant new disclosures will be required for the following matters.
Management-defined performance measure
A breakdown of line items classified by function within the operating category of the income statement into their
nature (required only for specified nature expenses)
Reconciliation of differences for each line item in the income statement between the amounts previously presented
under Korean IFRS 1001 and the restated amounts by applying Korean IFRS 1118 for the comparative period immediately preceding the period in which this standard is first applied.
There is a change in the presentation of interest received and interest paid in the statement of cash flows. Interest paid will be presented as cash flows
from financing activities, and interest received as cash flows from investing activities, resulting in a change from the current presentation of cash flows from operating activities.

2.2
Accounting Policies
Material accounting policies and method of computation used in the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those of
the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the changes due to the application of amendments and enactments of standards described in Note 2.1.1 and as described below.
2.2.1
Income tax expense
Income tax expense for the interim period is recognized based on management s best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for
the full financial year. The estimated average annual effective income tax rate is applied to the pre-tax income for the interim period.
The Group is subject to the Global Minimum Tax (Pillar Two). The Group has not recognized additional income tax expenses in relation to Pillar Two during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 and applied the exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.
3.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The estimates and assumptions are continuously assessed, considering historical experience and
other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These resulting accounting estimates may differ from the actual results.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in
the preparation of the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the estimates used to determine the income tax expense.

Financial Risk Management
(1)
Financial risk management
The Group s activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk),
credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the financial risk management policies and disclosures that are required in the consolidated annual financial statements; therefore, see the
consolidated annual financial statements for full disclosure. There were no significant changes in risk management department and risk management policies subsequent to December 31, 2025.
(a)
Market risk
(i)
Foreign exchange risk
The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the US dollar,
Euro, Chinese yuan and Japanese yen. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities in foreign currencies, and net investments in foreign operations.
Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2026 are as follows:
(In millions of Korean won and millions of foreign currencies)

Also, as described in Note 18, the Group entered into a currency interest rate swap contract to hedge interest rate risk and
currency risk of foreign currency denominated bonds and borrowings.
When the exchange rate of the functional currency for each foreign currency
fluctuates by 10% as of June 30, 2026, the impact of the change in the exchange rate on profit before income tax expenses are as follows:

(ii)
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk of the Group is defined as the risk that the interest expenses arising from borrowings will fluctuate due to changes in future market
interest rate. The interest rate risk mainly arises through floating rate borrowings, and is partially offset by interests received from floating rate financial assets.
The Group is managing cash flow interest rate risk using floating-to-fixed
cross currency interest rate swaps. These interest rate swaps have an economic effect of converting floating interest borrowings into fixed interest borrowings. Generally, the Group borrows at a floating interest rate and then swaps at a fixed rate.
Under the swap agreement, the Group will settle the difference between fixed interest costs and the floating interest costs calculated according to the principal agreed upon for each counterparty and specific period (mainly quarterly).
The Group is partially exposed to the risk of changing net interest costs due to changes in interest rates as of June 30, 2026. The Group has signed a
currency interest rate swap contract on floating interest rate borrowings in foreign currency amount to W117,925 million and an interest rate swap contract on floating interest rate borrowings in local currency
of W286,000 million. Therefore, the changes in interest costs subject to fluctuation of interest rates do not have an impact on the profit before income tax for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2025, if interest rates on borrowings and
financial assets had been 100 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, profit before income tax would have been W19,855 million (2025: W24,348 million)
lower/higher over the next year, mainly as a result of higher/lower net interest costs on floating-rate borrowings and interest income on floating-rate financial assets.
(iii)
Price risk
The Group invests in equity and debt securities resulted from its business needs and the purpose of liquidity management. The Group s equity and debt
securities are exposed to price risk as of June 30, 2026.
(b)
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and
arises mainly from operating and investing activities. In order to manage credit risk, the Group periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer or counterparty through the analysis of its financial information, historical transaction
records and other factors, based on which the Group establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.

Credit risk, Continued
(i)
Trade and other receivables
For each new customer, the Group individually analyzes its credit worthiness before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. In
addition, the Group is continuously managing trade and other receivables by reevaluating the customer s credit worthiness and securing collaterals in order to limit its credit risk exposure.
The Group reviews at the end of each reporting period whether trade and other receivables are impaired and maintains credit insurance policies to manage
credit risk exposure from oversea customers. The extent of the Group s exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2026 is equal to the carrying amount of trade and other receivables.
(ii)
Other financial assets
Credit risk also arises from other financial assets such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term financial instruments, short-term and long-term investment
assets, and short-term and long-term loans mainly due to the bankruptcy of each counterparty to those financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2026 is the carrying amount of those financial assets. The Group deposits
cash and cash equivalents, short-term financial instruments and others in several financial institutions, and transacts only with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings. Accordingly, management does not expect any significant loss
from non-performance by the counterparties.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Group is unable to meet its short-term payment obligations on time due to deterioration of its business
performance or inability to access financing. The Group forecasts its cash flow and liquidity status and sets action plans on a regular basis to manage liquidity risk proactively.
The Group invests surplus cash in interest-bearing current accounts, time deposits, and demand deposits choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or
sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts.

Capital management
The Group s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for
shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or
adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends to shareholders, procure and repay borrowings, issue new shares, and sell assets.

Fair value
Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity can
access at the measurement date.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable
inputs)

Acquisition of the Intel NAND business
In the process of obtaining a conditional business combination approval for the Intel NAND business acquisition from the Chinese competition authority (Chinese
State Administration for Market Regulation) in connection with the first closing of the Intel NAND business completed during the year ended December 31, 2021, the Group was imposed with certain conditions, mainly including the obligation to
maintain a reasonable pricing policy, increase production and to support the entry of third-party competitors into the Chinese eSSD market. These obligations apply for a five-year period from December 2021. After the end of this period, the Group
may apply for a waiver of the conditions, and the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation will determine whether to approve the waiver based on the competitive landscape of the Chinese eSSD market at that time.
(8) The Group entered into supplier finance arrangements. In accordance with the arrangements, when the finance providers pay the payables related to the
Group s trade and other payables to the suppliers, the Group pays the finance providers on the payment due date. In order for the finance providers pay the receivable, the Group had to have received the goods or services and approved the
invoices.
If suppliers choose early collection of payment, the finance providers pay the amount before the payment due date. The Group settles the trade
and other payables with the finance providers on the payment due date. All trade and other payables subject to the supplier finance arrangements are included in trade and other payables in the Group s consolidated statement of financial
position. As of June 30, 2026, the amount paid to suppliers under the supplier finance arrangements is W736,236 million. Meanwhile, the amount of the Group s trade and other payables related to
supplier finance arrangements does not have a significant effect on non-cash transactions of cash and cash equivalents.

Independent Auditors Review Report
Based on a report originally issued in Korean
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
SK hynix Inc.
Reviewed Financial Statements
We have
reviewed the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements of SK hynix Inc. (the Company ), which comprise the condensed separate interim statement of financial position as of June 30, 2026, the condensed separate
interim statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the condensed separate interim statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the
six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and notes comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information.
Management s Responsibility for the Condensed Separate Interim Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these condensed separate interim financial statements in accordance with Korean
International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting, and for such internal controls as management determines necessary to enable the preparation of condensed separate interim financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors Responsibility
Our responsibility is to issue a report on these condensed separate interim financial statements based on our reviews.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the Review Standards for Quarterly and Semiannual Financial Statements established by the Security and
Futures Commission of the Republic of Korea. A review of interim financial information consists principally of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be
identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed separate interim financial statements do not
present fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with Korean International Financial Reporting Standards No. 1034, Interim Financial Reporting.
1
Other Matters
The separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the related separate statements of comprehensive income, changes
in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, which are not accompanying this review report, were audited by us in accordance with Korean Standards on Auditing, and our report thereon, dated March 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion. The
accompanying separate statement of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, presented for comparative purposes, is not different from that audited by us from which it was derived in all material respects.
The procedures and practices utilized in the Republic of Korea to review such condensed separate interim financial statements may differ from those generally
accepted and applied in other countries.

an entity to variability in the underlying amount of electricity because the source of electricity generation depends on uncontrollable natural conditions (for example, the weather). The amendments clarify that contracts to buy or sell such
electricity are assessed for eligibility under the own-use exemption.
In addition, the amendments modify
hedge accounting requirements by allowing an entity to designate as the hedged item a variable nominal amount of forecast electricity transactions that reflect the nature-dependent variability of electricity and introduce additional disclosure
requirements. The amendments do not have a significant impact on the separate interim financial statements.
2.1.2
New and amended standards or interpretations not yet adopted by the Company
The following new accounting standards and interpretations that have been published and are not mandatory for June 30, 2026 reporting periods and have not
been early adopted by the Company.
(a) New Standard: Korean IFRS 1118 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
Korean IFRS 1118 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements replaces Korean IFRS 1001 Presentation of Financial Statements and includes new
requirements aimed at enhancing comparability of financial performance between similar entities and providing more relevant information to users. While the amendments do not affect the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements,
they are expected to have an extensive impact on presentation and disclosure, including the income statement and the disclosure of management-defined performance measures.
The standard should be applied for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and earlier application is permitted. In accordance with the
retrospective application requirements, comparative information for the year ended December 31, 2026, shall be restated under Korean IFRS 1118.
Management is in review for the impact of applying the new standard on the Company s financial statements. Based on a preliminary assessment, the
following potential effects have been identified.

2.1.2
New and amended standards or interpretations not yet adopted by the Company, Continued
Adoption of the standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company s net profit or loss;
however, it will require revenues and expenses in the income statements to be classified into new categories, which is expected to have an impact on the calculation and presentation of operating profit (loss). According to the overall impact
assessment conducted by the Company, the following items have been identified as potentially affecting operating profit (loss).
Exchange differences currently aggregated in Finance Income and Finance Expenses in non-operating profit may need to be presented separately in the new categories, and certain foreign exchange gains and losses may be presented under operating profit (loss).
The standard specifies detailed requirements for the categorization of gains and losses on derivative
instruments. Such gains and losses should be presented in the same category as the income and expenses affected by the risks the derivative instruments are used to mitigate. Currently, the Company presents these gains and losses within finance
income and expenses. Consequently, there may be changes to the location of these items in the income statement.
Applying the concept of
a useful structured summary and the enhanced principles of aggregation and disaggregation may result in changes to the line items presented in the primary financial statements. In addition, goodwill must be presented separately on the
statement of financial position; therefore, the Company will present goodwill and other intangible assets as separate line items.
The requirements for
disclosing material information remain unchanged; therefore, the Company does not expect significant changes to the information currently disclosed in the Notes. However, as a result of the principles of aggregation and disaggregation, the way
information is grouped may change. In addition, significant new disclosures will be required for the following matters.
Management-defined performance measure
A breakdown of line items classified by function within the operating category of the income statement into their
nature (required only for specified nature expenses)
Reconciliation of differences for each line item in the income statement between the amounts previously presented
under Korean IFRS 1001 and the restated amounts by applying Korean IFRS 1118 for the comparative period immediately preceding the period in which this standard is first applied.
There is a change in the presentation of interest received and interest paid in the statement of cash flows. Interest paid will be presented as cash flows
from financing activities, and interest received as cash flows from investing activities, resulting in a change from the current presentation of cash flows from operating activities.

2.2
Accounting Policies
Material accounting policies and method of computation used in the preparation of the separate interim financial statements are consistent with those of the
separate annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the changes due to the application of amendments and enactments of standards described in Note 2.1.1 and as described below.
2.2.1
Income tax expense
Income tax expense for the interim period is recognized based on management s best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for
the full financial year. The estimated average annual effective income tax rate is applied to the pre-tax income for the interim period.
The Company is subject to the Global Minimum Tax (Pillar Two). The Company has not recognized additional income tax expenses in relation to Pillar Two during
the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 and applied the exception to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.
3.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The estimates and assumptions are continuously assessed, considering historical experience
and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These resulting accounting estimates may differ from the actual results.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these separate interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the
preparation of the separate annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the estimates used to determine the income tax expense.

Financial Risk Management
(1)
Financial risk management
The Company s activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk),
credit risk and liquidity risk. The separate interim financial statements do not include all the financial risk management policies and disclosures that are required in the separate annual financial statements; therefore, see the separate annual
financial statements for full disclosure. There were no significant changes in risk management department and risk management policies subsequent to December 31, 2025.
(a)
Market risk
(i)
Foreign exchange risk
The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the US dollar,
Euro, Chinese Yuan and Japanese Yen. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities in foreign currencies.
Monetary foreign currency assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2026 are as follows:

Market risk, Continued
(ii)
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk of the Company is defined as the risk that the interest expenses arising from borrowings will fluctuate due to changes in future market
interest rate. The interest rate risk mainly arises through floating rate borrowings and is partially offset by interests received from floating rate financial assets.
The Company is managing cash flow interest rate risk using floating-to-fixed
cross currency interest rate swaps. These interest rate swaps have an economic effect of converting floating interest borrowings into fixed interest borrowings. Generally, the Company borrows at a floating interest rate and then swaps at a fixed
rate. Under the swap agreement, the Company will settle the difference between fixed interest costs and the floating interest costs calculated according to the principal agreed upon for each counterparty and specific period (mainly quarterly).
The Company is partially exposed to the risk of changing net interest costs due to changes in interest rates as of June 30, 2026. The Company has signed
a currency interest rate swap contract on floating interest rate borrowings in foreign currency amount to W96,344 million and an interest rate swap contract on floating interest rate borrowings in local
currency of W286,000 million. Therefore, the changes in interest costs subject to fluctuation of interest rates do not have an impact on the profit before income tax for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2026.
As of June 30, 2026, if interest rates on borrowings and
financial assets had been 100 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, profit before income tax would have been W20,893 million (2025: W 24,836
million) lower/higher over the next year, mainly as a result of higher/lower net interest costs on floating-rate borrowings and interest income on floating-rate financial assets.
(iii)
Price risk
The Company invests in equity and debt securities resulted from its business needs and the purpose of liquidity management. The Company s equity and debt
securities are exposed to price risk as of June 30, 2026.
(b)
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and
arises mainly from operating and investing activities. In order to manage credit risk, the Company periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer or counterparty through the analysis of its financial information, historical transaction
records and other factors, based on which the Company establishes credit limits for each customer or counterparty.
(i)
Trade and other receivables
For each new customer, the Company individually analyzes its credit worthiness before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. In
addition, the Company is continuously managing trade and other receivables by reevaluating the customer s credit worthiness and securing collaterals in order to limit its credit risk exposure.
The Company reviews at the end of each reporting period whether trade and other receivables are impaired and enters into credit insurance contracts to manage
credit risk exposure from oversea customers. The extent of the Company s exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2026 is equal to the carrying amount of trade and other receivables.

(ii)
Other financial assets
Credit risk also arises from other financial assets such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term financial instruments, short-term investment assets, and
short-term and long-term loans mainly due to the bankruptcy of each counterparty to those financial assets. The maximum exposure to credit risk as of June 30, 2026 is the carrying amount of those financial assets. The Company deposits cash and
cash equivalents, short-term financial instruments and others in several financial institutions, and transacts only with banks and financial institutions with high credit ratings. Accordingly, management does not expect any significant loss from non-performance by the counterparties.
(c)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company is unable to meet its short-term payment obligations on time due to deterioration of its business
performance or inability to access financing. The Company forecasts its cash flow and liquidity status and sets action plans on a regular basis to manage liquidity risk proactively.
The Company invests surplus cash in interest-bearing current accounts, time deposits and demand deposits choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or
sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts.
(2)
Capital management
The Company s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns
for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or
adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends to shareholders, procure and repay borrowings, issue new shares, and sell assets.
The debt-to-equity ratio and net borrowing ratio as of June 30, 2026 and

Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity can
access at the measurement date.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable
inputs)
