SK Telecom (017670 KS/Buy) SK Telecom (017670 KS/Buy) Share repurchase and subsidiary acquisition Telecom Service SKT disclosed share repurchase plan and decision to acquire SK Communications Scale of share repurchase is 30% larger than the original plan; Positive for the stock Issue Comment Acquisition of SK Communications is necessary to be in compliance with the MRFTA September 25, 2015 Share repurchase is positive; Acquisition of SK Communications was inevitable Daewoo Securities CCo.,o., Ltd. 1) Share repurchase to boost shareholder value [Telecom Service / Media] SK Telecom (SKT) disclosed yesterday its plan to buy back W523.2bn worth of its shares Jee-hyun Moon (2.02mn shares) from September 25 th to December 24 th . This amount is around 30% higher +822-768-3615 than the firm originally planned. SKT aims to boost shareholder value through the buyback. [email protected] th Following a share swap on June 9 with SK Broadband (to convert the firm into a wholly- owned subsidiary), SKT’s treasury shares declined from 9.8mn to 8.11mn (as of end-June). This move negatively affected its stock price. After the planned stock repurchase, the number of treasury shares is anticipated to rise to 10.13mn (12.5% of total shares). The firm is expected to increase its year-end dividend payments regardless of the repurchase plan. SKT’s stock closed yesterday at W261,500, equivalent to a 2015F P/E of 11.1x (13% lower than the upper P/E band over the past year) and a P/B of 1.2x (17% lower than the upper P/B band over the past year). The firm’s ROE is similar to the global peer group average of 12%, but its 2015F P/E is 54% lower than the average of 17x, suggesting that the stock is deeply undervalued relative to its global peers. Moreover, the telco’s earnings are projected to improve in 2H compared to 1H. As such, its decision to repurchase shares should be positive for the stock price. 2) SKT to acquire SK Communications from SK Planet to conform to the MRFTA SKT decided to acquire SK Communications (066270 KQ) by purchasing 28.02mn shares (64.54% stake) from SK Planet. The decision was likely inevitable due to the requirements of the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act (MRFTA). The acquisition will be made in the form of distribution in kind (61.05% stake; 26.52mn shares) and over-the-counter contracts (3.46% stake; 1.5mn shares; W11.1bn in cash). SK Communications is a third-tier subsidiary of SK Holdings, a second-tier subsidiary of SKT, and a first-tier subsidiary of SK Planet. As the MRFTA requires second-tier subsidiaries to wholly own third-tier subsidiaries, SK Planet (as a second-tier subsidiary of SK Holdings) decided to dispose of its stake in SK Communications to be in compliance; with SKT’s acquisition, SK Communications will become a second-tier subsidiary of SK Holdings.

September 25, 2015 SK Telecom To be in compliance, SK Planet was originally slated to sell 22.14mn shares of SK Communications to IHQ. Under a plan announced on August 26 th , SK Planet would have sold SK Communications shares to IHQ in return for IHQ shares (via a rights offering with a third- party allotment). However, the deal was canceled on September 23 rd , as C&M, the largest shareholder of IHQ, still had not received approval from its creditor. We believe the cancellation led SKT to come forward to buy the company. The acquisition will change the status of SK Communications to a second-tier subsidiary within the SK Group and a subsidiary of SKT. The acquisition date is October 1 st , three days ahead of the end of the grace period for addressing the third-tier subsidiary issue (October 4th ). Since SK Communications is a listed firm, the acquisition price was calculated based on the September 24 th closing price. SKT will acquire a 61.08% stake in SK Communications from SK Planet via interim stock dividend. As such, the actual cash that SKT needs to acquire SK Communications is estimated at only W11.1bn. In 2014, SK Communications posted revenue of W93.9bn and a net loss of W18.3bn. We think the impact of the acquisition on SKT’s earnings will be limited, as SK Communications’ earnings have already been consolidated in SKT. In the announcement, SKT said the acquisition was aimed at engaging in a next-generation platform business and creating synergies. From a short-term perspective, however, we believe the decision was made in order to comply with the MRFTA. Whether SKT in fact makes strategic use of SK Communications’ services and assets deserves close attention, as the company has announced a mid- to long-term plan to enhance its corporate value. As of end-1H, SKT’s cash holdings stood at W155.6bn. Including investments in short-term financial products, cash holdings are estimated at W555.7bn. On a consolidated basis, cash holdings are projected at W829.6bn (W1.4tr including short-term investments). For the full year, we expect consolidated net profit of W1.89tr. SKT’s acquisition of SK Communications is not the best-case scenario, in our view, but the decision was likely unavoidable with the end of the grace period approaching. In our view, the acquisition should have only a limited impact on SKT’s business in light of SK Communications’ relatively small size and value, SKT’s aggressive expansion of the platform business, and SKT’s announcement of a large-scale treasury share buyback. We maintain our Buy call on SKT with a target price of W350,000. Figure 111.1.

  • Changes and Continued Growth of Foreign Investment
    The Top 20 Korean Multinationals: Changes and Continued Growth of Foreign Investment Seoul and New York, March 5, 2015 Graduate School of International Studies at Seoul National University in Seoul, and the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI), a joint center of the Columbia Law School and the Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, are releasing the results of their survey of Korean multinationals today. The survey, conducted during 2014, is part of a long-term study of the rapid global expansion of multinational enterprises (MNEs) from emerging markets.1 The research for this report was conducted in 2014 and covers the period from 2011 to 2013.2 Highlights In 2013, the top 20 Korean multinationals, ranked by their foreign assets (See Table 1), jointly held US$68.9 billion assets abroad.3 Most firms were subsidiaries of Korea’s eight leading business groups (or chaebols), including Samsung, POSCO, LG, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Hyundai-Kia Motors, SK, Lotte, and Hyosung Group. Five out of the 20 multinationals were also included in UNCTAD’s “Top 100 non-financial TNCs from developing and transition economies” in 2012.4 The average age of the top 20 firms is about 47 years, which is two times the average age of Korea’s top 1,000 firms (ranked in terms of total assets). There is a high concentration by the top players in the list in terms of foreign assets. Among the top 20 companies, Samsung Electronics, POSCO, and Hyundai Motor Company ranked in the top three in that order. There was a significant difference between first and second place, with the foreign assets of Samsung Electronics more than doubling that of POSCO.

  • A Tale of Two Companies: the Emerging Market for Corporate Control in Korea
    A Tale of Two Companies: The Emerging Market for Corporate Control in Korea [draft September 2006] Hwa-Jin Kim* forthcoming in A Decade After Crisis: Transforming Corporate Governance in East Asia (Hideki Kanda, Kon Sik Kim & Curtis Milhaupt eds., Routledge, 2007) “Shakespeare could hardly have written a more convoluted tale of sibling rivalry, palace intrigue and thirst for power.”1 I. Introduction Contested mergers and acquisitions emerged in the business world of Korea in the mid-1990's and have since served as a popular topic for the media. The surprising takeover of Hannong Corporation by Dongbu Group in 1994 opened the gate for such transactions in Korea. This was followed by the abolition of the statutory protection of control as of April 1, 1997. In the recent years, two or three hostile takeover attempts have taken place every year, even targeting member companies of the largest corporate groups like Hyundai and SK. The largest company in Korea, Samsung Electronics, is also said to be vulnerable to potential takeover threat by foreign competitors and/or hedge funds. KT&G’s fight against Carl Icahn and Steel Partners in early 2006 provoked public discussions on the market for corporate control and hedge fund activism in Korea. This article describes and analyzes the current status of corporate control in Korea by summarizing two recent cases together with relevant laws and regulations: SK Corporation’s (SK’s) fight against Sovereign Asset Management and contest for control over the Hyundai Group (Hyundai). Active policy discussions in respect of the market * Associate Professor of Law and Business, Seoul National University College of Law.
