KT first-quarter operating profit 482.7 billion won, down 29.9 percent year on year
KT posted first-quarter consolidated revenue of 6.78 trillion won and operating profit of 482.7 billion won, down 1.0 percent and 29.9 percent from a year earlier. The profit fell due to base effects from one-off gains last year, though improved results at KT Estate and content affiliates eased the decline. KT also announced shareholder return plans for 2026 to 2028, including a minimum annual dividend of 2,400 won per share in 2026.
