NHN KCP reports record-high sales of 383.4 billion won and transaction volume of 17 trillion won for the second quarter

NHN KCP announced through a public disclosure that its consolidated revenue for the second quarter of 2026 reached 38.34 billion won, with an operating profit of 15.4 billion won. This represents a 28% increase in revenue and a 25% increase in operating profit compared to the same period last year, marking the highest quarterly revenue in the company's history. During the same period, the total transaction volume also increased by 34% year-on-year to approximately 17 trillion won, setting a new record for the highest quarterly transaction volume. The main factors driving this growth were the expansion of transactions with high-quality merchants both domestically and internationally. Overseas, the increase in vehicle sales from existing global electric vehicle merchants, along with the inclusion of online transactions from new imported car merchants, contributed to the strong performance. Furthermore, transaction growth continued in the global fashion brand and OTT merchant segments. Domestically, stable growth in major e-commerce platforms, the addition of new large merchants, and the expansion of transactions in high-value payment sectors such as telecommunications devices supported the results. NHN KCP stated that it has consistently secured a large number of domestic and international merchants based on its stable processing capabilities for large traffic volumes, robust security systems, and advanced financial network integration services. In terms of future growth drivers, the company is accelerating the development of AI agent-based payment infrastructure. By joining the 'AAIF' foundation, which is leading the standardization of global AI payments, NHN KCP is preparing to create next-generation infrastructure where AI agents autonomously process payments on behalf of consumers. The company has completed preparations for commercialization, including the development of related technologies and the establishment of service operation systems, and is in a position to immediately transition to actual services as soon as the regulatory framework is established by the financial authorities. In the stablecoin payment sector, NHN KCP is promoting the construction of a payment-specific mainnet based on a business agreement with the global blockchain platform Avalanche. During the second quarter, the company successfully completed an online and offline payment Proof of Concept (PoC) with its internal employees. On June 23rd, it held a "Stablecoin Payment Demo Day" for merchants and industry professionals in the financial and blockchain sectors, demonstrating features such as administrator page transaction inquiries, hourly on-chain settlements, and blockchain international transfer capabilities
