CJ O Shopping (035760 KQ) Earnings matter more than valuation Retail Valuation has little significance at this point Two things need to be considered when investing in CJ O Shopping (CJOS) : valuation Company Update and earnings trajectory. From a valuation perspective, CJOS has become very attractive. December 14, 2015 Currently valued at W1.1tr, the company looks extremely cheap, given the W1tr in proceeds expected from the CJ HelloVision sale. But at this point, we believe increasing valuation appeal will only serve as a floor for the stock price. In our view, what matters (Maintain) Buy more than valuation is a turnaround in earnings. Given weaker-than-anticipated revenue growth, we expect any meaningful turnaround Target Price (12M, W) 254,000 in earnings and shares to come after 1Q16. Due to portfolio restructuring, not only are gross merchandise sales (GMS) in the TV channel declining, but mobile GMS growth is Share Price (12/11/15, W) 183,600 also slowing down. Expected Return 38% Earnings to remain weak until 1Q15, but full-year earnings to pick up in 2016 For 4Q15, we forecast non-consolidated GMS to remain flat YoY at W847.1bn and OP (15F, Wbn) 110 operating profit to decline 8.6% YoY to W33.2bn. For most of the year, profits have Consensus OP (15F, Wbn) 112 sharply declined on a combination of falling GMS and rising SG&A expenses (i.e., higher transmission fees and marketing spend). In 4Q15, however, the fall in GMS shou ld slow, EPS Growth (15F, %) -25.1 leading to a more moderate decline in profits. Market EPS Growth (15F, %) 22.5 P/E (15F, x) 15.1 Looking ahead to 2016, we estimate non-consolidated GMS and operating profit to Market P/E (15F, x) 11.2 expand 4.0% and 6.9% YoY to W3.25tr and W117.2bn, respectively. TV GMS should rise KOSDAQ 653.48 0.6% YoY, but mobile GMS should increase 20.4% YoY , driving overall GMS growth. On the expense side, we expect the SG&A ratio to modestly decline on the back of a slower Market Cap (Wbn) 1,140 increase in system operator transmission fees, the dissipation of herbal supplement Shares Outstanding (mn) 6 refund expenses, and a deceleration in promotional expenses. Free Float (%) 56.6 Foreign Ownership (%) 21.3 Looking at quarterly earnings, we see a slight decline in 1Q16, a strong pickup in 2Q16 Beta (12M) 0.11 amid an improved business environment, and modest growth in 3Q-4Q16. 52-Week Low 175,200 52-Week High 272,700 Maintain Buy and TP of W254,000 (%)(%)(%) 1M1M1M 6M6M6M 12M12M12M We view the CJ HelloVision sale as positive, given the overall cable market environment Absolute -2.8 -15.0 -28.6 (slowing growth and declining transmission income) and the price of the deal (which is Relative -0.7 -6.7 -41.3 more than double the book value of CJOS’s stake). CJ Group’s decision to drop out of the Coway bidding is also good news. However, we believe CJOS’s cash assets should be 160 CJ O Shopping KOSDAQ priced at a discount until the company can come up with an efficient way to use its 140 excess cash. We retain our Buy call and target price of W254,000, which reflects the 120 sum of 1) the value of earnings (non-consolidated), 2) the value of the Dongfang CJ 100 stake, and 3) the value of cash holdings and investment securities. 80 60 12.14 4.15 8.15 12.15 Daewoo Securities CCo.,o., Ltd.

Cheil Worldwide (030000 KS/Buy) Acquisition of Samsung Lions baseball team Media Cheil Worldwide announced it will buy a 64.5% stake in the Samsung Lions on January 1st , 2016 Issue Comment The move is part of the company’s efforts to expand its sports business and boost December 14, 2015 domestic revenue growth Parent revenue to increase in 2016 on the back of sports club operations and Olympic- related marketing activities Daewoo Securities CCo.,o., Ltd. [Telecom Service / Media] Cheil Worldwide to expand sports business and push up domestic revenue Jee-hyun Moon Cheil Worldwide announced it will acquire a 64.5% stake in the Samsung Lions baseball team +822-768-3615 on January 1 st , 2016. The baseball team is a corporation, unlike other sports clubs under the [email protected] Samsung Group umbrella. Cheil Worldwide plans to purchase stakes from Samsung Electronics (SEC), Samsung SDI, Samsung Electro-Mechanics (SEMCO), and Samsung C&T for W675mn, which should boost its stake in the Samsung Lions to 67.5%. Samsung Lions (fiscal year end of November 30 th ) posted revenue of W51.1bn and a net loss of W17.1bn in 2014, but turned to profit this year with revenue of W58bn and a net profit of W25.6bn (preliminary basis). This year’s earnings improvement was partly due to one-off gains from the sale of property to Samsung Life for W16.2bn in February. Looking ahead, the baseball team is expected to maintain breakeven-level earnings. Cheil Worldwide’s decision to buy the Samsung Lions seems motivated by the firm’s intent to expand its sports business and boost domestic revenue growth. The decision does not come as a surprise, given that Jae-yeol Kim was appointed head of the company’s sports division last year. Since his appointment, Jae-yeol Kim has put major sports clubs under the umbrella of Cheil Worldwide, including the Suwon Samsung Bluewings (football), Seoul Samsung Thunders (basketball), Yongin Samsung Life Blue Minx (women’s basketball), and Daejeon Samsung Bluefangs (volleyball). Cheil Worldwide’s domestic top-line growth has stagnated since 2014, when parent-based revenue fell to W871bn (vs.

  • Samsung Press Information
    Company Overview History of Samsung Samsung's history dates to 1938 when "Samsung General Stores" opened in North Kyung- sang Province, Korea. The company conducted its trade business until the 1950s when it became a producer of basic commodities such as sugar and wool. In 1958, Samsung be- came involved in the insurance industry by incorporating a local fire & marine insurance company. During the 1960s, Samsung became one of the first Korean companies to actively expand its overseas trade. The group consolidated its manufacturing base by adding paper and fer- tilizer businesses. Samsung continued with expansion into the life insurance business, strengthened its retail operations and then moved into the communications sector, success- fully establishing a newspaper and a broadcasting company. The 1970s were a crucial period in shaping present-day Samsung. Its strengths in the semi- conductor, information and telecommunications industries grew from the significant in- vestments made during this period. Samsung also took a meaningful step toward heavy industries by venturing into aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding and construction, as well as chemical industries. In the 1980s, Samsung expanded its efforts into exploring the larger markets overseas. The group began contributing to foreign economies by building facilities in the US, the UK and Portugal. Samsung also invested considerable resources into fostering Korea's rich heritage by supporting a wide range of cultural and artistic activities. The final decade of the 20th century saw the evolution of Samsung's new approach to management. Chairman Kun-Hee Lee's insightful vision and the introduction of the "New Management" in 1993 acknowledged the need to transform management philosophy in or- der to keep up with a rapidly changing global economy.

Abstract Despite the growing popularity of professional baseball in South Korea, academic literature lacks much quantitative analysis of its fans. The main purposes of this current study were two-fold. Firstly, it was to identify if fan attitudes and expenditures are associated with and different by demographic variables. Secondly, it was to find out if fan attitudes and expenditure positively predict and explain the variance of future propensity to spend on products and service. A total of 1612 fans who attended Korean baseball games voluntarily participated in this study. The survey questionnaire consists of five sections of demographics information, sport fandom, satisfaction of social media service, satisfaction of the baseball stadium, and future propensity to spend on products and service at the ballparks. An exploratory analysis found that fan attitudes and expenditures differed by demographic variables (e.g., gender, education, age). Second, fan attitudes about the baseball team, satisfaction with baseball stadium, satisfaction with team media social media services, and current venue expenditures proved to bepositive predictors of future propensity to spend on team products and service (FPSPS).
