Samsung sold 1.58 million shares or 0.4 per cent of ASML. It had already sold around 1.17 million of its shares in ASML in the third quarter of last year.

Despite Samsung selling its shares, both companies will continue to collaborate.

When South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol visited the Netherlands last year, ASML and Samsung signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly invest around 1 trillion won ($749.56 million) in a Korean research facility.
