1Q operating profit climbs 26% q-q to W96.1bn
 Kolon Ind reported 1Q consolidated sales of W1,330.9bn, operating profit of
W96.1bn (+25.6% q-q), and net profit of W71.8bn. Industrial materials and
chemicals did well, but fashion and film remained weak. One-off expenses fell
significantly from W30bn in 4Q to W4bn in 1Q.
 OP by division: chemical W25.5bn (vs W25bn in 4Q11), industrial materials
W19.4bn (vs W21.2bn), film W15.9bn (vs W15.6bn), fashion W16.8bn (vs
W28.1bn).

2Q operating profit to rise further to W108.7bn
KOREA
Chemical
 In 2Q, we expect Kolon to report W1,421.4bn in sales, W108.7bn in operating
profit (+13% q-q, assuming it pays W10bn in damages to Dupont), and
W68.7bn in net profit.

 The chemical division’s operating profit will likely remain flat on maintenance,
but industrial materials and fashion should lead earnings grow on strong
seasonality. The film division in particular should enjoy wider margins on
higher demand for optical and solar cell film.

Company Report
Earnings by division (see table 1 for details)
Chem OP up from
W25.0bn in 4Q to
W25.5bn in 1Q
Chemical operating profit came to W25.5bn in 1Q, similar to W25.0bn in 4Q.
Chemical facilities, including those for petroleum resin for industrial adhesive,
continued to operate at 100%. As seen in chart 1, the average petroleum resin price
fell modestly from US$2,890 in 4Q to US$2,827 in 1Q. Meanwhile, the price of
naphtha (which decides prices for key raw materials C5 and C9), rose 16% from
US$889 in 4Q to US$1,030 in 1Q. Kolon Ind passed increased material costs for
January~February on to product prices from March.
Industrial material OP
down from W21.2bn in
4Q to W19.4bn in 1Q.
Industrial material operating profit slipped 8% from W21.2bn in 4Q to W19.4bn in 1Q.
Domestic airbag and tire cord sales stagnated amid seasonal weakness for auto
production. In particular, airbag fabric ASP fell 6% from US$13,039/tonne in 4Q to
US$12,245/tonne in 1Q (chart 4); tire cord prices faced resistance, as Chinese and
Indian tire makers’ utilization rates were at the 70% level. As shown in chart 3, tire
cord prices slipped 5% from US$4,464/tonne in 4Q to US$4,255/tonne in 1Q.
Meanwhile, TPA and EG (key raw materials for tire cord) remained almost flat q-q,
meaning a modest drop in spread.
Film OP remains soft at
W15.9bn in 1Q vs
W15.6bn in 4Q
Film operating profit remained soft at W15.9bn in 1Q vs W15.6bn in 4Q. Operating
margin also stayed weak at 9.5% in 1Q vs 14.2% in 3Q and 9.4% in 4Q. High-margin
solar cell and optical PET film sales stagnated at the 4Q level. However, as lowmargin packaging PET film’s sales share rose, this contributed to stagnant operating
margin. As shown in chart 5, the average price of packaging, industrial, optical, and
solar cell PET films fell 7% from US$4,769 in 4Q to US$4,441 in 1Q.
Fashion OP plunges
from W28.1bn in 4Q to
W16.8bn in 1Q
Fashion operating profit plunged 40% q-q from W28.1bn in 4Q to W16.8bn in 1Q,
due to discounted sales of winter outdoor products. Over January~February, the
fashion division enjoyed robust high-priced product sales, but in March, nondiscounted sales of new products for spring missed forecasts due to abnormal
weather.
1Q one-off costs plunge
from W30bn~35bn in
4Q to W3.0~4.0bn in 1Q
One-off costs plunged vs W30bn~35bn in 4Q. In 4Q, Kolon Ind incurred W20.0bn in
legal fees related to the Dupont lawsuit. Also, it spent W10bn~15bn in year-end
bonus payments. In contrast, 1Q legal fees came to just W3.0bn~4.0bn.
No provisioning for
Dupont lawsuit in 1Q
Kolon did not do provisioning for the ongoing Dupont lawsuit in 1Q. Of the four
rulings (compensation, punitive fines, production suspension, and payment of legal
costs), the Virginia court has yet to rule on production suspension and payment of
legal costs. As a result, Dupont has not yet seized accrued accounts receivable on
Kolon’s exports to the US, but will be able to do so once the court rules. Kolon will
then start to set aside provisioning for the lawsuit.

Company Report
II. 2Q pre-provisioning OP to hit W110.0bn
2Q OP to rise 13% q-q
to W110.0bn
Kolon’s 2Q operating profit before provisioning for the Dupont lawsuit should recover
to W110.0bn. We forecast 2Q consolidated sales of W1.4tn, operating profit
W108.7bn (after W10.0bn in Dupont lawsuit-related expenses), and net profit from
controlling interest W68.7bn. Operating profit should jump 13% q-q (W96.1bn in 4Q).
Chemical operating
profit to stagnate on
regular maintenance
First, the chemical division, producing petroleum resin and other products, will likely
post stagnant operating profit of W26.4bn despite product price hikes, as it will
suspend petroleum resin production for about one month of maintenance at the Ulsan
plant in April, decreasing operating profit by W2.0bn~3.0bn.
Industrial material OP
to rise on seasonal
strength
Second, industrial material operating profit should rise to W25.1bn on seasonal
strength and lower raw material costs. As downstream auto and tire makers keep
utilization rates at 100%, this should be a boon to airbag fabric and tire-cord sales.
So far in 2Q, the prices of key raw materials EG and TPA have slipped about 7% q-q,
which we believe will help lift operating margin.
Optical PET film demand
reviving
Third, PET film operating profit is expected to recover to W19.9bn as demand for
optical and solar-cell PET film revived from mid-March. PET film ASP rose from
US$4,441/tonne in 1Q to US$4,600/tonne in April. As LED TV takes the place of LCD
TV, PET film use has increased by 30~40%. Display panel makers are enhancing the
picture quality of LED TV by using cheaper LED chips and more optical PET film.
Fashion division to
enjoy brisk sales of new
summer products given
hot weather
Fourth, the fashion division should enter peak season, when spring and summer
products are sold at non-discounted prices. Of note, over Apr~May 2012, the average
temperature was 2.4°C higher than a year ago, setting the stage for brisk sales of
new summer products. We estimate 2Q fashion operating profit at W24.3bn, up
W7.5bn vs W16.8bn in 4Q.
Hefty provisioning for
Dupont lawsuit unlikely
in 2Q
Fifth, Kolon is unlikely to set aside hefty provisioning for the Dupont lawsuit (Dupont
accused Kolon of violating trade secrets related to aramid) in 2Q. Currently, the
Virginia court continues to encourage the two parties to reach an accord. In these
circumstances, rulings on additional cases (Dupont filed additional suits claiming that
Kolon should suspend production of aramid and pay legal costs) have been delayed.
Moreover, Kolon did not appeal the decision on the Dupont antitrust case (on Apr 6,
the Virginia court dismissed Kolon’s antitrust suit against Dupont).

III. Maintain BUY, target W110,000
Kolon Ind deserves
attention from 3Q
We maintain our view that Kolon Ind shares will reach W110,000 by end-2012, as; 1)
unlike other petrochem plays, Kolon Ind should enjoy improving operating conditions
in 2H; and 2) damages to be paid to Dupont could shrink, as the court is encouraging
Kolon and Dupont to reach an accord. We recommend paying attention to Kolon
shares from 3Q.
Global auto makers to
complete auto plants in
China in 2H, a boon for
auto material makers in
Asia
First, in 2H, regardless of the Chinese government’s stimulus, demand for auto
materials, especially in Asia, should recover faster than expected, as global auto
makers will complete auto plants in China mostly in 2H. In particular, the world’s top10 automakers had combined auto production capacity in China of 8.8mn units as of
end-2011. As shown in table 3, from Jun 2012, the top-10 automakers are set to
ramp up production capacity in China by a total of 1.97mn units, up 22% vs their
previous combined capacity: GM 800k , VW 300k, Hyundai Motor 300k, Ford 170k,
Toyota 170k, Fiat-Chrysler 140k, and Honda 100k. This means that demand for auto
materials, especially in Asia, should rise. Chart 7 shows chemical products used for
auto production.
Rising demand for auto materials will be a boon to Kolon Ind. The company produces
airbag fabric (ranks 5th~6th globally), tire cord (3rd globally), auto anti-UV PET film,
specialty plastic material used as interior materials (made subsidiary Kolon Plastic),
and auto sheet (made by subsidiary Kolon Glotech).
In 2H, Kolon Ind and
Dupont may reach
accord on lawsuit
Second, with respect to the Dupont lawsuit, Kolon Ind and Dupont may reach an
accord in 2H due to their respective interests. In particular, following the Nov 2011
ruling, if the case goes to a higher court, compensation for Dupont may shrink; while
Kolon would have to pay legal fees of W40.0bn per annum if the case continues. Also,
if the case goes to final trial in Korea after the US trials, this could take over five
years.
Kolon working to reach
accord with Dupont
In fact, Kolon Ind said it was working to reach an accord with Dupont during the
announcement of 1Q earnings on May 24. Moreover, Dupont’s CFO signaled the
possibility of the two parties reaching an accord within the year. If they ultimately
reach an accord, Kolon Ind’s P/B should rise from 0.8x at present to the five-year
average of 1.4x (W110,000 per share).
