Poongsan stock (ISIN KR7103140000) was last at KRW 75,400 on the KRX on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. KST, down 5.51 percent. The move followed a fresh debate about third-quarter earnings, while the company’s second-quarter figures still show double-digit growth.

Second-quarter profit grew 33.8 percent

According to Todaystk in its October 6, 2026 review, Poongsan generated KRW 2.7412 trillion in revenue in the first half of 2026, up 11.9 percent from the prior-year period. Operating profit rose 31.9 percent to KRW 215.4 billion.

The second quarter accounted for KRW 1.470322 trillion in revenue and KRW 125.211 billion in operating profit, according to Todaystk. Revenue increased 13.6 percent year over year, while operating profit advanced 33.8 percent, putting the quarter ahead of the first quarter on both measures.

Third-quarter estimates turned cautious

A Korea Economic Daily article dated October 6, 2026 said KB Securities expects Poongsan’s third-quarter results to fall below expectations and lowered its price target. The report adds a counterweight to the first-half growth picture because the next reporting period covers July through September.

Consensus data from StockHub showed 10 reports with a median target of KRW 110,000. The median stood 41.8 percent above the KRW 77,600 price shown on that page on September 29, 2026, although the more recent KRX quote was lower at KRW 75,400.

Stock remains below yearly high

Poongsan’s October 6 price sits between the 52-week low of KRW 55,200 and the high of KRW 159,200. The market capitalization was KRW 2.1 trillion and volume reached 213,197 shares on the same KRX session, giving the earnings debate a smaller-capitalization market setting.

For investors, the central contrast is quantitative: first-half operating profit grew 31.9 percent, while the October 6 market move reflected concern about the third-quarter outlook. That gap makes the next reported period more important than the strong second-quarter comparison alone.
