what happened

SK Innovation's operating profit in the third quarter rose from the previous quarter, TradingView reports. The gain came mainly from refining, base oil production and power generation.

Revenue edged lower, and the battery business stayed loss-making, though the losses narrowed. For the fourth quarter, the company expects supportive conditions in refining and aromatics markets, while flagging volatility and seasonal risks.

why it matters

For the market, this shows that refining margins remain a key support for the Korean petrochemical holding's profit. Outlook for refining and aromatics matters to sector investors, while the weak battery unit still weighs on overall results.
