HYBE Achieves Record Q2 Revenue and Profit Driven by BTS 'ARIRANG' World Tour

South Korean entertainment company HYBE, home to BTS, reported record-breaking financial results for the second quarter of 2026, with revenue more than doubling year-over-year to approximately $967 million. Operating profit swung back to $114 million, largely attributed to the success of BTS's 'ARIRANG' world tour, which launched in April. Concert revenue surged by 243.3% year-over-year, and BTS's fifth studio album, 'ARIRANG,' led recorded music revenue growth.
