Dongil Steelux Co Ltd

Iron & SteelVerified

Dongil Steelux has a market price of 1,249 KRW per share and a market capitalization of 32.63 billion KRW, with a price-to-book ratio of 1.62 and a price-to-tangible-book ratio of 1.62. The company's enterprise value to EBITDA is -17.54, indicating a negative EBITDA, and an enterprise value to revenue of 2.92. The company's liquidity position is rated as medium, with a current ratio of 0.32 and negative free cash flow of -6.22 billion KRW. Profitability metrics show a return on equity of -30.87% and a return on assets of -8.32%, both significantly below the industry median for Iron & Steel producers. The company reported a net loss of 6.22 billion KRW and an operating loss of 4.00 billion KRW, with a gross profit of 1.02 billion KRW. The debt-to-equity ratio of 1.93 indicates a high leverage position, which is a concern for financial stability. The company's revenue is concentrated in the production and sale of bar steels, with no disclosed geographic diversification. The primary customers are in the automotive and machinery industries, which are sensitive to macroeconomic cycles and supply chain disruptions. The company's revenue of 24.05 billion KRW is derived from a single product line, increasing exposure to market volatility. The company's outlook for the current fiscal year is negative, with a net loss expected to continue. The operating cash flow is negative at -649.76 million KRW, and the free cash flow is -6.22 billion KRW. The company's liquidity position is constrained, with cash and equivalents of 1.37 billion KRW and long-term debt of 38.95 billion KRW. The risk assessment indicates a medium liquidity risk and a low dilution risk, but the company's net cash position is negative after subtracting total debt. Recent events include a reported net loss and operating loss, with no disclosed material events in the latest filings or transcripts. The company's last actual EPS was 286.64 KRW, but this is not indicative of current performance given the net loss. The company's risk profile is elevated due to its negative operating and net income, high leverage, and constrained liquidity. The risk assessment highlights the negative net cash position as a key flag, and the company's reliance on a single product line increases vulnerability to market shifts.
