SK Hynix scrapped plans to list its flash memory subsidiary Solidigm in the US, in a deal that sought to raise about US$10 billion and would have valued the company at up to US$100 billion. The South Korean firm cited "recent capital market conditions" and the evolution of its share price in a regulatory filing. The decision followed opposition from South Korean regulators concerned about possible dilution for minority shareholders. SK Hynix shares rose as much as 4.5% after the announcement.
