SK hynix has resubmitted an amended F-1 registration statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, signaling a decisive advance in its planned initial public offering on the Nasdaq.

The updated filing, disclosed this week, incorporates disclosures regarding potential litigation risks as the South Korean memory chip giant moves closer to listing American depositary receipts (ADRs) in the United States.

According to earlier filings, SK hynix aims to raise approximately $29.

The move represents a significant expansion of the company’s access to global capital markets.

According to earlier filings, SK hynix aims to raise approximately $29.6 billion (45.45 trillion won) through the issuance of 17.79 million new shares.

The offering is expected to be one of the largest technology IPOs in recent years, reflecting the sector’s continued dominance in the AI-driven memory market.

The amended filing follows the company’s initial registration earlier this year, which outlined its strategy to tap U.S. investors amid surging demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips.
