           Market expectations for Medytox are rapidly being revised upward. This year’s projected revenue is 293.6 billion KRW, and next year’s is 366.9 billion KRW far above last year’s 228.6 billion KRW. This also significantly exceeds the company’s earlier guidance of 261.0?274.5 billion KRW for this year and 283.5 billion KRW for next year.

Medytox recorded 64 billion KRW in Q1 revenue, the highest quarterly result in its history. The key factor: full operation of Factory No. 3. A company official noted, “With only Factory No. 1 in operation, we couldn’t meet demand. The new factory resolved this bottleneck.” Factory No. 3 reportedly has annual capacity of around 600 billion KRW, nearly 10 times that of Factory No. 1.</p>

As exports rise, so does the average selling price and overall profitability,” the company explained.</p>

Operating margins are expected to reach 17.5% this year and 22.0% next year, up from just 8.9% last year.</p>
