Thesis

The data supports a picture of a highly profitable company: trailing twelve-month operating margin is 42.5%, net margin 40.3% and ROE 34.5%. Liabilities are only 18.0% of equity, and free cash flow is ₩122.3B. However, revenue growth has slowed sharply, from 251.5% in 2024 to 3.2% in 2025, and trailing revenue of ₩551.3B is slightly below the 2025 figure of ₩576.7B. The share price has risen 20.9% over three months and 108.6% over one year, while earnings have not grown at that pace, so the multiple has expanded. The price is also about 41.7% below its 52-week high of ₩426,000. The data does not include investor flows, foreign ownership, short balance or news headlines, so it cannot show who is driving the moves.
