Samsung Electronics reported Q2 2026 preliminary consolidated revenue of KRW 171.5 trillion (₩1,714,995 billion), up 28.1% quarter-on-quarter and an extraordinary 130.0% year-on-year. Operating income surged to KRW 89.5 trillion (₩894,924 billion), a 56.4% QoQ increase and a staggering 1,814% jump compared to Q2 2025's deeply depressed KRW 4.7 trillion. Net income attributable to controlling shareholders reached KRW 71.3 trillion, up roughly 1,344% YoY. On a first-half cumulative basis, operating income of KRW 146.7 trillion already dwarfs the full-year 2025 figure, reflecting a dramatic semiconductor upcycle recovery. These are preliminary figures subject to revision upon completion of the external audit.
