Model estimate based on the assumptions shown. Not a price target and not a buy or sell signal. This is not financial advice.

Why the model and the price differ

The model is 337% away from today's price. A gap this size usually means the market expects something the past figures don't show yet, or the model leaves something out. What we can see:

  • To match today's price of ₩1,416, the model needs an operating margin of 2.0% every year (it uses 3.4%).

Treat the model as a starting point: change the assumptions to the story you believe, and compare with the multiples check below.

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:

LowTypicalHigh
Price / book (book value ₩7,283 a share)Now 0.19×₩4,7500.65×₩7,6931.06×₩13,9321.91×
P/E on run-rate earnings (Q4 2025 × 4: ₩177 a share)Now 7.98×₩1,3387.54×₩2,55714.4×₩8,02645.2×

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.
