Synthesis
Yest Co Ltd (122640.KQ) is a technology company operating in the Semiconductor Equipment & Testing industry. The firm primarily engages in semiconductor-related activities within the broader Technology Equipment sector. Specific details regarding its operating segments, headquarters location, and primary stock exchange listing are not available in the provided data. Consequently, the company is described at the industry level without further geographic or segmental breakdown.
Yest Co Ltd has a market capitalization of 66.05 trillion KRW and a price-to-book ratio of 5.0, indicating a premium valuation relative to its book value. The company's liquidity position is medium risk, with negative net cash after subtracting total debt, and a current ratio of 1.42, suggesting moderate short-term solvency. Free cash flow is negative at -5.69 billion KRW, and operating cash flow is also negative at -7.44 billion KRW, signaling cash flow constraints.
Profitability metrics show a return on equity of -0.44% and a return on assets of -0.25%, both below the industry median for Semiconductor Equipment & Testing. Gross profit of 19.53 billion KRW is outperformed by revenue of 87.06 billion KRW, but operating income of 3.84 billion KRW is modest given the scale of operations. The company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.52 suggests a moderate leverage position.
Geographic and segment exposure is not disclosed in the available data, but the company operates in a global industry with demand concentrated in the technology sector. Revenue concentration by region or product line is not specified in the input data.
The company's revenue in the latest period was 87.06 billion KRW, below the analyst mean estimate of 148.00 billion KRW. The outlook for the current fiscal year is uncertain, with no clear direction provided in the input data. The negative net income of -576.25 million KRW and the negative EPS of -28.00 KRW suggest a challenging earnings environment.
Risk factors include liquidity constraints and the potential for dilution, though the latter is currently assessed as low. The company's negative operating cash flow and free cash flow raise concerns about its ability to fund operations and capital expenditures without external financing. No recent events or filings are disclosed in the input data to provide additional context on risk exposure.
Analyst price targets are uniformly set at 31,000 KRW, below the current market price of 32,100 KRW. The mean EPS estimate of 1,051 KRW is significantly higher than the actual EPS of -28 KRW, indicating a wide gap between expectations and performance. No recent transcripts or filings are available to explain the discrepancy.
