- Hanssem stock stood at KRW 38,250 at 1:50 p.m. KST on October 23, 2026 on the Korea Exchange.

Hanssem expanded its shareholder-return framework by raising the minimum dividend per share to KRW 800 and planning KRW 10 billion of annual share purchases. MoneyToday reported the policy on October 14, 2026. The change gives Hanssem stock a clearer income and capital-allocation angle while earnings remain mixed.
Profitability improves as sales contract
Hanssem recorded consolidated first-half 2026 sales of KRW 816.6 billion, down 9.6 percent from the same period, while operating profit rose 145.6 percent to KRW 21.3 billion. TopDaily reported the figures on October 20, 2026. The combination points to a smaller revenue base but stronger cost control, an important distinction for investors assessing the recovery.
What does the return plan change?
The policy raises the dividend funding criterion from at least 15 percent to at least 20 percent of standalone operating profit and adds a KRW 10 billion annual buyback that the company plans to cancel. MoneyToday also reported that Hanssem had reduced first-half inventory assets by 8 percent year over year. That combination links shareholder returns with a direct effort to reduce discounting and improve margins.
Three dated milestones shape the stock
On June 30, 2026, Hanssem's second-quarter revenue was KRW 417.23 billion and net income was KRW 4.77 billion, according to TopDaily. On October 14, 2026, the company lifted its minimum dividend to KRW 800 and set a KRW 10 billion annual buyback plan, as MoneyToday reported. On October 20, 2026, a report cited third-quarter forecasts of KRW 409.3 billion in sales and KRW 8.4 billion in operating profit.
Next date is November 16
Hanssem's next scheduled earnings release is November 16, 2026, according to Investing.com. That report should show whether the first-half improvement in operating profit is continuing into the third quarter.
KRW 38,250 quote sets the market reference
Hanssem was quoted at KRW 38,250 at 1:50 p.m. KST on October 23, 2026 on the Korea Exchange. Its market capitalization was KRW 628.3 billion on the same date. The figures frame the shareholder-return policy against a company whose first-half sales fell while operating profit advanced.
