Financials Market: Netmarble posts $505.1M revenue in Q2 2026
Netmarble reported $505.1 million in revenue for Q2 2026, a 4% year‑over‑year and 15% quarter‑over‑quarter increase driven by existing titles and new launches such as The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin and SOL: Enchant. Net profit was $137.4 million, up 27% Y/Y, while operating profit fell 21% to $54 million. EBITDA totaled $75.5 million (down 15% Y/Y and 34% Q/Q) with an EBITDA margin near 15%. North America accounted for 39% of revenue, Korea 22% and Europe 13%. RPGs made up 42% of revenue, casual games 35%, MMORPGs 17% and other genres 6%. Netmarble said three new cross‑platform titles are planned for H2 2026, and CEO Kim Byung‑gyu emphasised multi‑platform expansion and strengthening live operations to stabilise earnings.
Company earnings for a major game developer show revenue and net profit growth and outline upcoming cross‑platform launches; relevant to gaming monetization and in‑app revenue trends but not industry‑shifting for broader AdTech/MarTech.
