Amorepacific’s third-quarter results show higher sales and operating profit, but a drop in net profit. Business of Fashion reports revenue growth continues, with domestic performance stronger than the previous quarter, while growth slows overseas.
Korea Times and Yonhap both focus on the net-profit decline, saying it falls 14.3% year-on-year due to non-operating costs. They report third-quarter net profit of 58.5 billion won, down from 68.2 billion won a year earlier, while operating profit rises and sales increase to 1.12 trillion won. Both outlets say Amorepacific points to solid overseas demand in markets such as the United States, Japan and India, with brands including Aestura and Innisfree supported by continued global interest in K-beauty.
For Korea, the reporting highlights strength across brands and channels, including Hera and Sulwhasoo, plus double-digit e-commerce growth and continued performance through retailers and duty-free channels. While the outlets largely agree on the core financial trends and the company’s broad explanations, the business-focused piece emphasizes the pace and direction of revenue growth, particularly the cooling overseas momentum.
