Hyundai Steel swings to Q2 2026 net profit as revenue rises to KRW 6.11 trillion
Hyundai Steel's Q2 2026 results show a sequential rebound: revenue rose on higher volumes and pricing, while operating profit improved sharply versus Q1 and the firm returned to net profit. However, profitability remains weaker year over year, indicating margins are still under pressure despite cost cuts and a richer product mix (notably automotive steel). The update may modestly support near-term sentiment toward the Hyundai complex.
