Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls Say

Accelerating Revenue Growth

Revenue growth accelerated from low single digits in 2024 to about 21% in 2025 and 30% in TTM. This indicates stronger demand or customer activity across the business and provides a larger base from which the company can spread costs and build earnings over the next several quarters.

Improving Profitability And Returns

Net margin improved to about 3.9% in 2025 and 5.3% in TTM, while ROE rose to roughly 17% in TTM from low single digits in 2022–2023. The improvement signals better earnings efficiency and stronger returns on shareholder capital, although execution must remain consistent.

Lower Relative Leverage

Debt-to-equity declined from above 1.0x in 2022–2024 to about 0.86–0.88x in 2025 and TTM, while equity grew alongside assets. This deleveraging improves resilience and financial flexibility relative to earlier years, even though leverage remains meaningful for a cyclical auto-parts company.

Bears Say

Volatile Operating Profitability

Operating profitability is not yet dependable: margins remain thin, and the latest TTM shows an unusually weak or near-zero operating profit line despite solid net income. This divergence makes earnings quality harder to forecast and could limit durable margin expansion if conditions soften.

Inconsistent Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow was negative in 2024 and again in TTM despite higher net income, while operating cash flow remained positive. The mismatch suggests investment or working-capital demands are absorbing earnings, which can increase reliance on external funding and constrain shareholder returns.

Parent Debt Guarantee Exposure

The parent’s outstanding debt guarantees total KRW 53.89 billion after extending a KRW 17.16 billion guarantee for its German subsidiary through September 2027. These commitments centralize financing risk at the parent and could add pressure if affiliates weaken or funding needs rise.
