LG Display Posts 431 Billion Won Operating Profit in Q3... Annual Profitability in Sight After Four Years

Q3 Revenue Reaches 6.957 Trillion Won
OLED Sales Account for a Record-High 65%
Profitability Rebounds on Expanded Shipments Across All Product Lines

LG Display achieved a significant improvement in its performance in the third quarter of 2025, putting the company on the verge of returning to annual profitability for the first time in four years.

On October 30, LG Display announced that on a consolidated basis, its third-quarter revenue reached 6.957 trillion won, with operating profit at 431 billion won. Compared to the previous quarter, revenue increased by 25%, and operating profit improved by more than 500 billion won. In the same period last year, the company had posted an operating loss of 80.6 billion won.

Cumulative revenue through the third quarter stood at 18.6092 trillion won, with cumulative operating profit at 348.5 billion won. While revenue declined by 1% year-on-year due to the termination of the LCD TV business, operating profit increased by nearly 1 trillion won, signaling that the company's shift to OLED-centric operations is now in full swing.

OLED products accounted for 65% of total revenue, marking an all-time high. Entering the peak season and the launch of new small- and mid-sized OLED products led to increased shipments, which boosted sales. By product category, TV panels accounted for 16% of revenue, IT panels (including monitors, laptops, and tablets) 37%, mobile and other panels 39%, and automotive panels 8%.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) was 1.4239 trillion won, up 35% from the previous quarter and 23% from the same period last year, with an EBITDA margin of 20.5%. The company plans to continue focusing on profitability-driven management, leveraging its competitive edge in OLED technology and cost innovation.

By business segment, the company aims to expand its premium lineup in small- and mid-sized OLEDs by leveraging stable supply capabilities and technological leadership. For large-sized OLEDs, the strategy is to strengthen its position in the market by enhancing its high-end lineup, including gaming monitors. In automotive displays, LG Display plans to maintain growth through a differentiated product portfolio, including tandem P-OLED and ATO (Advanced Thin OLED).

Kim Sunghyun, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of LG Display, stated, "Profitability has improved significantly compared to last year, making a full-year turnaround visible," and added, "Based on our strengthened business fundamentals and operational capabilities, we will further reinforce our profit structure and continue to expand our business performance."
