YeaRimDang Publishing예림당

YeaRimDang Publishing is loss-making at the operating level in the latest twelve months, though its share price has been roughly flat over three months and down 11.4% over a year.

YeaRimDang publishes children's books, led by the "Why?" series, and earns licensing income from overseas partners. Revenue has fallen for several years, and the trailing twelve months to H1 2026 show revenue of ₩10.5B and an operating loss of ₩1.1B, with negative free cash flow of ₩38.2B. The company holds ₩34.5B in cash against ₩1.6B in borrowings, and its share price is ₩2,730, well below the 52-week high of ₩4,035.

What stands out

• Trailing revenue is ₩10.5B, and operating income is negative at ₩1.1B (-10.8% margin), compared with a 2025 operating loss of ₩1.4B.
• Net income of ₩9.5B in the trailing period, and ₩126B in 2025, is far above operating results; the data does not explain the source of these non-operating gains, so they should not be read as operating strength.
• Revenue fell 13.1% in 2025 and has declined in each year shown since 2021, when operating margin was 13.2%.
• Free cash flow is -₩38.2B, which is large relative to the company's ₩34.5B cash balance; the data does not say how this gap is being funded.
• Recent filings include a Major Matters Report on an acquisition of shares in another company (24 Aug 2026), a half-year report (14 Aug 2026) and a cash dividend decision (1 Jul 2026). The data shows a 0% dividend yield and does not give dividend amounts. No recent news headlines are in the data.

What to watch

• Details of the August 2026 share acquisition, including the target company, price and how it is funded; the data does not include these.
• Whether the negative free cash flow and operating losses continue in the next reporting period, and what drove the large 2025 net income figure.
• The size and timing of the declared cash dividend, which the data does not specify.
