Samsung Securities Surpasses 1 Trillion Won in Net Profit for the First Time... Strong Brokerage Performance Drives Results

Samsung Securities achieved a record performance last year, surpassing 1 trillion won in consolidated net profit for the first time in its history.

On January 23, Samsung Securities announced that its preliminary net profit for last year reached 1.0084 trillion won, an increase of 12.2% compared to the previous year. This marks the first time the company’s annual net profit has exceeded 1 trillion won.

Solid profitability improvements, particularly in the brokerage division, drove the strong results. During the same period, operating profit rose by 14.2% year-on-year to 1.3768 trillion won, while pre-tax profit increased by 12.3% to 1.3586 trillion won.

Thanks to this performance improvement, shareholder returns will also be expanded. Samsung Securities has decided on a dividend of 4,000 won per share. However, this dividend proposal may be subject to change during the upcoming shareholders’ meeting approval process. The schedule for the shareholders’ meeting has not yet been confirmed.
