SK Telecom's 1Q Earnings Could Be Largely in Line With Consensus -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-13

0627 GMT - SK Telecom's 1Q earnings could be largely in line with market consensus, Meritz Securities' Jeong Ji-soo and Park Geon-young say. Increased marketing costs likely led to a decline in operating profit for the January-March period, despite a possible increase in the number of 5G-service subscribers, the analysts write in a note. They estimate SK Telecom's 1Q operating profit at 506.3 billion won, compared with the market consensus estimate of 508.0 billion won. They expect the company to ramp up dividend payments starting in 1Q, with dividend-per-share likely to rise to 3,540 won in 2026 from 1,660 won in 2025. (kwanwoo.jun@wsj.com)
