iM Financial (KR7139130009) had a KRW 25,000 target set by Hanwha Investment & Securities in a new report dated October 7, 2026, according to NewsPim. The report projected third-quarter attributable net income of KRW 144.8 billion, up 18 percent from a year earlier and 3 percent from the prior quarter, while remaining 6 percent below consensus. iM Financial's market capitalization was KRW 2.7 trillion as of October 14, 2026.
Three earnings signals in order
On October 30, 2025, Investing.com listed September-quarter earnings per share of KRW 726.67 and revenue of KRW 505.0 billion. On August 14, 2026, the same earnings page listed second-quarter earnings per share of KRW 839.55 against a KRW 909.32 forecast, while revenue reached KRW 559.0 billion against a KRW 553.62 billion forecast.
The October 7 report therefore put the next quarter between improving profit momentum and a margin constraint. Hanwha expected quarterly net interest margin to decline by 4 basis points quarter over quarter, while total won-denominated loans were projected to grow 2 percent.
What does the earnings view imply?
ATS View reports second-quarter operating profit of KRW 182.7 billion and net income of KRW 144.8 billion for 2026. The comparison with first-quarter operating profit of KRW 193.9 billion shows a sequential decline of 5.78 percent, while second-quarter net income of KRW 144.8 billion was 8.47 percent below the first-quarter KRW 158.2 billion.
That combination explains the careful tone around the third-quarter estimate: loan expansion was expected to support income, but funding costs and net interest margin remained central variables. The KRW 25,000 target was unchanged from Hanwha's July 28, 2026 target, according to NewsPim.
Reporting dates are next
Investing.com lists November 2, 2026 as the next earnings date for iM Financial. ATS View lists November 16, 2026 as the statutory deadline for the third-quarter report.
