Nvidia supplier SK Hynix sees limited tariff impact on AI chips after bumper Q1

- The Nvidia supplier reported on Thursday (Apr 24) a 7.4 trillion won (US$5.19 billion) operating profit for the first quarter ended March, versus 2.9 trillion won a year earlier.
- Quarterly revenue for the South Korean firm jumped 42 per cent to 17.6 trillion won.
