Global tech companies saw their earnings in Korea surge last year, according to regulatory filings made earlier this week. The earnings of local subsidiaries of tech giants such as Google, Facebook, Netflix and Tesla were unveiled for the first time after revised regulations went into effect last November.

이번주 초에 나온 공시에 따르면, 글로벌 테크 기업들은 지난해 한국에서 수익이 급증했다. 구글·페이스북·넷플릭스·테슬라 등 거대 테크 기업들의 국내 현지법인의 실적은 지난해 11월 주식회사 등의 외부감사에 관한 법률(신외감법)의 전면 개정·시행 이후 처음으로 공개됐다.


Google Korea saw its 2020 net profit skyrocket 741 percent year-on-year to 6.18 billion won ($5.53 million), while operating profits surged 52.9 percent to 15.59 billion won. The regulatory filing showed Google's earnings mostly came from marketing related to advertisements.

구글코리아는 2020년 당기순이익이 61억8000만원으로 전년 동기 대비 741% 급증했고 영업이익은 155억9000만원으로 52.9% 급증했다. 공시에 따르면 구글의 수익은 대부분 광고와 관련된 마케팅 부문에서 나온 것으로 나타났다.


Facebook Korea's regulatory April 5 filing showed the company's operating profit soar 553 percent in 2020 year-on-year to 11.77 billion won, as its net profit jumped 314 percent to 6.33 billion won.

페이스북코리아가 4월 5일 발표한 2020년도 실적은 순이익이 63억3000만원으로 314% 급증했고, 영업이익은 117억7000 만원으로 전년 동기 대비 553% 급증했다.


Netflix Services Korea saw 2020 sales surge 123.54 percent to 415.45 billion, reaping operating profits of 8.82 billion won, up 295 percent, and a net profit of 6.33 billion won, a jump of 427.5 percent.

넷플릭스서비시스코리아는 2020년도 매출이 123.54% 급증한 4154억5000만원, 영업이익은 295% 증가한 88억2000만원, 순이익은 427.5% 급증한 63억3000만원으로 늘었다.


The stellar performance was backed by a surge in subscribers amid the COVID-19 pandemic, as more and more people sought online-based entertainment at home. The number of Netflix Korea's subscribers exceeded 3 million as of the end of last year, up from 2 million in October 2019.

이 눈부신 실적은 코로나19 팬데믹 속에 점점 더 많은 사람들이 집에서 온라인 기반의 엔터테인먼트를 찾으며 급증한 가입자 수에 힘입은 것이다. 넷플릭스코리아의 가입자 수는 지난해 말 기준 300만명을 넘어 2019년 10월 200만 명에 비해 크게 늘었다.


Tesla Korea saw 2020 sales surge 295 percent year-on-year to 716.2 billion won, bring in operating profits of 10.78 billion won (a 429 percent rise) and a net profit of 7.98 billion won (up 513 percent).

테슬라코리아는 2020년도 매출이 전년 동기 대비 295% 급증한 7162억원, 영업이익 107억8000만원(429% 상승), 당기순이익 79억8000만원(513% 상승)을 기록했다.


Tesla's huge earnings boost came from sales of 11,829 vehicles last year, a massive increase from 2,430 in 2019.

테슬라가 지난해 1만1829대를 판매한 데 따른 실적 상승폭은 2019년(2430대)보다 크게 늘었다.
