Hanmi Semiconductor (KR7042700005) committed USD 1.5 million to establish Hanmi USA in San Jose on October 20, 2026. The new unit gives the Korean semiconductor equipment maker a local base for supporting advanced packaging customers in North America.

According to East Asia Brief, Hanmi USA is the company's fourth overseas branch and will coordinate tool deliveries and site acceptance testing. The investment gives the supplier a direct engineering presence as customers build new American packaging capacity.

Three dates and three figures

On October 6, 2026, Hanmi Semiconductor signed a KRW 24.48 billion equipment contract with Samsung Electro-Mechanics. The order represented 4.24 percent of Hanmi Semiconductor's fiscal year 2025 revenue of KRW 576.68 billion, according to East Asia Brief.

On October 20, the company established Hanmi USA with a USD 1.5 million investment. On October 23, 2026, Hanmi Semiconductor closed at KRW 191,000 on the Korea Exchange, giving the expansion story a market value of KRW 18.1 trillion.

What does the U.S. base add?

The San Jose unit changes the company's support model from remote delivery to local field engineering. East Asia Brief reported that Hanmi USA will serve customers across North America and support installation, delivery and acceptance work through 2027.

That timing matters because Hanmi's equipment is used in high-bandwidth memory and advanced packaging production. The company's Samsung order covers substrate saw and inspection tools, while the U.S. office is aimed at supporting memory and packaging customers closer to their fabrication sites.

Contract delivery date

The Samsung Electro-Mechanics contract runs through December 17, 2027. That date is the next substantiated operating milestone for the order and gives the KRW 24.48 billion agreement a delivery horizon beyond the current reporting period.

Market value and business scale

Hanmi Semiconductor is listed on the KRX under ticker 042700.KS, according to Global Banking and Finance Review. The same reference identifies the company as an Information Technology business, while its operating activity centers on semiconductor packaging equipment.

Its 52-week KRX range was KRW 113,400 to KRW 426,000 as of October 23, 2026. The closing level of KRW 191,000 therefore remained within a wide trading band while the company expanded its customer support footprint in the United States.

The company is valued at KRW 18.1 trillion as of October 23, 2026. Hanmi Semiconductor's latest disclosed contract and its U.S. investment now provide two concrete measures of expansion: KRW 24.48 billion in equipment orders and USD 1.5 million committed to local infrastructure.
