Hankook has posted consolidated global financial results for the third quarter of 2025, reporting sales of KRW 5.4127 trillion (~3,342.7 million euros) and operating profit of KRW 585.9 billion (~361.8 million euros). In the tyre business, sales reached KRW 2.7070 trillion (EUR ~ 1,671.7m), up 11.2 per cent year-over-year, while operating profit rose 10.4 per cent to KRW 519.2 billion (EUR ~ 320.6m), marking the highest quarterly performance in the company’s history. The increase in sales was driven by stronger demand for both replacement and original equipment (OE) tyres in global markets, along with “an increased proportion of high-inch tyre sales”. Declines in raw material and logistics costs partially offset the impact of U.S. automotive parts tariffs, supporting overall operating profit.
