Textiles & Leather GoodsVerified

The company's capital structure is highly leveraged, with a debt-to-equity ratio of 3.12, indicating significant reliance on debt financing. Despite a current ratio of 0.5, which suggests limited short-term liquidity, the firm reported an operating cash flow of 210,097,417,110 KRW, indicating some capacity to service obligations. However, the firm's free cash flow is negative at -61,187,230,419.9999 KRW, and capital expenditures are substantial at -225,126,378,540 KRW, signaling ongoing investment in operations. Profitability metrics are weak, with a return on equity of -2.68% and a return on assets of -0.55%, both significantly below industry norms. The company's net income is negative at -21,639,256,730 KRW, reflecting operational challenges and cost pressures. Gross profit of 353,206,642,300 KRW and operating income of 157,433,130,040 KRW suggest some margin resilience, but these figures are insufficient to offset broader financial pressures. Geographic and segment exposure is not explicitly detailed in the available data, but the firm's revenue concentration is implied to be within the textile and leather goods industry. The firm's revenue of 3,283,044,948,860 KRW is derived from a single primary business line, which may increase exposure to sector-specific risks. Growth trajectory is uncertain, with no specific revenue growth rates provided in the data. However, the firm's negative net income and high debt levels suggest a challenging operating environment. Analysts have provided a mean price target of 272,000.00 KRW and a median price target of 280,000.00 KRW, with a mean recommendation of 1.50, indicating a generally positive outlook despite current financial difficulties. Risk factors include medium liquidity risk and a negative net cash position after subtracting total debt. The firm's dilution risk is assessed as low, but the high debt-to-equity ratio and negative free cash flow suggest potential for future dilution if capital needs increase. Analysts have not identified any immediate dilution pressures, but the firm's capital structure remains a concern. Recent events include the publication of the latest financial data, which highlights the firm's operational and financial challenges. No specific filings or transcripts are detailed in the available data, but the firm's financial performance and analyst estimates suggest ongoing scrutiny from the market.
