Soosan Industries Pre-IPO

Soosan Industries is looking to raise about US$189m in its upcoming Korean IPO.

Soosan Industries (SSI) is a private maintenance firm that provides general maintenance services for power plants in South Korea. The services provided by the firm covers ordinary (routine) maintenance and planned preventive maintenance, which includes preventive and predictive type maintenance.

Revenue had slightly fluctuated over the track period, owing to the pandemic, whilst SSI has managed to grow its order backlog. As its business scaled, its profitability improved as well, with margins expanding over the track period. Based on a preliminary look at margins, the firm seems to be doing better than the industry’s average.

Given the downstream nature of where the firm sits, it is highly reliant on the underlying energy generation sector, which is subjected to government policies/regulations. The other energy segments are set to ride on tailwinds which could outweigh the overhang on the tougher outlook on the thermal energy segment, and the firm has growth plans, with the balance sheet to back it.
