SK hynix Inc. (ISIN US78392B1070) faces a sharp European-market repricing while the average analyst target stands at USD 253.22. MarketBeat reported the consensus figure on October 18, 2026, based on 15 brokerages. SK hynix stock was trading at EUR 822.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 3:38 p.m. CEST, down 5.73 percent versus the Tradegate close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 872.00.
Consensus target stays far higher
The USD 253.22 average target is based on ratings issued during the past year, with two holds, nine buys and four strong buys, according to MarketBeat. On Nasdaq, the stock last traded at USD 139.01 on October 20, 2026 at 9:51 a.m. ET. Its USD 986.8 billion market capitalization and 5.37 price-to-earnings ratio show why the valuation remains central to the debate.
Revenue and earnings remain the counterweight
For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, SK hynix reported USD 51.19 billion in revenue and USD 8.48 in earnings per share, figures carried by MarketBeat. The latest market move therefore sits against a reported quarterly result rather than an unquantified growth story. Seoul Economic Daily reported on October 7, 2026 that IBK expected third-quarter revenue of KRW 95.8 trillion and operating profit of KRW 75.1 trillion, with a projected 78.4 percent operating margin.
Price position and valuation
Nasdaq data put the 52-week range at USD 124.80 to USD 199.87 as of October 20, 2026, leaving the stock 30.45 percent below its high and 11.38 percent above its low. The latest Nasdaq quote carried 4,271,177 shares of volume. The figures frame a stock trading under pressure even as the consensus target remains materially above the current home-market quotation.
Upcoming reporting date
SK hynix has set third-quarter results for October 27, 2026, a date previously carried in the company's investor-relations calendar and cited in recent market coverage. The report will test whether the operating-profit expectations of KRW 75.1 trillion can support the valuation case described by the brokerages.
Stock remains below its recent range
The European quotation remains below the Tradegate close used for the daily comparison, while the USD 124.80 to USD 199.87 Nasdaq range shows the wider distance between the current quote and the yearly high.
