Purit퓨릿

Purit's profitability has improved over recent years, but its share price remains well below its 52-week high and the filings include an embezzlement-related update.

Purit makes high-purity chemicals, mainly solvents for semiconductor manufacturing, with semiconductor products about 76% of 2025 sales. Trailing twelve-month revenue to H1 2026 was ₩155.9B with operating income of ₩22.1B and net income of ₩16.7B, and the company reports no borrowings. The shares closed at ₩8,000 on 2026-10-22, roughly 40% below the 52-week high of ₩13,400.

What stands out

• 2025 revenue was ₩142.5B, up 16.3% from 2024, and operating margin rose to 12.1% from 11.4% the year before.
• Trailing net margin is 10.7% and ROE is 16%, with liabilities at 13.6% of equity and cash of ₩28.7B.
• Valuation shown is P/E 8.3 and P/B 1.2, against a DCF base value of ₩15,930, bear ₩10,515 and bull ₩24,722 at an 8% rate; these are model outputs, not forecasts.
• Share price returns were 0.1% over one month, 4.6% over three months and -4.1% over one year.
• Foreign ownership eased slightly to 7% from 7.1% sixty days earlier, and 20-day flows show institutions net buying while foreign and retail investors were net sellers.

What to watch

• An August 31 filing gave a progress update on embezzlement and breach of trust allegations; the data does not describe the details or outcome, so check the filing directly.
• The Q3 2026 quarterly report and any updates on the new Yesan plant site and the April 2026 new facility investment, which the data does not quantify.
• Revenue and margin trends, since the 2025 growth rate may not be repeated and the data gives no segment or customer concentration detail beyond semiconductor sales share.
