Thesis
The data supports a picture of a small, loss-making medical device company whose share price has moved well ahead of its reported results. The shares are up 65.2% in three months but down 1.4% over one year, and sit 54.4% below the 52-week high of ₩149,200 and well above the low of ₩31,650. Revenue grew 12.3% in 2025 after a 32.4% fall in 2024, so the sales trend is not yet consistent. Operating losses have persisted every year in the data. The balance sheet looks light on liabilities (liabilities to equity of 8.9%) with cash of ₩10.5B, but free cash flow over the trailing period was negative ₩9.3B, so cash is being used. Over the last 20 trading days, retail investors were net buyers of about ₩17.8B while foreigners sold about ₩16.8B and institutions sold about ₩1.4B. Foreign ownership fell from 9.4% to 6.9% over 60 days. The data does not show what is behind the recent rally; the only news item is a market-tip style article from Money Today. Short balance data is not available.
