Although U.S. regulators haven’t blocked the IPO, data localization and IP disclosure requirements will inflate compliance overhead. Samsung will likely accelerate HBM4 development and slash NAND prices to constrain SK Hynix’s cash runway, while Broadcom may deepen co-design efforts on chiplet interconnect standards. Within 18 months, SK Hynix will use Nasdaq liquidity to lock in long-term AI customer contracts, transforming HBM from a premium add-on into foundational compute infrastructure—effectively decoupling DRAM from historical cyclicality.
