Q2 revenue grows 10.2 percent
According to ATS View on October 4, 2026, Nongshim generated KRW 956 billion in Q2 2026 revenue, up 10.2 percent year on year. Operating profit reached KRW 59.3 billion, with net income at KRW 54.7 billion.
The quarter also marked a clear improvement against Q2 2025, when revenue was KRW 868 billion and operating profit was KRW 40.2 billion, according to the quarterly figures compiled by ATS View. Operating profit therefore rose from KRW 40.2 billion to KRW 59.3 billion year on year, while the operating margin increased from 4.6 percent to 6.2 percent.
Overseas growth supports estimates
Asiae reported on September 9, 2026 that Hana Securities maintained a Buy rating and a KRW 540,000 price target. The brokerage cited overseas expansion and new plant capacity as drivers for Nongshim's medium-term sales outlook.
The same report said Nongshim's U.S. sales excluding Canada increased 17.9 percent year on year to KRW 146 billion in Q2 2026. Hana Securities forecast Q3 2026 consolidated sales of KRW 935.4 billion, up 7.4 percent, and operating profit of KRW 60.7 billion, up 11.6 percent.
Consensus target stays above price
According to StockHub, the September 8, 2026 consensus included 10 Buy ratings, no Hold ratings and no Sell ratings, with a median target of KRW 560,000. That target lies 40.0 percent above the KRW 400,000 price on October 7, 2026.
StockHub also listed nine targets from the prior 90 days, averaging KRW 557,778, with a high of KRW 600,000 and a low of KRW 530,000. The gap between the market price and the analyst range makes overseas execution and margin durability the central valuation questions.
Stock remains below yearly high
Nongshim's October 7 price stood between the 52-week low of KRW 319,000 and the 52-week high of KRW 480,500. Its market capitalization was KRW 2.3 trillion and volume was 3,080 shares at the same intraday timestamp.
The next scheduled earnings date listed by InvestPane is November 12, 2026. That report will test whether the Q2 combination of double-digit revenue growth and a 6.2 percent operating margin carries into the second half.
