[Market Highlight] GS P&L Surges Over 4% on Strong Earnings Expectations

GS P&L continued its upward trend for the fourth consecutive day, regaining the 50,000 won mark.

As of 9:28 a.m. on March 13, GS P&L was trading at 50,300 won, up 2,400 won (5.01%) from the previous day. The stock has been rising for four straight days and has surpassed the 50,000 won range for the first time this month.

Expectations for strong financial results appear to have been the driving force behind the stock price increase.

On this day, NH Investment & Securities initiated coverage of GS P&L with a 'Buy' rating and a target price of 74,000 won. Lee Hwajeong, a researcher at NH Investment & Securities, stated, "We expect strong earnings growth based on leverage, driven by the growth in average daily rate (ADR) thanks to an efficient hotel portfolio and the normalization of operations at The Westin Seoul." She added, "Given that there is potential for further upward revision of earnings estimates after confirming the pace of ADR growth, there is also ample room for an increase in the target price."
