Hana Financial Group reported higher 2026 profit through September, and its shares remain well below their 52-week high.

Hana Financial Group, a Korean financial holding company with banking, securities, card and insurance units, closed at ₩112,400 on 2026-10-26, about 21% below its 52-week high of ₩142,500. Trailing twelve-month operating income is ₩5.6T and net income is ₩4.1T, with ROE of 9.2%. Recent filings and headlines centre on preliminary third-quarter earnings, a dividend decision and a planned share cancellation.

What stands out

• Trailing net income of ₩4.1T is up from ₩3.7T in 2024 and ₩3.4T in 2023, and 2025 year-end net income was ₩4.0T.
• Press reports describe a record nine-month profit of ₩3.62T and Q3 operating profit of ₩1.63T, up about 10% year on year.
• Valuation at 7.4x P/E and 0.6x P/B sits below the 2025 year-end P/E of 6.4x only slightly higher, and the 3.7% dividend yield is noted in coverage.
• Filings on 2026-10-23 include a cash dividend decision, a share buyback decision and a share cancellation decision, and press coverage points to an expected 50% shareholder return ratio.
• Liabilities to equity of about 1,373% and borrowings of ₩76.2T are high, though this is typical for a financial holding group; the data does not give a capital ratio figure.
• The one-month share price return is -15.6%, while the one-year return is +27.7%; foreign investors were net sellers over the last 20 days, while foreign ownership rose slightly to 68.6%.

What to watch

• Final dividend record date and payment details following the 2026-10-23 dividend and record-date filings.
• Execution of the share buyback and share cancellation, and the terms of the securities registration and write-down contingent convertible bond issuance.
• Full third-quarter and annual results, since the revenue and margin lines are not reported in the data and the preliminary figures may be revised.
