An EDaily “특징주” piece notes L&F hitting a fresh high with the stock up nearly 15% as brokers raise earnings forecasts and lift the target price to KRW 183,000; Q1 sales of KRW 673.4bn and operating profit of KRW 78.8bn are projected to beat consensus, supported by improved plant utilization, ~20% higher lithium prices, and upcoming dedicated LFP cathode capacity expected to benefit from growing non‑China ESS demand in the US.
