Samsung Electronics\' 57 trillion won earnings clue emerges in Taiwan as memory distributor posts record sales
A clue to Samsung Electronics’ surprise earnings emerged in Taiwan after Supreme Electronics, Samsung’s largest memory chip distributor there, posted record sales. Supreme’s March revenue rose 191 percent year on year to 53.315 billion Taiwan dollars, topping 50 billion for the first time. First-quarter revenue jumped 137 percent to 110.164 billion Taiwan dollars. The surge suggests both higher prices and stronger shipments, aligning with Korean export data showing memory exports up sharply in March.
