II. BUSINESS CONTENT
1. Business Overview
The Company's principal business is the manufacture of semiconductor front-end process equipment used for semiconductor device production, with semiconductor equipment-related sales accounting for over 95% of total revenue. The semiconductor process is broadly divided into front-end processes (which fabricate chips by processing wafers) and back-end processes (which assemble and test fabricated chips). The Company manufactures and supplies to domestic semiconductor device makers PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) — a thin-film deposition tool used in front-end processes — and Gas Phase Etch & Cleaning equipment, which is a dry-etching tool. In addition, the Company develops and supplies Thin Film Encapsulation systems used in display manufacturing and MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) equipment used to fabricate wafers for UVC LEDs, delivering them to relevant customers domestically and overseas.
For Q1 2026, on a consolidated basis the Company recorded revenue of KRW 97.2 billion, operating profit of KRW 22.2 billion, and net income of KRW 24.6 billion.
