Acquisition of 6,110,544 Shares
Securing an 83.37% Stake
Hansol Technics, a subsidiary of the Hansol Group, has completed the acquisition process of Will Technology, a company specializing in semiconductor inspection components.
On June 17, Hansol Technics announced that it had acquired 6,110,544 shares of Will Technology for KRW 177.2 billion, thereby securing an 83.37% stake and finalizing the process of making it a subsidiary.
Will Technology designs and manufactures 'probe cards,' which are core components used in the inspection process of non-memory system semiconductors. The company stands out in the probe card sector for smartphone main chips (AP) and image sensors (CIS), having secured major clients both in Korea and overseas.
Probe cards are essential components for testing the electrical characteristics and defects of semiconductor chips, and their technological importance continues to grow as semiconductor manufacturing processes become more advanced.
