Hyundai Motor’s third-quarter earnings were a major disappointment, said KTB Investment and Securities on Oct.
Its operating profit in the period tumbled 74 percent on-year to 288.9 billion won, widely missing market consensus. This was mainly due to weak currencies of emerging countries and quality setbacks, said analyst Lee Han-jun.
