Yesterday, LG Uplus announced its new Corporate Value Up plan, in conjunction with the appointment of a new CEO in 2025, Hong Bum-Sik who is the company’s current head of corporate strategy. We think the plan is modestly positive but not as transformational as KT’s. Our brief thoughts below.

KT Corp (Buy, TP: KRW 70,000, +68%) Q3 24 Quick Take: Top line impacte...
KT saw weaker service revenue but better headline EBIT and bottom-line growth from a lower base last year. Mobile kept steady and core B2B inflected to growth despite restructuring efforts, service revenue trend was impacted again by weakness in Content and BC Card.

SK Telecom (Buy, TP: KRW 100,000, +74%) Q3 24 Quick Take: Encouraging...
SK Telecom saw revenue accelerate again on the back of B2B Enterprise demand. Mobile also kept steady as the environment stayed benign. Notably, capex spend remains disciplined while operating profit was up 7.1% YoY off lower depreciation and continued cost control. The recently announced Corporate Value Up plan was largely expected.

KT Corp (Buy, TP: KRW 70,000, +59%) New Corporate Value Up Plan Repre...
Following SK Telecom’s plan to improve corporate value, KT has highlighted three priorities to further its corporate value yesterday. Building up to its 9-10% return on equity target by 2028, it aims to build up its AICT contribution and improve EBIT margin to 9%, optimise latent value from non-core assets and has also guided for an additional KRW 1tn (US$ 0.72bn) in buybacks/cancellations, in excess of its current 50% shareholder remuneration policy. Our thoughts below.

11 bit studios: risk profile increased materially (downgraded to HOLD)
We have downgraded 11 bit studios to HOLD (from Buy), cutting our 12M price target (PT) to PLN 355 (from PLN 840), which implies a limited 14% potential upside. Following the market’s disappointment with the release of Frostpunk 2, the stock has fallen sharply, by 51% since 17 September. As a result, the 2024E valuation multiples may appear undemanding vs. its peers. However, we believe that, with the disappointment from 11B’s strongest IP, the company’s risk profile has increased materially, so...
