Korean trade press (EBN) reports that LG Energy Solution has completed the sale of the building and related facilities of its U.S. Honda JV battery plant for about KRW 3.74 trillion, securing significant cash to strengthen its balance sheet, reduce debt and fund growth investments. The article highlights plans to pivot existing North American EV lines toward high‑growth ESS demand, expand ESS capacity to 50GWh, and target a turnaround to profit (excluding IRA credits) from 2Q, framing the transaction as reinforcing long‑term growth and financial health.

Yonhap News wire reports that LG Energy Solution has completed disposal of all building and related facility assets (excluding land and equipment) of its Honda JV ‘L‑H Battery Company’ plant in Ohio to Honda’s U.S. unit for KRW 3.7416 trillion. The story quotes the company as saying that despite a valuation cut versus the original plan, the transaction brings in “over KRW 3.7 trillion” of cash, securing liquidity, alleviating short‑term investment pressure and improving cash flows while maintaining plant use through a leaseback—clearly presenting the deal as a balance‑sheet and cash‑flow positive action.

Newspim’s “Morning Report” covers an iM Securities note that raises LG Energy Solution’s target price from KRW 560,000 to KRW 620,000 and reiterates a ‘Buy’ rating. The analyst argues that structural ESS demand from AI data centers (AIDC) and expansion of the U.S. ESS market will drive medium‑term earnings recovery despite near‑term EV battery softness, positioning LGES as a key beneficiary of ESS‑led growth and supporting a more bullish valuation.
