LX International (ISIN KR7001120005) received a higher target from KRW 53,000 to KRW 58,000 on October 8, 2026, as Newspim reported. Samsung Securities kept a Buy view, pointing to stronger coal prices and container freight rates while identifying mine production quotas as a key execution issue.

Analyst target rises to KRW 58,000

The new target was 9.43 percent above the previous KRW 53,000 target, according to the October 8 report. Samsung Securities also cited a six-month average target of KRW 59,000, placing the revised view close to the broader analyst range.

The operating backdrop is improving, but the report also highlighted uncertainty around shipping rates if the Middle East conflict changes trade routes. Indonesian policies affecting mining production quotas could support coal and nickel prices, while securing those quotas remains important for LX International.

Second-quarter revenue grows 24.70 percent

LX International generated KRW 4.78 trillion of revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 24.70 percent from the second quarter of 2025, while operating profit reached KRW 118.00 billion and net income was KRW 78.80 billion, according to ATS View.

The result compares with KRW 4.21 trillion of revenue and KRW 109.00 billion of operating profit in the first quarter of 2026. The logistics and trading structure gives the company exposure to freight rates, energy commodities and industrial materials, so revenue growth alone does not settle the margin question.

Three dated signals for the stock

On April 29, 2026, LX International reported first-quarter operating profit of KRW 109.00 billion, down 6.80 percent year over year, in the corporate news record carried by MarketScreener. On September 22, 2026, a related transaction involved KRW 2.90 billion of funding from LX International, adding a concrete capital-allocation data point.

The latest analyst action therefore sits between stronger second-quarter operations and a set of commodity, freight and quota variables. That combination makes operating profit the clearest figure to track alongside revenue in the next reported period.
