Korea Investment Holdings filed unaudited second-quarter numbers on 6 August. Revenue was ₩13,553.8bn, up 92.7% year on year. Operating income was ₩1,344.2bn against ₩585.6bn a year earlier, a rise of 129.56%. Net income was ₩998.4bn, up 84.78%, and profit attributable to owners of the parent was ₩995.9bn. For the half, operating income reached ₩2,450.5bn, up 119.74%, and net income ₩1,915.0bn, up 91.57%. Those half-year figures are 94.6% of what the company earned in all of FY2025. The filing carries a warning most readers skip: first-quarter and second-quarter revenue do not add to the cumulative figure, because unrealised valuation gains on financial assets and liabilities were adjusted when the half-year statements were prepared.
This filing reports the results of Korea Investment & Securities, the brokerage subsidiary, rather than the listed holding company. The securities arm booked second-quarter revenue of ₩12,895.6bn, up 94.66% year on year, and operating income of ₩1,210.2bn, up 92.38%. Net income was ₩946.4bn, up 64.02%. For the half, operating income was ₩2,170.1bn and net income ₩1,731.1bn, up 89.05% and 68.85%. Set those against the holding company's own filing the same day. The parent reported ₩998.4bn of consolidated net income for the quarter, so the brokerage produced about 95% of it. The filing also states that the subsidiary was 52.3% of the group's total assets at the end of 2025, which means half the balance sheet is generating nearly all the profit.
