On December 22, analyst Jonghyung Lee of Kiwoom Securities stated, "Through the recent electricity rate system reform, KEPCO has secured a minimum structural profit capacity regardless of fuel cost fluctuations. Additionally, the climate and environmental-related costs included in the electricity volume have been separated to lay the groundwork for reflecting future increases in climate and environmental charges. This reform is the first step toward normalizing KEPCO's stock price, which had been undervalued for a long time due to profit uncertainties caused by external variables. Preparatory work for reflecting climate and environmental charges, the next step, is also underway." He set KEPCO's target price at 38,000 KRW.


Over the past five days, individual investors have net purchased 1,275,561 shares of KEPCO, while foreign investors and institutions have net purchased 1,054,068 shares and net sold 731,271 shares, respectively.
