We believe INNOCEAN Worldwide, which had been seeking an M&A deal to internalize Kia’s North America creative duties from 2018, chose to acquire the automaker’s current agency. Deal structure: 1) INNOCEAN Worldwide will invest W32.8bn in wholly-owned (Maintain) Buy subsidiary INNOCEAN Worldwide Holdings (IWH). 2) IWH will acquire a 100% stake in D&G, paying 50% in January 2018 and the remaining 50% over the next four years Target Price(12M, W) ▲ 96,000 based on the agreed percentages (tied to annual earnings).

We forecast the North America region KOSPI 2,469.48 to contribute 55% of the company’s 2018 gross profit, up 8%p YoY. The company should also benefit from the US tax reform, which is expected to lower the corporate Market Cap (Wbn) 1,502 tax rate from 35% to 20% from 2019.
