CUPIST, a leading love-tech company in Korea, achieved record-breaking results in 2025, marking explosive growth. According to its 2025 audit report, CUPIST posted sales revenue of 16.31498 billion won and operating profit of 1.98333 billion won.

This represents a 19.33% increase in sales revenue compared to the previous year, while operating profit soared by 263.61%, indicating that the company achieved much stronger internal growth than external expansion. Net profit for the period also rose sharply, reaching 1.80686 billion won, up 219.20% year-on-year, continuing its upward trend since turning profitable in 2024.

Consolidated revenue across the brand portfolio reached approximately 21.9 billion won, with operating profit at about 3.4 billion won, increasing by more than 38% and 350%, respectively, compared to the previous year.

CUPIST attributed this quantum leap in performance to thorough cost efficiency and global market expansion. While sales posted double-digit growth, the company managed to keep selling and administrative expense growth limited to 9.18%, improving management efficiency. Notably, aggressive moves into global markets such as North America and Europe have led to tangible results, fundamentally improving the profit structure. The company highlighted that 'DotDotDot', its global-targeted service, recorded a repurchase rate of nearly 90%, demonstrating strong synergy between marketing and product.

The strategy of building a segmented dating portfolio tailored to different target groups, rather than relying on a single service, was also identified as a key driver of improved performance. While its flagship service, GLAM, maintained a solid revenue base, the preference-based matching service KEMIT launched in Japan, accelerating global business expansion. In addition, premium matching services such as Twenis, targeting women in their 20s, Alphastate, and OnlyPass have gained traction, further enhancing user retention.

Jae-Won Ahn, CEO of CUPIST, reaffirmed the company mission of delivering personalized love through data and addressing loneliness with technology. He pledged to leverage the company's current stable profit structure and global scalability to establish CUPIST as a dominant love-tech giant.
