Published on 10/04/2026 at 16:22 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSKolon stock (ISIN KR7002021004) closed at KRW 23,550 on KRX on October 2, 2026, down 2.48 percent from the prior close. The latest operating picture was stronger: in Q2 2026, revenue rose 13.5 percent year over year to KRW 1.71 trillion, according to ATSView.
Q2 profit improved sharply
ATSView reports Q2 2026 operating profit of KRW 99.8 billion, compared with KRW 98.8 billion in Q1 2026. Net income reached KRW 55.4 billion after a KRW 44.7 billion loss in Q1, giving the quarter a clearer earnings recovery profile.
The improvement matters because Kolon's revenue growth came alongside positive net income rather than relying only on higher sales. Q2 operating margin stood at 5.8 percent, below Q1's 6.5 percent, so profitability remains the more important checkpoint than the top line alone.
One analyst sees major upside
