Past years and projection
Grey columns are reported results from the annual reports (after-tax EBIT at the model's tax rate), so you can check the growth and margin assumptions against the past. Years 1–5 are the model.

Cross-check: what the market has paid before
For cyclical businesses, analysts check a DCF against the multiples the stock has traded at through past cycles. Price / book is the usual anchor for them: P/E looks highest at the bottom of a cycle, when earnings are smallest, and lowest at the top. The price each band would give today:
| Low | Typical | High | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price / book (book value ₩6,726 a share)Now 0.38× | ₩3,0820.46× | ₩3,9820.59× | ₩6,2270.93× |
| Price / earnings (last 12 months: ₩545 a share)Now 4.66× | ₩3,2896.04× | ₩4,2877.87× | ₩8,15115.0× |
| P/E on run-rate earnings (Q2 2026 × 4: ₩588 a share)Now 4.32× | ₩3,5476.04× | ₩4,6237.87× | ₩8,79015.0× |
Low, typical and high are the 10th percentile, middle and 90th percentile of month-end multiples since 2021, each against the latest report out by then, per share at today's share count; loss years and P/E above 100 are left out. Run-rate earnings are one quarter × 4, not a forecast. Model estimate based on the assumptions shown. Not a price target and not a buy or sell signal.
