SK Hynix to Complete 40% Buyback of 24.07M Shares by Oct 19

SK Hynix plans to complete the buyback of 24.07 million shares, about 40% of the total, by October 19. Buybacks typically reduce the share count, lift EPS and signal that management views the stock as undervalued, offering short-term support to the share price. However, the buyback itself does not change memory industry fundamentals, so the medium- to long-term impact is neutral.
