Hanil Chemical IND한일화학

Hanil Chemical remains loss-making on a trailing basis, with a very low valuation and a share price that has risen over three months but fallen over a year.

Hanil Chemical makes zinc oxide, paints and recycled plastics, and its trailing twelve-month figures to H1 2026 show revenue of about ₩134.5B, an operating loss of about ₩6.1B and a net loss of about ₩12.4B. The shares trade near ₩7,890, with a market capitalisation of about ₩27.7B, a price-to-book ratio of 0.3 and no dividend.

What stands out

• Revenue has been broadly flat for several years, at about ₩114B to ₩156B since 2021, while operating results have swung between profit and loss.
• The company reported losses in 2023 and 2025, with a 2025 net loss of about ₩18.3B, after a profit of about ₩5.0B in 2024.
• Borrowings of about ₩29.0B are larger than cash of about ₩7.5B, and liabilities are 56.4% of equity.
• Trailing free cash flow is negative at about ₩-2.5B, and the price-to-earnings ratio is not meaningful because earnings are negative.
• Foreign ownership is small at 2.4%, and the 20-day flows data shows retail investors as net sellers while foreign investors were net buyers.

What to watch

• The full-year 2026 results and the next quarterly report, since the trailing figures are still in loss.
• Whether the company's borrowings and negative free cash flow change, given the loss-making trend.
• The data contains no recent news headlines, so any new company announcements would need to be checked in the filings directly.
