SK Hynix Shares Plunge on Report of Potential $100 Billion Solidigm IPO

A report that SK Hynix may pursue an IPO of its NAND subsidiary Solidigm at a valuation of up to $100 billion sent its shares sharply lower, as investors weighed dilution, use of proceeds and NAND strategy concerns. SanDisk and Micron also weakened in premarket trading. The news is a near-term negative, but a successful IPO could unlock Solidigm's value and improve the capital structure over the longer term.
