Sangsangin Securities analyzed on the 25th that an unprecedented theme is imminent for Pearl Abyss and that it still has abundant buying appeal.
Choi Seung-ho, a researcher at Sangsangin Securities, stated in a report on the same day, "The stock/game with the biggest momentum and theme this year is Pearl Abyss's Red Desert," adding, "Therefore, the PC version of Black Desert in China (expected to be released within the year) and its earnings are just the bread of a red bean bun, while the core red bean will continue to be Red Desert."
Researcher Choi Seung-ho analyzed, "Now, investors' and users' attention is drawn more to the quality of the game than the release timing, and the quickest way to assess this is through awards and reviews at Gamescom in August," adding, "Considering the lineup of games confirmed to participate so far, the probability of Red Desert winning an award is not hopeless."
He explained, "Only games that have paid and supported among the participating game companies are judged, so winning is not that difficult," and added, "Even this time, both SONY and Nintendo, the two biggest pillars in the game industry, are absent, and the main games at the event currently include Monster Hunter Wild, Dune, and Red Desert."
He also said, "If it wins an award, not only will there be marketing effects, but the quality will also be proven," and added, "It has been confirmed through detailed private reviews at G-Star that this is Korea's largest-scale game ever, and now it is time to verify not only the scale but also the quality."
Furthermore, he analyzed, "If the anticipation for Red Desert continues to remain high, the stock price can continue to follow an upward curve," and "While maintaining the estimated 2025 sales revenue of 307.3 billion KRW for Red Desert, reflecting the net sales of Black Desert Mobile/PC in China, the estimated operating profit is raised by 22% to 193.8 billion KRW."
