Fiscal Year 2026
-
Q1 2026 saw stable consolidated profit amid external volatility, with strong U.S. energy and chemical/materials performance offsetting losses from scheduled maintenance in polysilicon. U.S. policy and AI-driven power demand are expected to drive future growth.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
Q4 2025 marked a return to profitability, driven by OCI TerraSus resuming operations and improved margins. Full-year results were impacted by a shutdown and market uncertainties, but strong demand and strategic expansions support a positive long-term outlook.
-
Q3 2025 revenue rose 9% QOQ to KRW 845 billion, with losses narrowing as solar and urban development segments rebounded. OCI TerraSus saw strong demand but continued losses, while new investments in wafers and data centers target future growth.
-
Q2 saw an 18% revenue decline and an operating loss, with all major subsidiaries impacted by macroeconomic and U.S. policy headwinds. Strategic realignment is underway, and earnings are expected to improve in the second half as market demand recovers.
-
Q1 saw a return to profitability with KRW 947 billion in sales and improved subsidiary performance, except for chemicals. Polysilicon and U.S. solar businesses drove growth, but market uncertainty from tariffs and weak demand persists.
Fiscal Year 2024
-
2024 revenue rose 35% year-over-year, but operating profit dropped 81% due to weak polysilicon sales and urban development losses. Market uncertainty and policy changes weighed on results, but new ventures and share buybacks aim to support future growth.
-
Q3 2024 saw a 4% drop in sales and a 77% decline in operating income, mainly from weaker polysilicon performance and higher urban development costs. Uncertainties in U.S. trade policy and global solar oversupply continue to impact demand, but stable revenues are expected from new solar projects.
-
Q2 2024 saw revenue rise 9.8% sequentially to KRW 950 billion, but operating income fell 9.8% due to U.S. module and urban development underperformance. OCIM's strong Q2 was offset by market uncertainties and regulatory headwinds, with a cautious outlook for H2 2024.
