Daol Investment & Securities said on the 28th that, on a consolidation basis for 2025, revenue was tallied at 1.7197 trillion won and operating profit at 33.4 billion won. Net profit came to 42.3 billion won. Revenue rose 19.2% from a year earlier, and both operating profit and net profit swung to a surplus.
The company said diversification of its revenue structure through business diversification was the main driver of improved results. The corporate, retail, bond sales, and trading institutional sector led performance, and it noted that the investment banking (IB) institutional sector improved profit and loss thanks to reduced exposure to real estate project financing (PF), easing of provision, and some reversal effects. It added that the strategy sales division, established last year, also contributed to revenue diversification through acquisition finance and structured finance.
However, revenue for the fourth quarter last year was 478.4 billion won, down 3.61% from the same period a year earlier, while operating loss came to 3.6 billion won. Operating profit improved 91.86% from the same period a year earlier.
