Hanon Systems Announces Full Year 2024 Financial Results
SEOUL, South Korea, Feb. 13, 2025 – Hanon Systems,
a leading global automotive thermal management supplier and subsidiary of
Hankook & Company Group, today reported its full year 2024 financial results.
For the fourth quarter of 2024, Hanon Systems
reported consolidated revenue of KRW 2.5498 trillion, marking a 3.8% increase
year-over-year and a 2% increase from the previous quarter. However, the fourth
quarter operating income showed a loss of KRW 98.8 billion due to one-time
factors and global restructuring costs. The total net loss for the year 2024,
including the fourth quarter operating loss, decreased production volumes due
to a slowdown in EV sales, interest expenses, and impairment losses on intangible
assets, amounted to KRW 334.4 billion.
The company expects that there will be no
difficulty achieving sales exceeding KRW 10 trillion in 2025, and the operating
margin is expected to improve gradually.
In 2025, the company will continue improving
profitability and cash flow, strengthening accountability in management through
the rollout of a new regional organization structure, and enhancing management
efficiency through successful integration. The company has established specific
implementation plans to achieve these goals. In January, Hanon Systems realigned
its organization to regional business groups to drive greater efficiency and strengthen
responses to customers’ needs.
Vice Chairman and CEO Soo Il Lee stated: "In the short term, our priority is to
enhance financial structures through cost reduction and operational efficiency.
In the long term, by strengthening accountability in management, we will
establish a proactive organizational culture." He added, "Through
these measures, we will lay a foundation for sustainable growth and make
company-wide efforts towards successful integration."
Hanon Systems expects to see tangible results in
the second half of the year and, through synergies with the Hankook &
Company Group, aims to achieve a stable financial structure within two to three
years, continuously enhancing competitiveness by responding agilely to
strategic changes in customers’ demands.
