Frequently Asked Questions

What does a 297% year-over-year increase in operating profit actually mean?

In Q1 2025, Mirae Asset Securities posted operating profit of approximately $234M. This quarter, that figure jumped to $927M — roughly four times higher. A 297% increase means the profit grew by nearly three times the original base amount.

What is the difference between consolidated and standalone earnings?

Consolidated earnings combine the financials of Mirae Asset Securities and all its subsidiaries and overseas entities. Standalone earnings reflect only the parent company. In this disclosure, standalone operating profit was approximately $288M — significantly below the consolidated figure of $927M — indicating that overseas operations and affiliates contribute substantially to overall performance.

These are preliminary results — could the numbers change later?

Yes. Preliminary results are figures compiled internally by the company before a formal external audit review. Some adjustments may occur during the audit process depending on accounting treatment. However, material revisions to preliminary earnings are relatively uncommon.
