d’Alba Global Q3 2026 slides: record profit, currency weighs on revenue

On November 12, 2026, d’Alba Global Co., Ltd. released its Q3 2026 financial results, revealing a record-breaking operating profit growth amidst currency challenges and falling short of revenue expectations. The Korean beauty and personal care company reported a 36% year-over-year revenue increase to KRW 155.6 billion, but this fell 10.5% short of analysts' consensus estimate of KRW 173.9 billion.

Despite the revenue shortfall, operating profit surged 101% to KRW 33.4 billion, marking the company's strongest profit growth since its IPO. The stock suffered a 13.97% drop, trading at $125,600, only 1.3% above its 52-week low and 55.6% below its recent high. Management cited foreign exchange effects, as the Korean won's appreciation lowered overseas sales.

Despite the revenue miss, the company's operating margin expanded to 21.5% from 14.6% the previous year, driven by cost efficiency improvements and reduced expenses. The company had a strong year-to-date performance, with revenue reaching KRW 513.7 billion and operating profit at KRW 125.8 billion, surpassing the full-year 2025 figures.

Overseas revenue, which constituted 75% of total sales, hit a record high for the third quarter. The company's international expansion, particularly in Europe, ASEAN, and Japan, contributed significantly to this growth.
