LG Electronics Reports Q3 2025 Revenue of KRW 21.88 Trillion and Operating Profit of KRW 688.9 Billion, Exceeding Market Expectations
Cairo, 14 October 2025:
LG Electronics Inc. (LG) today announced its preliminary earnings results for the third quarter of 2025, reporting consolidated revenue of KRW 21.88 trillion and an operating profit of KRW 688.9 billion.
Despite external headwinds, including escalating U.S. tariffs, both figures surpassed market expectations. Revenue marked the second-highest ever for a third quarter, while operating profit exceeded recent forecasts by more than 10 percent.
Overcoming Challenges
Profitability declined year-on-year due to several non-recurring factors, including higher tariff burdens under changing trade conditions. Nevertheless, LG offset market concerns and exceeded expectations through strong performances across its core and future-oriented business divisions.
The home appliance solutions division maintained competitiveness and leadership, while the vehicle solutions business achieved record-high profitability.
Strategic Focus on Growth
LG continues to strengthen its business fundamentals through qualitative growth – emphasizing B2B operations such as vehicle solutions and HVAC, expanding non-hardware platforms like appliance subscriptions and webOS, and enhancing its online business.
The upcoming IPO of LG Electronics India Limited is expected to secure significant funding to accelerate business structure improvements and drive future growth.
Division Highlights
Home Appliance Solutions
Despite tariff pressures on U.S. exports and a delayed global demand recovery, LG maintained leadership in premium segments and stable performance in mass markets. Optimized production, resource efficiency, and growth in subscription-based appliance services supported these results.
Media & Entertainment Solutions
Faced with increased marketing costs amid fierce competition in the global TV market, LG plans to strengthen webOS competitiveness to diversify profits, focusing on advertising and content expansion. Growth efforts will target the Global South, where TV demand remains resilient.
Vehicle Solutions
The division achieved record-breaking profitability in Q3, driven by premium in-vehicle infotainment systems and improved operational margins. LG is expanding beyond hardware into vehicle content platforms, supported by strong orders and operational efficiency in EV powertrain and lighting units.
Eco Solutions
LG is expanding its footprint in commercial HVAC, industrial chillers, and power plant systems. Recently, the company secured large-scale AI data center cooling projects across North America, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia. These will serve as key references for long-term growth and support the upcoming commercialization of liquid cooling solutions for data centers – a next-generation technology expected to drive future expansion.
Investor Update
These figures are tentative consolidated earnings based on K-IFRS, shared for investor reference before LG’s final Q3 results, which will include net profit details. Comprehensive division performance will be officially announced later this month.
