Kakao is trading at 369,000 KRW as of 1:30 PM on the 5th, up 1.23% from the previous day. The trading volume is 369,757 shares, which is 63.46% of the previous day's volume. Kakao is known as the largest mobile communication platform company in South Korea.


On September 25, So-hye Kim, a researcher at Hanwha Investment & Securities, stated, "Recently, the company unveiled the enterprise messenger ‘Kakao Work’ and the enterprise cloud service ‘Kakao i Cloud.’ These services are expected to have a significant impact due to the advantage of being easily accessible through the existing KakaoTalk interface. The recent decision to build its own data center is also seen as a move to accelerate the B2B business and enhance the quality of existing services. The revenue growth rate in the second half of the year is projected to be in the 30% range, the highest among domestic and international peers. Profitability is also expected to recover as new business investments begin to pay off." She set Kakao’s target price at 430,000 KRW.


Over the past five days, individual investors have net purchased 118,985 shares of Kakao, while foreigners and institutions have net sold 158,871 shares and net purchased 53,140 shares, respectively.
