Stock valuation and market setting

Lotte Wellfood's KOSPI instrument was last at KRW 123,700.00 on October 23, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. KST. The quoted market capitalization was KRW 1.1 trillion, while the 52-week range was KRW 90,000.00 to KRW 155,000.00.

Lotte Wellfood makes confectionery, frozen snacks, bread products and functional food. Its investment case therefore rests on the balance between overseas growth and input-cost control. The second-quarter figures show the earnings recovery already extending beyond revenue growth.

Next earnings date sets the test

The November 6, 2026 reporting date will put the overseas growth thesis against fresh operating figures. India expansion, pricing, cocoa costs and domestic efficiency remain the central variables in the analyst forecasts.
