HD Hyundai Marine Engine stock falls 1.49 percent as profit grows
Published on 10/07/2026 at 02:39 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSHD Hyundai Marine Engine (ISIN KR7071970008) was trading at KRW 46,400 on KOSPI on October 7, 2026 at 9:18 a.m. KST, down 1.49 percent from the previous close. The market move comes as the company enters the second half with stronger quarterly revenue and operating profit.
Second-quarter revenue grows 29.1 percent
According to ATS View in its coverage of the June 2026 quarter, revenue reached KRW 128.1 billion, up 29.1 percent from the year-earlier quarter. Operating profit stood at KRW 31.3 billion, producing a 24.4 percent operating margin.
The figures keep the earnings story constructive even though second-quarter revenue was below the KRW 133.5 billion reported for the first quarter of 2026. Operating profit also eased from KRW 32.6 billion in the first quarter, making sequential execution the more important comparison for investors than the year-over-year growth rate alone.
Analysts see a wide valuation gap
StockHub lists four analysts with Buy ratings and an overall Strong Buy consensus. The average 12-month target is KRW 109,000, which places the target 134.9 percent above the KRW 46,400 market price.
That consensus sits alongside a more specific call from Mirae Asset Securities. As Daum reported on September 29, 2026, the house initiated coverage with a Buy rating and a KRW 85,000 target. The report linked the view to projected 2028 controlling net income of KRW 200.0 billion and a 14.5 times earnings multiple.
Engine demand meets execution risk
HD Hyundai Marine Engine describes three operating areas on its investor-relations site: engine manufacturing, parts and technical services. The portfolio includes marine propulsion engines, genuine replacement parts, engine services, repair work, eco solutions and defense-related services.
The analyst case also identifies a specific execution condition. Mirae Asset expects turbocharger expansion, gas-turbine blade production and data-center-related demand to support a possible revaluation, while the companys direct exposure to medium-speed four-stroke engines remains limited. LPG dual-fuel engines represented 7 percent of second-quarter revenue, giving product mix a measurable role in the medium-term outlook.
