Company profile

I'll research this entity before writing the profile.

Let me verify the litigation context.

Samsung Electronics HCMC CE Complex Co., Ltd. (SEHC) is a wholly owned manufacturing subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (KRX: 005930), based in the Saigon Hi-Tech Park in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It received its investment license and broke ground in May 2015, began production in 2016, and marked its 10th anniversary in July 2025. Reported scale: roughly 5,300 employees and 2025 revenue of about US$5.35 billion with profit near US$293 million. It is a limited liability company, not separately listed.

Operations. SEHC is Samsung's consumer-electronics manufacturing and export complex, built on a ~70-hectare site with about US$1.4 billion in initial investment. It produces televisions (including premium, Smart, LED and Micro LED models), refrigerators, washing machines and vacuum cleaners, and has shipped cumulative milestone volumes including 40 million TVs and 30 million vacuum cleaners. Since 2021 it has operated as an export-processing enterprise. In late 2025 it expanded its Vietnamese business registration from 9 to 20 activity lines, adding metal components, electronic components, computer and peripheral manufacturing, and smart home robot production. It also operates a ~28 MWp rooftop solar installation under Vietnam's DPPA mechanism.

Litigation posture. SEHC is an operating company, not an assertion entity. In the tracked data it appears once, as a defendant; it has never appeared as a plaintiff. Its only tracked matter is an import-based patent case at the U.S. International Trade Commission, alongside its Korean and U.S. Samsung affiliates.

Notable case. DivX, LLC v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. et al. — Section 337 complaint filed September 10, 2020, instituted by the ITC on October 13–14, 2020 as Inv. No. 337‑TA‑1222, "Certain Video Processing Devices, Components Thereof, and Digital Smart Televisions." Complainant DivX, LLC (San Diego) is a digital-video technology and licensing company; it asserted U.S. Patent Nos. 8,832,297, 10,212,486, 10,412,141 and 10,484,749 against Samsung, LG, TCL, MediaTek and Realtek, seeking a limited exclusion order and cease-and-desist orders. DivX also filed a concurrent Eastern District of Texas suit against Samsung. The Samsung respondents, including SEHC, were terminated from the investigation in 2021 following settlement; the overall investigation ended in 2022.
