三星物产二季度营业利润同比增长37%并超过1万亿韩元

Samsung C&T (028260) posted second-quarter operating profit that rose more than 37% from a year earlier to surpass 1 trillion won. Strong performances in its construction and trading divisions led the growth, while net profit surged more than 70%, in what was seen as proof of the strength of its diversified business portfolio.
On the 29th, Samsung C&T disclosed preliminary second-quarter results on a consolidated basis, with revenue of 11.9951 trillion won and operating profit of 1.0317 trillion won.
Compared with the same period a year earlier, revenue increased 19.7% and operating profit rose 37.1%. Against the previous quarter, revenue and operating profit grew 14.6% and 43.2%, respectively. Net profit came in at 915.5 billion won, up 73.9% from a year earlier, while pretax profit jumped 43.1% to 1.0773 trillion won.
Construction and trading drove both top-line growth and profitability. Construction division revenue rose 17.5% from a year earlier to 3.988 trillion won, and operating profit increased 71.2% to 202 billion won. The gains reflected the full-scale progress of large-scale high-tech and overseas plant projects. The trading division achieved revenue of 4.703 trillion won and operating profit of 142 billion won, driven by expanded trading performance in major industrial materials and strong results in the renewable energy business. These figures rose 24.5% and 77.5%, respectively, from the same period a year earlier, making the largest contribution to the overall improvement in results.
The fashion division delivered solid results on the back of improved consumer sentiment. Balanced growth across domestic and international brands, along with operational efficiency, produced operating profit of 54 billion won, up 63.6% from a year earlier. The resort division, by contrast, saw revenue rise 3.9% to 1.092 trillion won on the expansion of its food and beverage business, but operating profit fell 11.1% to 48 billion won due to a decline in leisure demand. "Amid uncertainty in the business environment, we are continuing stable growth based on the competitiveness of our diversified businesses," a Samsung C&T official said.
