NAVER Stock (035420.KS): Price, Tickers, US Listings and Research
NAVER (called NHN Corporation until 2013) runs Korea's No. 1 internet search portal and earns most of its revenue from search and display advertising and e-commerce (Smart Store, brand stores, KREAM and US resale marketplace Poshmark), plus Naver Pay fintech, webtoons through Nasdaq-listed subsidiary WEBTOON Entertainment, and cloud and AI services built on its HyperCLOVA X model. In 2025, revenue was KRW 12.04tn: Search Platform 34.6%, Commerce 30.6%, Content 15.8%, Fintech 14.1% and Enterprise 4.9%. In July 2026 it agreed to sell about US$1bn of new shares to NVIDIA as part of an AI data-centre ('AI factory') partnership, and its fintech arm Naver Financial plans to make digital-asset platform operator Dunamu a wholly owned subsidiary through a share swap now scheduled for 2027-03-31.

No ADR or GDR: EDGAR full-text search returns no F-6 registration for NAVER, and NAVER's own EDGAR record (CIK 1730798) holds only filings it made as an investor (LINE Corp tender offer 2020, Poshmark 2022, WEBTOON Entertainment 2024); the London Stock Exchange instrument search returns nothing, and the Luxembourg Stock Exchange search shows only a Deutsche Bank note referencing NAVER shares. NAVER's majority-owned subsidiary WEBTOON Entertainment Inc. trades on Nasdaq as WBTN, which is a separate company, not a NAVER share line (checked 2026-10-18).

Earnings dates
Latest results date on file: 2Q26 on Aug 7, 2026.

Owning it from abroad
NAVER has no ADR or GDR, so the main route is KRX shares (035420) through a broker with Korea market access or Korea-focused ETFs such as EWY (check current holdings); an OTC symbol, NHNCF, appears on US data sites but its status and liquidity are unconfirmed, and Nasdaq-listed WEBTOON Entertainment (WBTN) is a NAVER subsidiary, not a NAVER share.
