HD Hyundai Infracore revealed its second-quarter results for 2025 on Wednesday, July 23, highlighting impressive sales and profit growth.

The company achieved sales of 1.1846 trillion won, marking a 6.9% increase year-on-year. This growth was driven by a notable recovery in construction equipment demand across key regions, alongside steady expansion in its engine division.

Operating profit surged by 29.8% year-on-year to reach 105.8 billion won, bolstered by rises in product prices, increased sales in high-margin markets, and a greater focus on high-value-added products. After seven consecutive quarters of decline, revenue returned to growth, with a remarkable 56% increase in operating profit compared to the first quarter.

When analyzing the performance by business division, construction equipment sales increased by 9% year-on-year, reaching 857.4 billion won. This growth was primarily driven by emerging markets and a gradual recovery in global demand. Significant investments in infrastructure and resource development in regions such as Southeast Asia, Africa, and Central and South America have greatly contributed to the increased demand for medium- and large-sized equipment, ultimately enhancing profitability.

Sales in the Chinese market showed signs of recovery, driven by increased infrastructure spending, real estate stimulus measures, and the start of equipment replacement cycles. Meanwhile, advanced markets such as North America and Europe experienced modest growth in sales, supported by rising demand following recent interest rate cuts.

The engine division showed consistent performance, driven by rising power demand and higher sales of carbon-reduction products. Total engine sales amounted to 327.1 billion won, reflecting a 2% increase from the previous year. Operating profit soared by 32% to reach 67.2 billion won, supported by price increases and a product lineup increasingly focused on high-margin offerings.

Sales of generator engines and eco-friendly ship engines have improved significantly, while defense engines maintained stable sales due to steady demand.

An official from HD Hyundai Infracore stated, “As the broader industry begins to recover, our proactive strategies have resulted in enhanced performance. We will closely monitor market conditions in the latter half of the year, prioritize sales of high-value-added products, and focus on key markets to ensure continued growth, with a strong emphasis on profitability.”
