Hanul Semiconductor Surges on Highlighted Supply of 'AI and Automotive Core Equipment' Amid Soaring MLCC Demand

As stocks related to multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) are surging thanks to the growth of downstream markets, the share price of Hanul Semiconductor, which possesses core processing equipment technology for MLCCs, is also showing strong performance.

As of 10:57 a.m. on May 26, Hanul Semiconductor was trading at 12,160 won, up 7.61% from the previous day.

On this day, the market is seeing a strong influx of buying across the entire MLCC value chain, driven by the explosive growth in demand for high-performance MLCCs due to the rapid expansion of the artificial intelligence (AI) server, robotics, and automotive electronics markets. Companies such as Samsung Electro-Mechanics and Samwha Capacitor are also rising together, reflecting growing expectations for a full-fledged turnaround in the MLCC industry.

Hanul Semiconductor supplies MLCC precision inspection equipment to major global companies. The company's flagship products are intelligent inspection devices that detect appearance defects and maximize production yield during the manufacturing of electronic components including MLCCs. Currently, Hanul Semiconductor supplies these appearance inspection devices to the key production lines of major global conglomerates, including Company S, proving its unrivaled technological capabilities.

In addition, the company is entering the high value-added market by ramping up the production of 'second-generation mounter equipment,' which is essential for high-performance MLCC manufacturing processes. This high-performance equipment can handle not only the conventional IT-use 1005 specification but also the more technologically challenging 0603 specification required for automotive electronics and AI servers.
