Shinsung E&G said on Thursday it posted 155.4 billion won in revenue and 3.5 billion won in operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2025. Revenue fell 3.3 percent and operating profit dropped 44.7 percent from a year earlier. Operating profit jumped 1,301.9 percent from the previous quarter. Net profit was 3.2 billion won, swinging to profit from a loss in the previous quarter.
Full-year revenue was 570.3 billion won, down 2.1 percent from a year earlier. Operating profit was 1.9 billion won, down 62.4 percent from 5.0 billion won a year earlier. The company posted a full-year net loss of 7.2 billion won.
Despite a difficult business environment last year due to slowing investment in downstream industries, cumulative losses continued through the third quarter. The company rebounded in the fourth quarter. It said profitability-focused business operations were behind the turnaround. It said it delivered results by improving project execution efficiency and strengthening cost controls, including excluding low-profit projects through a selective order strategy.
This year it will foster semiconductors, secondary batteries and data centre businesses as key growth pillars. It said its self-developed EDM (Equipment Dehumidify Module) equipment is contributing to improving process yield. It is also pursuing energy savings and more advanced environmental control with its cleanroom technology.
It is also expanding the application of its technology in the data centre field. That is a strategy to respond to customer demands for earlier start-ups and higher yield. The company plans to focus on generating results through high value-added clean-environment businesses.
It will also push to advance its technology and systematise its business operation systems. It aims to pursue profitability-focused growth by strengthening its selective order strategy and reinforcing cost and quality management.
A Shinsung E&G official said, "As an unprecedented industry cycle unfolds centred on the semiconductor industry, we are concentrating our capabilities on securing core technological competitiveness that can respond to high-difficulty process environments." The official added, "Along with advancing our technology, we will build a more sophisticated and systematic business operation system, and pursue stable, profitability-focused growth through a selective order strategy and stronger cost and quality management."
