Amorepacific Group: A New CEO & SoTP Valuation Discount

<div class="content-highlight">
<p><strong>Amorepacific Corp is our 2021 high conviction idea in Korea. It is a turnaround play as the top company in the Korean cosmetics sector after a 'once in a century' pandemic.</strong></p>
<h3><strong>Key catalysts are as follows:</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>An inverse relationship between cosmetics consumption and wearing masks &amp; COVID-19 cases</li>
<li>Improving data on overseas online sales of luxury cosmetics segment </li>
<li>A big restructuring</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Valuation</strong></h3>
<p>If we apply a 3.6x P/B multiple (25% lower than the 5-year historical average) on Amorepacific using an estimated book value of 4.7 trillion won (at end of 2021), this would suggest an implied market cap of 17 trillion won, or 291,000 won per share (representing a 48% upside to current levels over a one year view). Given this attractive upside, we have a positive view of Amorepacific Corp.</p>
