Hyundai G.F. Holdings: A Holdco Creation With In-Kind Investment in HDS & Hyundai Green Food

By Douglas Kim

  • Last week, Hyundai Dept Store Group announced that it will establish a single holding company structure with Hyundai G.F. Holdings controlling all of the group affiliates.
  • Hyundai G.F. Holdings plans to make an in-kind investment in Hyundai Department Store (HDS) to make Hyundai Green Food and Hyundai Department Store as subsidiaries.
  • This in-kind investment in HDS and Hyundai Green Food by Hyundai G.F. Holdings is not a deal that adds clear-cut value to Hyundai G.F. Holdings’ shareholders. 

Posco DX’s KOSPI Transfer Listing: Hankyung Exclusive Report

By Sanghyun Park

  • Posco DX has begun the selection process for its lead underwriter for its transfer to the KOSPI market and plans to complete the transfer listing within this year.
  • Considering the recent retail insanity witnessed in most local large-cap battery stocks, Posco DX will likely experience further intensified short-term price fluctuations with this new development as a catalyst.
  • The likely replacement for Posco DX’s KOSDAQ 150 spot is Konan Technology, which has become a top reserved issue in Posco DX’s GICS sector (Information Technology) in the previous review.

PhilEnergy IPO: Trading Strategy on the First Day of Trading

By Douglas Kim

  • PhilEnergy IPO will start trading this Friday on 14 July. We believe that PhilEnergy’s share price will surge higher on the first day of trading.
  • We believe PhilEnergy’s shares could OVERSHOOT by more than 200% versus the IPO price on the first day of trading, which would be more than 102,00 won or more.
  • Our trading strategy on PhilEnergy on the first day of trading would be to take partial profits (30-50%) if its price overshoots higher (by 200% or more than IPO price).
