KCC stock weighs 5.9 percent revenue growth against KRW 730,000 target

KCC (ISIN KR7002380004) was trading at KRW 474,000 on the Korea Exchange KOSPI market on October 7, 2026 at 10:56 a.m. KST, down 0.84 percent from the prior close. The immediate investment case combines 5.9 percent year-over-year revenue growth in Q2 2026 with a KRW 730,000 analyst consensus target.

Revenue reaches KRW 1.81 trillion

According to ATS View, KCC reported Q2 2026 revenue of KRW 1.81 trillion, up 5.9 percent from the same quarter a year earlier. Operating profit was KRW 129 billion, equal to a 7.1 percent operating margin.

The quarterly figures give the stock a clearer operating benchmark than the headline net income number. KCC's Q1 2026 revenue was KRW 1.63 trillion and operating profit was KRW 88.1 billion, so the Q2 operating result was higher by KRW 40.9 billion.

Analysts lift the valuation bar

On September 22, 2026, NH Investment and Securities raised its KCC target from KRW 680,000 to KRW 730,000 while keeping a Buy rating, according to Aju News. The report linked the change to silicon profitability improvements and broader shareholder returns.

The consensus picture is broader than one brokerage view. StockHub lists seven reports, a median target of KRW 730,000 and a Buy consensus; the median target lies 54.0 percent above the October 7 price of KRW 474,000.

The same analyst case includes a structural shareholder-return angle. NH Investment and Securities said KCC planned to cancel 77 percent of its treasury shares by September 2027, equivalent to 13 percent of total shares, according to Aju News.
