LS Corp (ISIN KR7006260004) was last at KRW 298,500 on the Korea Exchange KOSPI on October 2, 2026, up 0.17 percent from the prior session. The latest quarterly figures show why the industrial holding company remains closely tied to power infrastructure demand.

Q2 revenue rises 40.3 percent

According to ATS View, LS reported Q2 2026 revenue of KRW 11.0 trillion, an increase of 40.3 percent from the same quarter a year earlier. Operating profit reached KRW 596 billion, with an operating margin of 5.4 percent.

The sequential comparison is also substantial. Finance data show Q2 revenue at KRW 11.023562 trillion versus KRW 9.504447 trillion in Q1, while operating profit increased to KRW 585.123 billion from KRW 475.318 billion. That implies quarter-over-quarter growth of 16.0 percent in revenue and 23.1 percent in operating profit.

Power infrastructure drives the story

LS Corp operates through businesses covering electric power, automation, machinery, materials and energy. Its portfolio includes transmission and distribution equipment, power and telecommunications cables, switchgear, transformers, copper products and industrial automation, according to StockHub.

The balance sheet also shows the scale of the group. At June 30, 2026, total assets stood at KRW 29.864 trillion and total debt at KRW 13.321 trillion. Operating cash flow was negative KRW 747.840 billion in Q2, reflecting the working-capital demands of the business.

Analysts see a wide target gap

The consensus picture is bullish but leaves a wide valuation gap. Investing.com lists a Strong Buy consensus from 8 analysts, with an average 12-month target of KRW 547,750, a high of KRW 630,000 and a low of KRW 400,000. The average target lies 83.5 percent above the October 2 price.

Near-term expectations are specific: Investing.com lists November 18, 2026, as the next earnings date. That checkpoint will show whether the Q2 growth rate can continue while debt and working capital remain important counter-factors.
