Shares of South Korea's Hanmi Semiconductor rose more than 28% after the company
posted Q2 consolidated operating profit of 130.3 bln won, up 51.0% YoY and
roughly 8% above the street consensus of 121.0 bln won. Operating margin reached
51.9%, the first quarterly print above 50% and a company record. Q2 revenue was

the AI semiconductor sector, supporting the rally.
