LG Electronics is a global electronics company whose reported scale can be measured through consolidated finances, business segments, employment, emissions and circularity programs.

LG Electronics Financial Statistics and Sales Trends
LG Electronics’ consolidated sales increased across the supplied 2023–2025 series, while operating income moved lower over the same period. These are reported financial-statement figures for the consolidated company, stated in KRW billions.
| Period | Consolidated sales | Operating income | Net income |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | KRW 82,263 billion | KRW 3,653 billion | KRW 1,151 billion |
| 2024 | KRW 87,728 billion | KRW 3,420 billion | KRW 591 billion |
| 2025 | KRW 89,201 billion | KRW 2,478 billion | KRW 1,220 billion |
Source: Financial information | Investor relations | LG Global. These are consolidated LG Electronics figures, not individual product-category results.
The 2024 consolidated result combines higher sales than 2023 with lower operating income and net income in the reported figures. In 2025, net income was higher than in either supplied prior year, while operating income remained below the 2023 and 2024 amounts.
LG Electronics Business-Segment Revenue and Operating Results
LG’s 2024 segment figures show how different parts of the company contribute to reported revenue and operating results. Segment measures are company-reported and should not be treated as a uniform profitability calculation across all business lines.
| 2024 business | Revenue | Operating result |
|---|---|---|
| Home Appliance & Air Solution | KRW 33.2 trillion | KRW 2.04 trillion profit |
| Home Entertainment | KRW 15.23 trillion | KRW 315.9 billion profit |
| Vehicle component Solutions | KRW 10.62 trillion | KRW 115.7 billion profit |
| Business Solutions | KRW 5.69 trillion | KRW 193.1 billion operating loss |
Source: LG Announces Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2024 Financial Results. The source reports Home Appliance & Air Solution and Vehicle component Solutions as having nine consecutive years of revenue growth through 2024; this is a growth streak, not a supplied annual growth-rate series.
The Home Appliance & Air Solution subscription business approached KRW 2 trillion in revenue in 2024, and its revenue increased by more than 75% year over year. Because LG describes the amount as nearing KRW 2 trillion, it is an estimate rather than an exact audited figure.
Home Entertainment’s webOS-based advertising and content revenue exceeded KRW 1 trillion in 2024. The exact amount is not supplied, so the figure should be read as a threshold statement rather than a precise total.
LG Electronics Cash Flow and Financial Structure
Cash-flow and balance-sheet statistics add a liquidity and financial-structure view to the sales figures. The cash-flow values below are consolidated statement figures, while the asset and liability values are year-end 2024 balance-sheet measures.
| Measure | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Operating cash flow | KRW 5,914 billion | KRW 3,843 billion | KRW 4,281 billion |
| Cash at year end | — | KRW 7,573 billion | KRW 8,770 billion |
Source: Financial information | Investor relations | LG Global. A dash indicates that the supplied facts did not include that year’s value for the measure.
At the end of 2024, current assets were KRW 33,924 billion and non-current assets were KRW 31,706 billion. On the liabilities side, current liabilities were KRW 27,307 billion and non-current liabilities were KRW 13,110 billion.
These balance-sheet categories are not interchangeable with cash or operating cash flow: current assets and liabilities cover broader accounting populations than the immediately available cash figure. The 2025 cash figure was KRW 8,770 billion at year end, while 2025 operating cash flow was KRW 4,281 billion during the year.
LG Electronics Workforce and Employment Data
LG’s workforce statistics use defined populations rather than one universal headcount. The 2023 average employee figure is an average monthly employee count, while the other measures refer to parental leave, permanent employees or position groups.
| Workforce measure | 2023 result | Population or definition |
|---|---|---|
| Average employees | 70,632 people | Average monthly employee count |
| Voluntary retirement rate | 7.8% | Permanent employees |
| Voluntary retirees | 5,532 people | Permanent employees |
| Female share of R&D-related positions | 16.1% | R&D-related positions |
| Female share of management positions | 11.8% | All management positions |
Source: 2023-2024 LG Electronics Sustainability Report. These populations are not interchangeable headcounts or rates of the entire workforce.
In 2023, 599 employees took parental leave, including 238 men and 361 women. During the same reporting period, 520 employees returned to work after parental leave, including 245 men and 275 women.
The report recorded 375 employees in the 12-month post-leave retention cohort in 2023. That cohort counts employees employed for 12 months after returning and is not the same population as all parental-leave users.
LG Electronics Greenhouse-Gas and Energy Statistics
LG reports both direct emissions and indirect electricity emissions, with Scope 2 shown under location-based and market-based accounting where specified. Those methods should not be combined as if they were identical measures.
| Emissions measure | 2023 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Scope 1 | 208,947 tCO2eq | 225,263 tCO2eq |
| Location-based Scope 2 | 710,427 tCO2eq | 761,792 tCO2eq |
| Market-based Scope 1 + Scope 2 | 874,231 tCO2eq | 906,576 tCO2eq |
| Market-based GHG intensity | 1.06 tCO2eq per KRW 100 million | 1.03 tCO2eq per KRW 100 million |
Source: Carbon neutrality | Sustainability | LG Global. The inventory covers global LG Electronics operations, and the intensity denominator is company revenue expressed in KRW 100 million.
LG’s sustainability-report summary describes 2024 Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions as approximately 910,000 tCO2eq. That is a rounded estimate; the detailed table reports 906,576 tCO2eq on a market-based basis.
At Changwon Smart Park in South Korea, LG reports a 30% energy-efficiency improvement compared with conventional factories. Its energy-storage system can replace up to 15% of daily electricity consumption, a maximum stated site capability rather than a company-wide measured replacement rate.
LG Electronics Circularity, Collection and Sustainability Targets
The circularity figures cover production-site waste, used-electronics collection and recycled plastic, while the targets cover future environmental performance. Observed outcomes, estimates, maximum capabilities and forecasts are kept distinct.
LG’s global production sites achieved a 97.4% waste recycling rate in 2024. This is a production-site waste measure, not a household recycling rate or a claim that all collected products were recycled into new products.
LG collected 532,630 metric tons of used electronics in 2024 through 91 collection locations in 56 countries. Its cumulative collection exceeded 5 million metric tons from 2006 through 2024; the cumulative amount is reported as over 5 million tons rather than as an exact figure.
LG increased the recycled plastic used in its products by 36% year over year in 2024. The supplied measure gives the percentage increase but not the absolute tonnage of recycled plastic.
| Sustainability measure | Reported result or target | Status and scope |
|---|---|---|
| Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions | 878,000 tCO2eq by 2030 | Forecast target for global operations |
| Scope 1 and Scope 2 reduction | 54.6% from 2017 by 2030 | Forecast corporate target |
| Product carbon emissions | 19.4% lower in 2024 than 2020 | Observed product-use-phase result for key categories |
| Scope 3 intensity | 20% lower per functional unit by 2030 | Forecast target across seven key product categories |
| Production-site waste recycling | 95% by 2030 | Forecast target for global production sites |
Source: LG’s Latest Sustainability Report Highlights Progress Toward 2030 Environmental Goals. The 2030 Scope 3 goal is an intensity-style product target, not an absolute company-wide Scope 3 target.
LG’s 2030 emissions goal is a forecast relative to a 2017 baseline, while the 2024 product-carbon result is a reported comparison with 2020. The 2030 waste-recycling goal is 95% at global production sites, compared with the reported 97.4% rate in 2024.
The Comfort Kit accessibility initiative included 14 products in the 2024–2025 report. That count measures products in the initiative, not the number of users or an accessibility outcome.
