Hecto Innovation Sets New Record for Highest Quarterly Performance with Sales of 95.6 Billion Won

IT information service company Hecto Innovation continues to break its own record for the highest quarterly performance.

On November 6, Hecto Innovation announced its provisional results for the third quarter of 2025, reporting consolidated sales of 95.6 billion won and operating profit of 14.7 billion won. These figures represent increases of 19.2% and 5.4%, respectively, compared to the same period last year.

Hecto Innovation surpassed 30 billion won in quarterly sales on a standalone basis for the first time since its founding, thanks to the stable growth of its existing businesses. The strong performance of subsidiaries in the fintech and healthcare sectors led to a new record for the highest quarterly results, following the previous quarter.

The healthcare division drove strong results with explosive growth and improved profitability. Subsidiary Hecto Healthcare achieved cumulative sales of 64.4 billion won in the third quarter, already surpassing its full-year 2024 sales of 60.8 billion won within the third quarter of this year.

Since the third quarter of 2024, Hecto Healthcare has recorded an average quarterly growth rate of 13.7%. The company's strategy of continuously expanding its portfolio-through the expansion of online and offline distribution channels for its flagship premium probiotic product 'De Simone', as well as the introduction of women's probiotics and height growth health supplements-proved effective. Hecto Healthcare aims to accelerate its growth by expanding external channels and maintaining robust growth in its own online mall.

In the fintech sector, subsidiary Hecto Financial improved profitability by attracting new clients for its highly profitable simple cash payment business, expanding global sales, and launching new services.

Hecto Innovation is actively implementing shareholder return measures and commercializing new growth engines to enhance shareholder value. On November 17, the company plans to cancel 131,246 treasury shares, equivalent to 1% of total shares issued, in accordance with its three-year shareholder return plan.

New businesses are also becoming visible. In September, the company acquired a 47.15% stake in blockchain wallet technology firm WalletOne (formerly Hexlant), thereby accelerating its entry into new businesses related to Web3 and stablecoins. Recently, the company was selected as the sole domestic partner in the 'wallet' sector for Circle's stablecoin-dedicated blockchain mainnet 'Arc' public testnet.

Lee Hyuncheol, CEO of Hecto Innovation, stated, "Even as our existing businesses maintain solid growth, Hecto Innovation continues to make efforts to discover new growth engines. We will accelerate new business initiatives based on synergies with subsidiaries such as WalletOne, and maximize shareholder value through ongoing shareholder return measures."
