<li>This insight provides a trading strategy on LG Energy Solution (373220 KS) with a focus on the end of the ESOP shares lockup period on 27 January.</li>
<li>Currently, LG Energy Solution is trading at P/E of 46.5x in 2024 which is more than 100% higher than the P/E multiples of CATL (20.4x) and Tesla (19.2x) in 2024.</li>
<li>Our view is that in the long-term, LG Energy Solution should not trade at such high valuation premium to Tesla given the latter company's higher return on capital.</li>
