[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] An analysis has emerged that MCNEX's current stock price is undervalued considering its mid- to long-term growth potential, including diversification of its client base.

MCNEX posted sales of 412.5 billion KRW in the third quarter of this year, an 18.1% increase compared to the same period last year, and operating profit of 26 billion KRW, a 24.5% decrease, surpassing market expectations. Researcher Lee Gyu-ha of NH Investment & Securities explained in a report on the 4th, "The main reason for the favorable performance is the increase in smartphone sales of major domestic clients and the expansion of market share among clients."

The fourth quarter is also expected to deliver results that meet expectations. Researcher Lee forecasted, "Although sales slowdown of clients, inventory adjustments, and price reductions are expected to cause a decline in performance compared to the previous year and quarter, market expectations will be met through sales of new products."

The current stock price is also considered attractive. Researcher Lee analyzed, "Considering the expansion of domestic client sales, upgrades in camera specifications, the favorable trend in the automotive electronics business, and growth potential from mid- to long-term client diversification, the current stock price is undervalued and attractive," adding, "The current stock price is undervalued at a price-to-earnings ratio (PER) of 6.6 times based on next year's earnings per share (EPS), making it an attractive level when considering fundamental improvements."
