CXMT Tops Global Memory Chipmakers With 82% EBIT Margin, Beating Samsung and SK Hynix

ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) posted an 82% EBIT margin in the second quarter of 2026, surpassing SK Hynix’s 76% and Samsung Electronics’ semiconductor business at 70% to become the world’s most profitable memory chipmaker for the period. CXMT’s revenue grew roughly tenfold year on year, the fastest pace among CXMT, Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron, Kioxia and SanDisk.

AI take

CXMT's margin lead over SK Hynix and Samsung is striking less for its absolute level than for the speed at which it was reached, with revenue growth outpacing every major peer. That combination signals a structural shift in memory supply economics, not a cyclical blip, and it matters most for incumbent pricing power and for downstream buyers who have long treated Chinese memory as a marginal source. The open question is whether CXMT can hold that margin as capacity scales and export controls evolve.
