No, Samsung Electronics is the parent company of Samsung Semiconductor. I guess the consumer facing website is throwing you off. May I suggest Wikipedia to star

No, Samsung Electronics is the parent company of Samsung Semiconductor. I guess the consumer facing website is throwing you off. May I suggest Wikipedia to start instead?

Yeah, no. If that's your source of information, it's hopeless. You need to look at VP org-charts (and maybe know which are highschool friends) to see the power structure. Here's a public list of recent changes: http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20201204000678 http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20201204000678 It doesn't address the key issue that I brought up which is that comparing operating profits of radically different company/conglomerates doesn't make any sense, while (whether it's called SLSI or SamsungSemi, a name I've never heard used in Gumi/Suwan) comparing a subset of SEC (a name which internally only refers to the OEM side) would at least be comparing honeycrisp to grannysmith. SLSI is the internal acronym used to discuss the whole of Samsung Semi whether for historical or political reasons. Certainly, a quick search shows other news sources get this correct. I don't think that naming is really so complicated or controversial to those in the industry. https://www.phonearena.com/news/google-pixel-6-and-pixel-6-pro-specs-software-updates-leak-android-iphone_id133496 https://www.phonearena.com/news/google-pixel-6-and-pixel-6-p...

  I do this for a living man. You are wrong.

    I can't figure out where you're coming from. I hope it's on the finance side, or maybe that's even worse since my point is that the parent's conclusion may correct, but the comparison's gibberish. You've never responded to that. I haven't been to Korea for 18 months, but I've traded those same business cards since 2002. Your confidence seems misplaced.

      Yes the parent financial comparison is of course wrong but I can assure you Samsung’s SLSI, memory, and consumer electronics divisions share a parent company and the name of that company is Samsung electronics
