The revenue increased by 16.1 billion won compared to the previous year, surpassing 100 billion won for the first time in 8 years.
CEO Kim Yusik stated that they will continue sustainable growth through artist development and business diversification.
FNC Entertainment recently announced that it achieved a revenue of 102.4 billion won in 2025, with an operational loss of 200 million won. This marks an increase of 16.1 billion won from the previous year, surpassing the 100 billion won milestone for the first time since 2017. This growth also reflects a remarkable improvement in operating profit by 4 billion won compared to last year, indicating a strengthening profit trend.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, FNC recorded a revenue of 35 billion won and an operating profit of 900 million won, continuing its streak of positive operational performance from the second and third quarters. Annually, operating profits have improved by 3 to 5 billion won every year since 2022.
Although net losses increased this year, it was primarily due to valuation losses on convertible bonds related to rising stock prices, representing an accounting loss rather than actual cash outflows. CEO Kim Yusik noted that the positive effects of FNC’s strategic focuses are beginning to reflect in the company’s financial performance, with indications that music and drama production businesses will soon yield tangible results.
FNC Entertainment's recent growth is closely related to shifting trends within the music and drama industries. Notably, the musical achievements of artists and the expansion of their global fan base have had a positive impact on the company's revenue. Given the increasing importance of fandom in the entertainment sector, FNC has effectively harnessed this momentum by maintaining close communication with its artists.
The company's strategic focus on selective business models has contributed significantly to its revenue increase, yielding positive outcomes in both drama and music projects. The growth of younger artists has particularly played a vital role in FNC's music division, with their success directly impacting the company's earnings.
As CEO Kim Yusik noted, FNC is set to continue its commitment to supporting not only the growth of existing artists but also the discovery and development of new talents, which is essential for the future sustainability of the company.
