LG Display Co. Ltd. Share Price and Fundamentals (034220)

Overview

LG Display is a major display-panel supplier whose OLED and LCD products reach television, computing, mobile and automotive markets. Its reported revenue growth of 40.00% offers a positive top-line signal, but a -5.34% profit margin shows that growth has not yet translated into profitability. The shares recently stood at KRW 8,250, close to the 52-week low of KRW 8,120 and far below the high of KRW 17,950. They were also below the 50-day moving average of KRW 9,124.20 and the 200-day average of KRW 11,583.55, leaving the near-term technical picture weak.

LG Display develops and manufactures OLED and TFT-LCD panels for televisions, computers, tablets, smartphones, wearables and automotive displays, selling across South Korea, China, other Asian markets, North America and Europe. Its reported revenue was KRW 25.3T, with revenue growth of 40.00%, while its market capitalisation was 4.1T. Despite that growth, the reported profit margin was -5.34%, so the business has yet to convert its scale into positive profitability on this measure. The company operates in the technology sector and consumer electronics industry, where demand spans several device categories but can shift with product cycles and customer requirements.

A conventional earnings-based valuation is difficult to interpret alongside the supplied zero EPS and negative profit margin. Market capitalisation is 4.1T against reported revenue of KRW 25.3T, but those figures alone do not establish whether the shares are attractively valued. Profitability and the ability to sustain revenue growth are important considerations when assessing the company.

Target price

KRW 12,363.16

Target vs last price

51.51% from last price

The supplied analyst target price is KRW 12,547.37, or 52.09% from the last price. That figure is secondary context rather than a forecast: the operating picture remains mixed, with strong reported revenue growth alongside a negative profit margin. The share-price position also warrants attention, as it is near the 52-week low and below both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages.

Risks

LG Display’s negative profit margin highlights the risk that revenue growth may not translate into earnings. The business is exposed to changing demand across televisions, computing, mobile and automotive displays, as well as competition and the costs of developing and manufacturing display technologies. The share price is close to its 52-week low and below both supplied moving averages, reflecting a weak recent technical position.
