STX조선의 기업가치평가 사례

A Case Study on the Valuation of STX Shipbuilding

STX Shipbuilding has not only been one of the fastest growing company in Korea, but also played a major role in the development of Korea’s world-leading shipbuilding industry. As of year-end 2006, the company’s order backlog and shipbuilding capacity ranked sixth in the world, and its exports topped US$ 1 billion. It has recently acquired ownership of Aker Yards ASA, the world’s fourth largest shipbuilder in Europe. With this attempt, the company expects to establish a beachhead in cruise and ferries market where most Korean shipbuilders have not achieved competitive advantage as yet. In this case study, we perform financial analysis of STX Shipbuilding to see if the company is financially secure. We also proceed to its stock valuation using various valuation techniques. The case material to be used in the classroom was prepared at the end of 2007.
