Mulim Capital Reduces Stake in JaeYoung SoluTech by 2.57%p… Why?

Mulim Capital sold 2,491,775 shares acquired after exercising convertible bond (CB) warrants, reducing its stake from 20.73% to 18.16%. Given its initial purpose of simple investment, profit-taking seems highly likely.

JaeYoung SoluTech Hampered by Sluggish Performance

According to the 2025 semi-annual report, JaeYoung SoluTech’s consolidated revenue increased, but operating profit plummeted by 96.6%, recording a net loss of KRW 2.95 billion. Foreign exchange losses and increased interest expenses are cited as the main causes. While standalone performance improved, the consolidated sluggish performance will inevitably negatively impact investor sentiment.

How Will Mulim Capital’s Stake Reduction Affect JaeYoung SoluTech’s Stock Price?

The decrease in stake amid sluggish performance could further dampen investor sentiment. Downward pressure on the stock price is expected in the short term, and the process of absorbing the large sell-off volume and earnings improvement will determine the direction of the stock price.

What Choices Should Investors Make?

Short-term investors need to take a cautious approach, considering the possibility of increased stock price volatility.
Mid- to long-term investors should watch for the growth potential of the nano-optics business and efforts to improve the financial structure, and check whether profitability improves and financial soundness is secured.
