Hyundai Steel Co

Iron & SteelVerified

Hyundai Steel Co's capital structure is characterized by a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.51, indicating a moderate level of leverage. The company's liquidity position is assessed as medium, with a current ratio of 1.53, suggesting it has sufficient short-term assets to cover its short-term liabilities. However, the company's net cash position is negative after subtracting total debt, which could pose a liquidity risk. In terms of profitability, Hyundai Steel Co reported a net loss of -6,916,448,650 KRW for the period, with a return on equity of -0.0004 and a return on assets of -0.0002. These figures indicate that the company is not generating returns for its shareholders or effectively utilizing its assets to generate profit. The operating income of 107,152,893,230 KRW is significantly lower than the gross profit of 1,504,318,890,740 KRW, suggesting high operating expenses or inefficiencies in the company's operations. The company's revenue is concentrated in a single business segment, as disclosed in its financial statements. There is no detailed breakdown of geographic exposure, but the company is based in South Korea, and its operations are likely centered in the region. This concentration could expose the company to regional economic and political risks. Hyundai Steel Co's growth trajectory is uncertain, as the company reported a net loss for the period. The company's capital expenditure of -1,519,509,587,610 KRW indicates significant investment in its operations, which could be a sign of expansion or modernization efforts. However, the negative net income suggests that these investments have not yet translated into profitability. The risk assessment for Hyundai Steel Co highlights a medium liquidity risk and a low dilution risk. The company's negative net cash position after subtracting total debt is a key flag, indicating potential challenges in meeting short-term obligations. The dilution risk is assessed as low, suggesting that the company is not expected to issue additional shares that could dilute existing shareholders' equity. Recent events and filings for Hyundai Steel Co include analyst estimates that provide a range of price targets and recommendations. The mean price target is 50,538.46 KRW, with a median of 50,000.00 KRW, and the high and low price targets are 62,000.00 KRW and 36,000.00 KRW, respectively. The mean recommendation is 1.72, with 6 strong-buy, 11 buy, and 1 hold ratings, indicating a generally positive outlook from analysts.
