Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 28, 2026, 4:56 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

Samsung Electronics has crossed the $1 billion sales mark for its next-generation AI memory chips, a milestone that took roughly four months from the start of mass production. The company’s high-bandwidth memory (HBM) 4 chips, which began shipping on February 12, 2026, claim performance improvements exceeding 40% over previous standards.
The HBM4 rollout and the AMD deal
Mass production kicked off in February, and by March 18, the company had locked down a memorandum of understanding with AMD to supply HBM4 chips for the Instinct MI455X GPU and EPYC processors.
The partnership targets bandwidths of up to 3.3TB/s, achieved through a 10nm-class manufacturing process.
Samsung and NVIDIA held discussions at the GTC 2026 event focused on HBM4E integration and future HBM5 architecture.

HBM4E: the 12-layer monster
By May 2026, Samsung began shipping samples of its 12-layer HBM4E, which the company describes as an industry first. The chips reach speeds of up to 16Gbps per pin, a specification designed to maximize power efficiency for AI workloads.
What this means for the AI hardware supply chain
The $1 billion sales figure, reached by June 23, 2026, tells a clear story about demand. Samsung’s aggressive timeline, from mass production in February to billion-dollar revenue by June, mirrors the urgency across the entire AI supply chain.
SK Hynix has been the dominant HBM supplier to NVIDIA in recent generations, and Micron has been pushing its own advanced memory solutions. Samsung’s HBM4 launch, and particularly the HBM4E samples, represent a serious attempt to reclaim market share in what has become the most strategically important segment of the memory industry.
