- Revenue: ₩83.3B (Expected: ₩83B)
- Operating Profit: ₩43B (Expected: ₩41B)
- Net Profit: ₩26.5B (Expected: ₩33.2B)
2. Why the Fluctuation in Performance?
The increase in operating profit is attributed to the synergy effects from the Illuda merger and robust growth in overseas markets. Notably, the growth in consumable sales supported high profitability. The decline in net profit, however, requires further analysis, potentially due to one-off expenses or non-operating income fluctuations.
3. What’s Next for Classys?
Classys’s fundamentals remain solid, and the long-term growth potential remains high. However, careful attention should be paid to clarifying the reasons for the net profit decline, as well as external factors like exchange rate volatility and intensifying competition.
4. What Should Investors Do?
In the short term, investors should seek additional information regarding the net profit decline and be mindful of potential stock price volatility. A positive long-term investment perspective can be maintained, but continuous monitoring of risk factors such as exchange rate fluctuations and intensifying competition is crucial.
