Samsung's Q1 performance The Samsung Electronics flag waves at the world's largest memory chipmaker's head office in Seoul on April 30, 2024. The tech giant's first-quarter earnings guidance projected an operating profit of 6.6 trillion won (US$4.8 billion), up nearly tenfold on-year. The performance was a shift to a surplus for the first time in five quarters, driven by rebounding prices of DRAMs and rising demand for high-performance memory chips for artificial intelligence.
