Thesis

The data supports an earnings recovery. Operating income over the trailing twelve months is ₩30.0B, versus ₩12.0B in 2025 and a ₩19.4B loss in 2024. ROE has risen to 15.9% from 2.8%.

The data is less clear on quality and durability. Net income (₩43.9B) is higher than operating income (₩30.0B), which suggests non-operating items contributed, though the data does not say which. Free cash flow is negative at ₩11.7B, and borrowings of ₩130.3B are well above cash of ₩25.1B.

The share price has fallen 13.4% in a month and 9.5% in three months, yet it is still up 12.2% over one year. Foreign ownership dropped from 25.5% to 20.3% in 60 days, and foreigners were net sellers of about ₩13.6B over 20 days while retail investors were net buyers of about ₩12.2B. No news headlines are available.

Business overview

Revenue has been uneven: ₩138.0B in 2021, ₩239.5B in 2022 (+73.5%), ₩305.0B in 2023 (+27.4%), ₩257.8B in 2024 (-15.5%) and ₩319.6B in 2025 (+24.0%). The data does not describe products or customers.

Financial analysis

These figures come from filed financial statements. Trailing revenue to H1 2026 is ₩363.5B, operating income ₩30.0B (8.2% margin) and net income ₩43.9B (12.1% margin). ROE is 15.9%.

For 2025, revenue was ₩319.6B, operating income ₩12.0B (3.7% margin) and net income ₩7.5B. In 2024 the company posted an operating loss of ₩19.4B and net loss of ₩3.0B. The best earlier margin was 6.4% in 2022.

Liabilities-to-equity is 89.6%. Cash is ₩25.1B against borrowings of ₩130.3B. Trailing free cash flow is negative at ₩11.7B, so the profit recovery has not yet shown up as free cash.

Valuation

The stock trades at a P/E of 13.9, P/B of 2.1 and P/S of 1.7, with a dividend yield of 0.4%. Enterprise value is about ₩716.2B. EV/EBITDA is not available.

Against its own history, the P/E is far below year-end readings of 85.6 (2025), 140.7 (2023) and 45.6 (2022), though those were on depressed earnings. P/B of 2.1 compares with 2.4 in 2025, 1.5 in 2024 and 6.1 in 2021.

Among listed comparables, P/E ranges from 8.4 (Samsung Electronics) to 40.3 (RFHIC), with Hanwha Vision at 16.8 and LG Electronics at 26.6. P/B ranges from 1.0 to 5.0. Intellian sits within these ranges.

The valuation model estimate is not available for this company, so no comparison with the share price can be made.

Catalysts

  • Three filings on major sales or supply contracts (two amended) between August and October 2026, most recently on 2026-10-08, show ongoing contract activity, though the data does not give their size.
  • The half-year report for June 2026 was filed with an added attachment on 2026-08-14 and showed the improved trailing profitability.
  • A report on the results of a disposal of treasury shares was filed on 2026-07-14.
  • A 5%+ holding report was filed on 2026-07-29, and several insider shareholding reports were filed on 2026-07-09.

Risks

  • Free cash flow is negative at ₩11.7B while borrowings of ₩130.3B far exceed cash of ₩25.1B.
  • Earnings have been volatile, with an operating loss in 2024 and margins ranging from -7.5% to 8.2% over five years.
  • Net income exceeds operating income, so part of the profit may not come from core operations.
  • Foreign ownership fell from 25.5% to 20.3% in 60 days, and the price is down 13.4% in a month, showing selling pressure.
  • The shares trade well below the 52-week high of ₩180,200, indicating large price swings.

Closing view

The filings show a clear improvement in profitability, with higher margins and ROE, and the current P/E of 13.9 is well below its own year-end history. Against that, cash flow is negative, debt exceeds cash, part of the profit appears to be non-operating, and foreign investors have been reducing holdings. With no model estimate or news available, the data supports a picture of a recovering but still uneven business whose durability of earnings is not yet established.

Model estimate of fair value

The valuation model has no estimate for this company yet (not enough data, or no positive value with the base case).
