On the same day, Lim So-jeong, a researcher at Eugene Investment & Securities, said, "First-quarter earnings are expected to be 54.7 billion KRW in sales and 23.1 billion KRW in operating profit. The operating profit margin (OPM) is projected to be in the mid-40% range," adding, "Following the fourth quarter, sales of sockets for research and development (R&D) at new application sites have occurred, leading to improved performance compared to the same period last year."

He added, "With overwhelming miniaturization technology, the company will continue to explore new growth opportunities across memory and logic semiconductors, front-end and back-end processes, semiconductor chips, and semiconductor substrates. Although there is typically demand for testing new high value-added chip products, it is not comprehensive; however, as production volume increases and competition among manufacturers to secure yield intensifies, global main tech companies' demand for Rino Industrial's Rinopin and sockets is expected to grow."
