Attention is focused on the visible growth of Kakao Pay and Mobility. 1) Performance improvement based on core services, 2) securing market competitiveness and profitability of new businesses, and 3) re-evaluation of consolidated value through subsidiary listings will be the core of fundamental improvements and stock price momentum driving Kakao." He set Kakao's target price at 280,000 KRW.
