What stands out

• Trailing revenue to H1 2026 is about ₩240.2B, with operating income of about ₩18.9B and net income of about ₩12.3B, versus a 2025 full-year net profit of about ₩6.6B.
• Annual results were weak in 2023 and 2024, with large net losses, before the 2025 recovery.
• The close of ₩5,870 is below the 52-week high of ₩9,450, after a 34.5% fall over one month but gains of 63.7% over three months and 47.5% over one year.
• The company's own DCF model gives a base value of ₩8,464 (bear ₩4,977, bull ₩14,341), a model output rather than an analyst target.
• Recent filings include a preliminary earnings release, a half-year report, and several shareholder holding reports, including a change in the largest shareholder's holdings.

What to watch

• The half-year report and filings on the trust-based share acquisition, which the data does not explain in detail.
• Whether the operating margin of 7.9% on a trailing basis holds in the next full-year results.
• Foreign ownership and short-selling data are not available in the pack, so these cannot be assessed.
