Samsung forecasts record profit, crediting AI boom for rapid growth

Samsung Electronics expects its profits to triple in the final quarter of 2025, setting a new company record and marking a sharp reversal from recent weaker results. The company links the surge to rising demand driven by artificial intelligence, which is lifting sales across its core businesses.

The forecast underscores how the AI boom is reshaping the outlook for major hardware and component makers, with Samsung positioning itself to benefit from increased needs for advanced chips, memory, and related infrastructure.
