SK Hynix is considering a 0.5% underwriting fee for its planned U.S. share sale.

The American Depositary Receipt offering could raise approximately $26.5 billion.

The company intends to sell up to 2.5% of its total shares.

Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan are leading the transaction.

A 0.5% fee would result in a payout exceeding $130 million for the lead banks.

Discussions remain ongoing and may include additional discretionary incentive payments.

The book-building process is scheduled to begin on July 6.

SK Hynix expects to debut on the Nasdaq on July 10 under the ticker SKHY.

The listing seeks to capitalize on investor demand for AI-related stocks to fund expansion.

The 0.5% rate sits below typical U.S. IPO fees but represents a major payday due to the deal's scale.
