Two key competitors—Taiwan's TSMC and South Korea's SK Hynix—are making substantial gains, further pressuring Samsung's semiconductor business. TSMC holds approximately 60% of the global semiconductor market and is rapidly advancing its technological capabilities. The company is resolving production bottlenecks related to its advanced chip-on-wafer-on-substrate packaging and is ready to deploy ASML's extreme ultraviolet high-aperture lithography machines.
