[Special Stock] Unid Expected to Re-rate with Front Market Growth... '52-Week High'

Unid's stock price is on the rise. Securities analysts' assessments that the company is entering a re-rating phase due to the development of the upstream market appear to be influencing the stock price.

As of 10:01 AM on the 21st, Unid is trading at 110,800 KRW, up 6.54% from the previous day.

Yoon Jae-sung, a researcher at Hana Securities, stated, "In the United States and elsewhere, the surge in electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and the simultaneous achievement of decarbonization goals have highlighted the importance of gas power generation and carbon capture and storage (CCS) as one of the power generation methods." He added, "Moreover, major global companies have officially started projects to produce blue hydrogen and ammonia by reforming gas and capturing carbon through CCS."

He continued, "Under the trend of a massive energy transition, CCS plays a very important role, and its investment cycle has officially begun. Carbonic acid and potassium hydroxide are used as adsorbents for carbon capture, and Unid holds a 40% global market share in this market," he explained.

He further noted, "Operating profit in the second quarter is expected to increase by 32% quarter-on-quarter, and operating profit for this year is projected to improve by 300% compared to the previous year, indicating positive earnings momentum. This year will see earnings improvement, and 2025 is expected to witness a full-scale valuation re-rating."
