It should be 50%, or even higher.

This is a great development.

But I worry of a future report:

Unfortunately, In 2026 Samsung South Korea is projected to make a significant operating loss due to paying Smaugsun, a newly minted company in Liechtenstein, royalties equal to the revenue from selling the phones. No bonus for you.

Hopefully South Korean laws don't let maneuvering like that fly.

Smaug would approve.

Exactly, they’ll just move money from subsidiaries into other entities and use creative accounting to reduce the payouts. Or in the US just sticking every penny into stock buybacks.
