  • My updated NAV analysis of SK Square suggests a target price of 1,378,127 won (42% upside). SK Square’s stake in SK Hynix is 172% of its market cap.

  • Assuming SK Hynix provides 65.2 trillion won in 2026 shareholder returns split equally between dividends and buybacks, each portion would total 32.6 trillion won.

  • SK Square’s shareholder return policy is a bit vague. The company needs to better communicate its shareholder return policy.
