Youlchon Chemical (KR7008730004) reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of KRW 156.11 billion and net income of KRW 5.79 billion. Investing.com dated the latest release August 14, 2026, while the figures point to a sharper sequential improvement in earnings than in sales. For investors, the second-quarter operating rebound is the clearest company-specific reference available for assessing the stock.

Revenue growth reached 22.71 percent

Revenue increased from KRW 127.218 billion in the previous quarter to KRW 156.11 billion in the second quarter of 2026. TradingView calculated the sequential increase at 22.71 percent and reported second-quarter net income of KRW 5.79 billion. The revenue advance gives the result a broader base than a profit change alone, although the available figures do not establish how much came from individual product lines.

What does the Q2 rebound show?

The earnings comparison is more pronounced than the sales change. Net income rose from KRW 1.501 billion in the previous quarter to KRW 5.790 billion in the second quarter of 2026, while reported earnings per share reached KRW 233. The combination of higher revenue and stronger profit provides a concrete benchmark for the next reported period, particularly because the latest figures are quarterly rather than full-year results.

Youlchon Chemical is listed on the KRX Korea Exchange under ticker 008730. Finanz und Wirtschaft identifies the company, ticker, ISIN and chemical sector. That listing context matters for U.S.-based readers because the home-market quotation is in Korean won, not euros or U.S. dollars.
