<p>Our base case valuation is based on 28.6x our estimated net profit of 15.3 billion won for the company in 2022. Our valuation multiple of 28.6x P/E is based on the average P/E valuation multiple of the peers in 2022. Our valuation sensitivity analysis suggests a low-high value of 30,222 won per share to 55,407 won per share.</p>
<p>Silicon2 Co has better metrics than its peers for operating margins, ROE, and sales growth. As such, one could make the case of higher valuation multiple for the company as compared to its peers. </p>
