South Korea - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

South Korea over the past four decades has demonstrated incredible growth and global integration to become a high-tech industrialized economy. In the 1960s, GDP per capita was comparable with levels in the poorer countries of Africa and Asia. In 2004, South Korea joined the trillion dollar club of world economies, and is currently the world's 12th largest economy. Initially, a system of close government and business ties, including directed credit and import restrictions, made this success possible. The government promoted the import of raw materials and technology at the expense of consumer goods, and encouraged savings and investment over consumption. The Asian financial crisis of 1997-98 exposed longstanding weaknesses in South Korea's development model including high debt/equity ratios and massive short-term foreign borrowing. GDP plunged by 6.9% in 1998, and then recovered by 9% in 1999-2000. Korea adopted numerous economic reforms following the crisis, including greater openness to foreign investment and imports. Growth moderated to about 4% annually between 2003 and 2007. Korea''s export focused economy was hit hard by the 2008 global economic downturn, but quickly rebounded in subsequent years, reaching 6.3% growth in 2010. The US-South Korea Free Trade Agreement was ratified by both governments in 2011 and went into effect in March 2012. Throughout 2012 the economy experienced sluggish growth because of market slowdowns in the United States, China, and the Eurozone. The incoming administration in 2013, following the December 2012 presidential election, is likely to face the challenges of balancing heavy reliance on exports with developing domestic-oriented sectors, such as services. The South Korean economy''s long term challenges include a rapidly aging population, inflexible labor market, and heavy reliance on exports - which comprise half of GDP.

Overview

LG Chem, Ltd. (LG Chem) pioneers in the manufacture and marketing of high quality petrochemicals, information and electronic materials, and industrial materials. The company is the leader in a few of its businesses, which allows it to achieve stellar performance enjoying a competitive advantage. However, legal proceedings and huge debt compared to various other companies in the sector are few causes for concern to the company. Nonetheless, growing demand for hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and strategic plans would provide growth opportunities for the company. Yet, stringent regulatory obligations restricting chemical industry, and competitive pressure could pose several challenges to the company in sustaining profitable growth.


Strengths

 

Dominant Market Position in Polarizer Market

Business competency in terms of market leadership would drive the company’s growth and provide it a competitive advantage. LG Chem is a leading provider of petrochemicals to global polarizer market. Polarizer for TFT-LCD comprises 95% of the entire polarizer market and the company is the leader in large-area TFT-LCD polarizer market in 2012 following from 2010. According to industry estimates, as of mid 2012, LG Chem had a market share of 27.7% overshadowing 25.3% market share of Nitto Denko and 25% of Sumitomo Chem. In the TV-use polarizer market, LG Chem competes with Nitto Denko and Sumitomo Chemical for the leading place. In the monitor-use polarizer market, LG Chem dominates with a market share of approximately 45%. The company’s market-leading position is driven by its manufacturing know-how for value-added products at competitive prices. The company’s leading market position would enhance its brand image and provide multiple growth opportunities.

 

Strong Research and Development Capabilities

Operating in technology intensive businesses, LG Chem continues to invest in new and advanced technologies across all its business fields, which will enhance its competitive position. The company engages in basic and applied research to develop new products and processes to enhance existing products and processes and to develop new applications for existing products. Since its inception, the company introduced several breakthrough products and technologies. It developed and launched TFT-LCD polarizers, LCD color filter photoresists, OLED materials, printed circuit board materials, and the industry’s first 2,400 mAh, 2,600 mAh, and 2,800 mAh lithium-ion batteries. In the petrochemical business, the company develops specialty products, catalysts, processes, and eco-friendly plasticizers. LG Chem registered more than 9,000 patents worldwide, creating a strong intellectual property portfolio that makes it increasingly competitive in the global marketplace. The company has Research Park in Daejeon, Korea which includes (Corporate R&D Center) and Information & Electronic Materials R&D Center, Battery R&D Center and Petrochemicals & Polymers R&D Center. LG Chem also has a global R&D network with satellite labs in the US, Germany, Russia, and China. Thus, strong R&D base helps the company develop new products and sustain its leading market position.

 

Vertical Integration in Petrochemicals Business

LG Chem is vertically integrated across the value chain of petrochemical industry, which enables it to identify various cost synergies. The company produces quality petrochemicals ranging from basic distillates to specialty polymers. Its petrochemical business engages in the production of ethylene, propylene, mixed C4s, and pyrolysis gasoline, synthetic rubber and specialty resins, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) materials, acrylates and plasticizers. The company attained vertically integrated production system in the PVC and ABS businesses through a merger with LG Daesan Petrochemicals in 2006 and LG Petrochemical in 2007. Furthermore, capacity expansion of ABS plant in China enhanced the company's position in the global ABS industry. LG Chem’s vertically integrated petrochemical businesses would increase its cost competitiveness and reduce the dependency on third party suppliers.

 

Weaknesses

 

Legal Proceedings

Involvement in litigations leading to legal proceedings will incur additional costs to the company and affect its profitability. In December 2012, the company and few of its overseas subsidiaries were investigated by U.S. Department of Justice in relation to price fixing of small secondary batteries. In the same month, the company and its subsidiaries were named as defendants in eight lawsuits. Recently, Nippo Shokubai Co. Ltd. filed a lawsuit against LG Chem seeking an injunction and damage for LG Chem's infringement of Nippon Shokubai's Korean patent, 481,059 relating to the polymers for concrete admixture used in construction industry. Nippo Shokubai stated that it heavily invested in research and development to achieve improved quality and productivity of polymers for concrete admixture such as AQUALOC. In response to the lawsuit filing, it discontinued production and sale of its polycarboxylate copolymer; namely, CP-ST. Regardless the outcome, such lawsuits could impact the results of operations. Further, adverse decisions could hamper its brand equity gained over the years.

 

Debt Obligations

For the fiscal year 2012, the company recorded a total debt of KRW2,946,907m. It total long-term debt stood at KRW1,195,126m, an increase of 73% over 2011. This could impair its ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures or general corporate purposes, especially if the ratings assigned to its debt securities by rating organizations were revised downward. It could restrict the flexibility of the company in responding to changing market conditions and make it more vulnerable during times of slowdown. Another major consequence of the company's indebtedness would be that the company would require allocate a substantial portion of the cash flow from operations to pay the principal and interest on debt, thereby reducing funds which could be used for expansion through acquisitions, on marketing and the expansion of product offerings.

 

Opportunities

 

Positive Outlook of Petrochemical Industry

LG Chem could be benefited from the potential global petrochemicals market. According to the in-house research reports, the global petrochemicals industry was valued at $733.4 billion, and it is expected to grow at a rate of 8.8% to reach $1699 billion by 2020. Global market for polyethylene is expected to reach $186 billion in 2020. In addition, total world market for polypropylene is expected to grow at a rate of 8.4% during 2010-2020 to reach $109.1 billion. Such growth in petrochemical sector is expected to be driven by Asia Pacific, and Middle East and Africa regions. Petrochemicals demand in Middle East and Africa is expected to grow at a rate of 11.2% from 2010 through 2012. Asia Pacific’s petrochemicals market is expected to register CAGR of 10.2% during 2010-2020 to reach $1070 billion. Such a strong outlook of the petrochemical industry could help LG Chem expand its geographic operations and explore untapped markets to bolster top-line growth.

 

Strategic Growth Initiatives

The company focuses on business expansion through organic and inorganic methods. It focuses on increasing the output of petrochemical products; as well as LCD glasses, batteries and films used in 3D televisions. In 2012, the company reported total investments of approximately KRW 2.1 trillion. It primarily invested in expansion of production capacity of highly profitable products such as SA P, acrylates, and high EVA. LG Chem also invested in 3D FPR and LC D glass substrates in the IT & Electronic Materials segment. The company’s investments in Batteries segment focused on new production and expansion of polymer batteries and automotive batteries. In 2013, LG Chem plans to invest in SSBR and High EVA product categories. Such focused investments give an opportunity for the company to increase its sales and market share.

 

Growing Demand for Hybrid-Electric Vehicles (HEVs)

The growing demand for clean vehicles would provide an opportunity for the company to boost its sales and strengthen its market presence in its batteries segment. LG Chem engages in production of both lithium-ion and lithium-ion polymer rechargeable batteries. The company’s batteries find application in various industries, including robots, robot vacuum cleaners, electric bicycles, electric wheelchairs, and electric and hybrid vehicles. The world demand for hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) is expected to reach 4 million units in 2015. The HEV demand is high in Chinese and South Korean market, mainly due to government interest in dealing with mobile emissions (China), and planned local production of HEVs in both China and South Korea. The rising demand will boost the battery market to $8.6 billion by 2015.

 

Threats

 

Competitive Pressure

LG Chem's business operations face intense competition from both domestic and foreign chemical manufacturers, which may have a negative impact on its performance. Increased competition may lead the company to reduce its prices, which could negatively affect its margins. The company operates in a progressively more complex and challenging chemical marketplace whose dynamics is ever-changing. Its key competitors include Dow Chemical Company, Sumitomo Chemical, Samsung SDI Co., Ltd., Nitto Denko Corporation and others. Technological advances by any player in the market could make its present or future products obsolete or uneconomical. The existing market includes companies of varying sizes; some more specialized than the company with respect to particular materials, and some with greater financial resources than the company. It competes in this evolving marketplace on the basis of many factors, including price, quality, innovation, service, reputation, distribution and promotion.

 

Infringement of Intellectual Property

LG Chem’s intellectual property rights could be challenged, invalidated, or infringed by its competitors. The company owns trademarks for its various products, including. The company has strong R&D activity which allowed it to develop several new technologies and products. The company’s intellectual property includes copyrights, patents, trademarks, industrial design rights and various trade secrets. Currently, the company has more than 9,000 registered patents and several patent pending applications worldwide. Failure to meet the requirements in securing its technology could adversely hamper the company’s competitive position. Similarly, the company could face infringement claims and incur additional costs that would affect its profitability.

 

Stringent Environmental Regulations

LG Chem’s business could be affected by the environmental regulations governing the global chemical industry. The company is subject to variety of laws, regulations and policies by the Government of South Korea and other foreign governments, where the company operates. One of such is REACH (Registration Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals), which regulates the products manufactured and marketed in Europe. REACH exemplifies the stringent regulatory environment that is set to affect chemical producers. Phased over a period of 11 years, the regulation mandates all companies to develop and submit dossiers containing datasets about their chemical products and detail their potential impact and risk on environment. This will prove to be a challenge while launching new products as it is a time-consuming and expensive process. It may also result in phasing out many existing chemicals from the market, which may be regarded as toxic and hazardous. REACH directly applies to over 30,000 different chemical substances that are produced or sold in Europe and its implementation is expected to cost European chemical industry about $3 billion. Other countries too are expected to model their regulations after REACH. The US also implements similar regulations with the reform of Toxic Substances Control Act.
