Samsung Securities stock (ISIN KR7016360000) fell 1.44 percent to KRW 89,100 on the Korea Exchange on October 6, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. KST. The latest quarterly report showed Q2 2026 net income of KRW 488 billion, compared with KRW 451 billion in Q1.

Profit improves in Q2

Samsung Securities reported Q2 operating profit of KRW 676 billion, up from KRW 610 billion in Q1, according to ATS View. That represents growth of 10.8 percent between the two quarters.

The same quarterly table puts Q2 net income at KRW 488 billion against KRW 451 billion in Q1, an 8.2 percent increase. Samsung Securities lists its FY2026 Q2 quarterly report as released on August 4, 2026.

Dividend appeal meets market pressure

For investors, the earnings comparison is set against a weaker brokerage backdrop. Pulse reported on September 29, 2026, that Shinhan Securities cut its Samsung Securities target price by 15 percent as lower market turnover clouded near-term earnings expectations.

The same report cited a 7.1 percent expected 2026 dividend yield for Samsung Securities and a company goal of lifting its payout ratio to 50 percent over the medium to long term. The contrast is important: quarterly profit improved, while the sector assessment still points to turnover and earnings sensitivity.

Consensus target remains higher

StockHub lists 10 Samsung Securities target reports with a median target of KRW 130,000 and an average of KRW 134,700 as of September 21, 2026. The published range runs from KRW 110,000 to KRW 158,000, with eight Buy ratings, two Hold ratings and zero Sell ratings.

The median target lies 45.9 percent above the October 6 price of KRW 89,100. That gap is a valuation reference, not a forecast from this article, and it sits alongside the 15 percent target reduction cited by Pulse.

Stock remains below yearly high
