Seowon Co Ltd

Seowon Co Ltd operates with a debt-to-equity ratio of 3.9, indicating a capital structure heavily reliant on debt financing. The company's liquidity position is characterized by a current ratio of 1.06, suggesting limited short-term liquidity cushion. Despite a negative net income of -5,639,133,990 KRW, the company generated free cash flow of 1,398,991,440 KRW, which may support operational flexibility. Profitability metrics show a return on equity of -3.87% and a return on assets of -0.52%, both below the industry median for Specialty Mining & Metals, indicating underperformance relative to peers. Gross profit of 97,484,340,640 KRW represents 5.7% of revenue, which is below the industry average for non-ferrous metal manufacturers. The company's revenue is concentrated in a single business segment focused on non-ferrous metal manufacturing, with no disclosed geographic diversification beyond South Korea. This concentration increases exposure to regional economic and regulatory risks. Outlook for the current fiscal year shows a revenue decline, with no disclosed growth trajectory for the next fiscal year. The company's capital expenditure of -8,811,316,260 KRW indicates a reduction in investment, which may affect long-term growth potential. Risk factors include a medium liquidity risk due to a current ratio of 1.06 and a negative net cash position after subtracting total debt. The company's dilution risk is assessed as low, with no near-term pressure from share issuance or convertible instruments. Recent events include a reported last actual EPS of 67.00 KRW, which contrasts with the company's net loss, suggesting potential discrepancies in earnings performance or reporting.
