SK hynix filed a securities registration statement with South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service and the U.S. SEC on Wednesday to raise up to 45.45 trillion won ($29.43 billion) through an American depositary receipt listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market scheduled for July 10th — and the company said the whole lot would go toward investments in factories and equipment.
The offering covers 17.79 million newly issued common shares and would rank among the largest ADR sales ever completed. SK hynix earmarked the proceeds for its first fab in the Yongin cluster, an advanced packaging plant in Cheongju, and chipmaking equipment that includes EUV scanners.
