JESCO Holdings announced on March 3 that its consolidated sales for the previous year reached 41.1 billion won, up 44.73%. During the same period, operating loss was significantly reduced from 14.6 billion won in 2024 to 8.4 billion won last year.
This performance growth is attributed not only to increased steel demand but also to structural improvement strategies such as cost structure optimization, process optimization, and product portfolio adjustment. In particular, the steel business saw sales growth due to the recovery of downstream industries, diversification of sales channels, and increased market share.
The outlook for this year is also positive. As of January, sales stood at approximately 5.0 billion won. Recently, the steel market has seen some easing of pressure from imports due to strengthened anti-dumping measures, and expectations for price and supply stability are rising.
Additionally, further corporate value enhancement is expected through the nickel mining project, which is being pursued to secure new growth drivers. JESCO Holdings is steadily progressing with permitting, infrastructure development, and commercialization preparations for the local project.
A company representative stated, "This performance is not merely a temporary rebound, but a tangible result of stabilizing the company structure around core operations and expanding the business portfolio," adding, "We will continue to strengthen profitability in the steel segment and focus our capabilities on commercializing new businesses to secure future growth drivers."
