Korea’s cathode and precursor sector showed improving 2Q26 earnings, but the recovery in actual shipments remained uneven. High-nickel demand was concentrated in selected projects, while higher ASPs, inventory valuation effects and non-battery businesses also supported profits. SMM expects Korea’s ternary cathode output to fall 4.8% YoY in 2026, with LFP-based ESS and overseas precursor sales emerging as key H2 growth drivers.
