The thesis is a bottleneck position as the only Korean supplier of CNT conductive additives for both cathode and anode — an essential battery additive. FY2025 battery-materials revenue of KRW 66.3bn (59.4% of total, +65.3%) drove growth, and KRW 59.0bn of it was exports, so it is tied directly to LG Energy Solution, Samsung SDI and SK On's local cell expansion in the US and Europe — serving them from local CNT plants in the US and Poland is the moat. As silicon-anode adoption grows, demand for single-wall CNTs that suppress swelling rises, lifting both material price and volume, while semiconductor/display materials (CMP slurry, TCO targets) cushion the battery cycle. Risks: 60% of revenue is concentrated in the three cell makers, so delays in EV/cell expansion swing results sharply, and costs hinge on CNT-powder raw materials (82.9% of raw materials).
