IT parts and materials Hansol Chemical (014680 KS) Daewoo Securities Co., Ltd. Will Cho A rising star to be reckoned with +822-768-4306 [email protected] Earnings: In 2013, we expect Hansol Chemical to report revenues of W336.2bn (+13.2% YoY) and an operating profit of W37.1bn (+32.5 YoY). The companyÊs hydrogen peroxide sales are projected to surge 21% YoY, as capacity expansion completed this year is likely to drive top-line growth. Although electronic materials will generate only W15bn in revenues, their contribution to the companyÊs overall profitability improvement should be significant. Growth theme: 1) Hydrogen peroxide, despite its wide usage across various industries, is produced by only a small number of makers. Thanks to the oligopolistic nature of the Buy (Maintain) market, downward pricing pressure is low and demand is stable, allowing these makers Target Price (12M, W) 35,000 to post healthy earnings irrespective of overall economic conditions. Share Price (11/23/12, W) 25,800 2) From 2013, we expect Hansol ChemicalÊs high-end semiconductor material sales to Expected Return (%) 35.7 EPS Growth (12F, %) 126.4 pick up full swing. Despite the businessÊ modest revenues of around W10~20bn, its OP Market EPS Growth (12F, %) 9.6 margin is extremely high, at over 30%. For small-cap companies like Hansol (annual P/E (12F, x) 9.7 revenues of around W300bn and operating profit of around W30bn), semiconductor Market P/E (12F, x) 10.2 materials can deliver huge operating leverage effects. KOSPI 1,911.33 Catalysts: 1) The growing contribution of electronic materials to HansolÊs revenues will Market Cap (Wbn) 291 allow the stock to undergo a re-rating. Three years ago, saw its Shares Outstanding (mn) 11 profitability surge as its sales of high-end semiconductor materials accelerated. We Avg Trading Volume (60D, '000) 52 believe that Hansol is following a similar path to Cheil Industries, which is now widely Avg Trading Value (60D, Wbn) 1 viewed as an IT materials maker, rather than a chemicals producer. 2) If Hansol Dividend Yield (12F, %) 1.9 becomes the exclusive supplier of semiconductor materials to Samsung ElectronicsÊ Free Float (%) 63.4 (SEC) NAND fab in China (slated to begin operations in 2014), the companyÊs profitability 52-Week Low (W) 15,400 52-Week High (W) 26,800 should improve further. Beta (12M, Daily Rate of Return) 0.21 Risks: Risks include delays to customersÊ approval of new semiconductor materials and Price Return Volatility (12M Daily, %, SD) 1.8 a failure to win supply contracts. A possible supply glut in the hydrogen peroxide market Foreign Ownership (%) 2.1 also raises concerns, as Taekwang Industrial has joined the competition (the number of Major Shareholder(s) producers remains small, however). Nevertheless, since Taekwang Industrial caters to Cho, Dong-Hyuk et al. (18.03%) different customer segments, the impact of its entry into the market should be limited. Allianz Global Investors (14.58%) Treasury stock (10.68%) Valuation: We initiate our coverage of Hansol Chemical with a Buy rating and a target Price Performance price of W35,000 (fair P/E of 14.7x applied to 2013F EPS). The stock is currently (%) 1M 6M 12M trading at a 2013F P/E of 11x, close to the average P/E of the companyÊs peer group Absolute 5.7 58.3 40.2 (cyclical electronic materials stocks). We believe that the stock is undervalued, Relative 6.5 52.6 33.0 considering Hansol ChemicalÊs stable customer base, high earnings visibility, and profitability improvements on increasing revenues from its growth drivers.

Daewoo Securities Co., Ltd. Yeo-sam Yoon Fixed Income Weekly Sr. Fixed Income Strategist Remains too early to unload positions +82-2-768-4124 [email protected] Global uncertainty may ease sooner than expected Last week, global financial markets shifted to a risk-on mode, with the 10-year UST yield climbing 10bps to 1.69% and the Dow gaining 3.35% to rise back above 13,000. A

revival of risk appetite raises the possibility that global uncertainties, particularly in the US and Europe, may start to ease earlier than expected. But we still reiterate our view that the global uncertainty will favor safe-haven assets until early 2013. Nonetheless,

investors should be open to the likelihood of global financial and economic conditions improving faster than expected.

Build positions if the upper end of trading range is broken

The three-year KTB yield rose by 7bps to 2.84% last week. In addition to a rise in global yields, a foreign sell-off of KTB futures also eroded sentiment for KTBs. The bond market should continue to correct early this week, but it remains too early to evacuate from the market altogether. Rather, if bond yields break above the current trading range, that should be seen as a short-term trading opportunity, in our view. The wonÊs recent appreciation, particularly against the yen, dims the already gloomy outlook for KoreaÊs economy. Given the intense competition in global auto, machinery, and IT product markets between Korea and Japan, it is easy to assume the wonÊs rise dented KoreaÊs October industrial production and November exports. The wonÊs rise is another reason we believe there should be more trading chances in the bond market if yields break above the current trading range, at least until the end of the year.
