Synthesis
Hyosung Heavy Industries Corp (298040.KS) is an electric utility company operating within the Utilities sector. The firm is headquartered in South Korea and is primarily listed on the Korea Exchange (KRX). Specific details regarding its operating segments and geographic revenue mix are not available.
Hyosung Heavy Industries maintains a capital structure characterized by a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.36 and a current ratio of 1.05. The balance sheet shows total assets of 7.23 trillion KRW against total liabilities of 4.88 trillion KRW, resulting in total equity of 2.35 trillion KRW. Long-term debt stands at 852.04 billion KRW, while cash and equivalents are 215.68 billion KRW. The risk assessment flags that net cash is negative after subtracting total debt, indicating a medium liquidity risk profile.
Profitability metrics show a return on equity of 21.47% and a return on assets of 6.99%. The company generated net income of 519.89 billion KRW on revenue of 5.97 trillion KRW, yielding an operating income of 746.97 billion KRW. Gross profit was 1.25 trillion KRW. These returns are evaluated against the backdrop of a high valuation, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 53.92 and a price-to-book ratio of 11.58.
Segment and geographic data are not provided in the available source documents, preventing a detailed analysis of revenue concentration or regional exposure. The analysis relies on aggregate financial figures for the latest normalized period.
Growth trajectory analysis is limited by the absence of historical periods data in the input. The current revenue base of 5.97 trillion KRW serves as the baseline for valuation, with an EV/Revenue multiple of 4.46 and an EV/EBITDA multiple of 34.97. Free cash flow stands at 358.75 billion KRW, derived from operating cash flow of 493.01 billion KRW and capital expenditures of 178.51 billion KRW.
Risk factors include medium liquidity risk and low dilution risk. The key flag notes negative net cash after debt subtraction. The company has 9.31 million shares outstanding, with no difference between basic and diluted shares, supporting the low dilution assessment.
Recent events are reflected in analyst estimates, with a mean price target of 4.21 million KRW and a median target of 4.45 million KRW. The mean recommendation is 1.72, driven by 5 strong-buy and 13 buy ratings, with no hold ratings. The high price target is 5.30 million KRW, while the low is 1.50 million KRW.
- High valuation multiples (P/E 53.92, P/B 11.58) suggest significant growth expectations or premium pricing relative to book value.
- Strong profitability with ROE of 21.47% and ROA of 6.99% indicates efficient use of assets and equity.
- Medium liquidity risk is flagged due to negative net cash after debt, despite a current ratio of 1.05.
- Low dilution risk is supported by identical basic and diluted share counts and no recent issuance signals.
- Strong analyst consensus with a mean recommendation of 1.72 and no hold ratings indicates positive market sentiment.
Bull / Bear case
Generated · model-assistedNet income surged 133.5% year-over-year to KRW 520 billion, demonstrating exceptional profitability acceleration in the latest fiscal period.
Analysts project 61.2% upside to a mean price target of KRW 4.2 million, reflecting strong institutional confidence in future performance.
Free cash flow expanded 111.6% year-over-year to KRW 359 billion, providing substantial liquidity for debt reduction or reinvestment.
Long-term debt decreased to KRW 852 billion, improving the balance sheet while maintaining a conservative debt-to-equity ratio of 0.36.
