- KODEX FnGuide Battery ETF Rebalancing Checkup
- RPPL: Strong Earnings Led by Robust Demand and Margin Expansion
KODEX FnGuide Battery ETF Rebalancing Checkup
- I recommend focusing on the ceiling regression play. In this regard, SK Innovation has the most notable regression spread, and we should use Samsung SDI as a hedge against it.
- As for constituent change, SungEel HiTech is firmly positioned with a market cap of ₩1.34T and a float rate of 50%. And it belongs to the Waste batteries keyword.
- But, it is unclear whether SungEel will be in the top 25 in scoring. We should patiently wait until confirmation as it’s still a worthy candidate requiring our attention.
RPPL: Strong Earnings Led by Robust Demand and Margin Expansion
- Q1FY23 earnings came in strong for RPPL led by robust demand and margin expansion. Volumes grew by 23.6% YoY and 24.5% QoQ.
- Operational EBITDA per kg grew by 25%+ YoY and 36%+ QoQ to INR 37.5+ per kg as the price rise in raw materials was passed on.
- RPPL has guided for a strong FY23. It can clock a volume of 10500+ MT and EBITDA of INR 35+ per kg, barring any adverse volatility in raw material prices.
