"Results Reflecting the Cost of Production Facility Expansion"

Huons Global's consolidated operating profit for the third quarter was 14.4 billion KRW, a 55% decrease compared to the same period last year. Sales increased by 5% to 199.4 billion KRW. Net profit fell by 61% to 9.1 billion KRW.

On the 15th, Huons Global stated that this operating profit result was due to changes in the sales composition by product and the reflection of costs related to the expansion of production facilities.
