Korea Electric Power Corporation (NYSE:KEP ) Q3 2024 Earnings Conference Call November 13, 2024 1:00 AM ET Company Participants Yang Si-young - Head of IR Conference Call Participants Pierre Lau - Citigroup Operator Good morning, and good evening. First of all, thank you all for joining this conference call.

Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEP) Q3 2024 Earnings Call Transcript

It is highly probable that KEP will re-initiate dividends for the current fiscal year, judging by the positive read-throughs from the company's recent management commentary. Korea Electric Power is likely to be in the black again in FY 2024, and a key earnings driver will be a higher nuclear power generation contribution. I leave my existing Buy rating for KEP unchanged, as the catalysts for an earnings turnaround and dividend re-initiation are still intact.

Korea Electric Power: Catalysts Are Still Intact

NAJU, South Korea , April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On April 30, 2024, Korea Electric Power Corporation (NYSE: KEP) ("KEPCO") filed its annual report including audited consolidated financial statements on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Korea Electric Power Corporation Files 2023 Annual Report on Form 20-F

Korea Electric Power is likely to generate positive earnings in the current year, with expectations that the company will optimize its power generation mix to reduce fuel-related costs.

Korea Electric Power: Return To Profitability And Dividend Reinstatement Are Potential Catalysts

Kim Dong-cheol was recently appointed as Korea Electric Power's new CEO, and he replaces Cheong Seung-il who previously disclosed in May he wished to step down as CEO. A meaningful increase in the electricity tariff rate and a faster pace of revenue diversification are some of the key goals set by the new CEO. I have a favorable view of the new CEO appointment, and this explains why I have maintained my Buy rating for KEP.

Korea Electric Power: New CEO Appointment Is A Positive Development

Korea Electric Power's Q2 2023 performance is expected to be better as compared to the first quarter, considering an electricity tariff hike and lower purchased power costs. KEP's high financial leverage isn't a major concern, taking into account Fitch's credit rating, its debt maturity profile, and asset monetization plans. I leave my Buy rating for Korea Electric Power unchanged, after assessing KEP's financial outlook and its credit risks.

Korea Electric Power: Still Bullish Considering Improved Outlook

KEP's new corporate restructuring plan and the resignation of its CEO have increased the chances of the company successfully securing meaningful electricity tariff hikes going forward. Korea Electric Power's recent Q1 2023 results suggest that cost pressures for the company have begun to ease to some extent.

Korea Electric Power Corporation Files 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F

Korea Electric Power is expected to witness a narrowing of losses in 2023, prior to turning profitable in 2024. Actions taken by the Korean government like tariff hikes and the SMP cap should enable KEP to achieve a better set of results in the near future.

Korea Electric Power: Good Recovery Prospects Justify A Positive Re-Rating

Korea Electric Power's shares staged a strong recovery jumping by +49% in the past two months after hitting a new 52-week trough in late-October. The positive catalysts for KEP include tariff hikes, purchased power cost savings, asset sales, and capex optimization.

Korea Electric Power: Things Can Continue To Get Better

Korea Electric Power's most recent quarterly metrics were poor; Q2 2022 operating losses for the company widened on a YoY basis, and its gross financial leverage ratio rose to 179%. But there are positive changes for KEP, as seen with the recent actions taken by the government and the company.

Korea Electric Power: Positive Changes

KEPCO has a monopoly in power generation, transmission and distribution in South Korea, which is a country with a major fossil fuel-based power component. The South Korean commitment is to decarbonize power, but how KEPCO will manage this is unclear between renewables and nuclear power.
