Over sold already investor. Because of Citi downgrade, people rush to sell without knowing the fact. It most probably drop due to fear on oil price up + local currency risk. Investor totally forget that world are still shortage of petrochemical finish products. LCTITAN still can increase it ASP price even macro trend is no beneficial. As long as demand overtake supply shortage, ASP price still can increase accordingly to balance out the oil price & currency risk. Investor also forget that the new 200k plant PP3 alrdy start operations on 3rd September 2018 as well, further boost it output production.
let see as it goes, collect slowly as time goes. Biz fundamental is good, just that oil + currency risk. I dont expect Lctitan this Qtr will drop below EPS 10sen by end of Oct result out. For current price 4.60, it way already factor in all the bad news below.
Lctitan sell its product to its mother company, they can increase or decrease ASP as they like. Left pocket to right. Naphta price might not have much impact to its operation cost.
Don't underestimate the impact of increasing Naphtha price to the cost of production. It's the major raw material to produce ethylene which eventually made into products that Lctitan is producing.
Lotte Group has been highly concerned over whether the appellate court's upcoming ruling Friday on Chairman Shin Dong-bin's bribery charges will set him free or not, industry officials said Thursday.
Industry officials say Lotte will face huge risks in its businesses here and outside of Korea, if the absence of the top decision-maker lingers for more than a year if the court decides to keep him in prison. Lotte has postponed its decisions on major M&A deals worth 11 trillion won since the chairman's arrest.
It has also suspended a plan by Lotte Chemical to invest 4 trillion won in Indonesia to build a giant petrochemical complex on land it bought from the state-run Krakatau Steel in 2017. Lotte Vice Chairman Hwang Kag-gyu told reporters in September that many of Lotte's businesses including those in Indonesia have been suspended due to the internal matter.
The ruling tomorrow is expected to have major implications for Lotte, and potentially the Korean economy as well. Lotte, with a net worth valued at over 100 trillion won ($89.4 billion) and annual revenue of 90 trillion won, is Korea’s fifth-largest conglomerate.
drop below eps of 10 cents is not hard, actually lctitan operating profit is flattish only...don't get cheated with their latest qtr number....i see a few here mention about long term investment...hmm....remember petro chem industry itself is cyclical...that's mean time is not on your side...

https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2018/10/251_256515.html Appeals court suspends Lotte Group chief's jail term Posted : 2018-10-05 16:12Updated : 2018-10-05 16:46 Lotte Group Chairman Shin Dong-bin was released from jail on Friday after an appellate court suspended his sentence on bribery charges.
The Seoul High Court sentenced Shin, 63, to 2 1/2 years in prison, suspended for four years. Shin had been in a detention center since February over involvement in a corruption scandal that led to the ousting of former President Park Geun-hye last year.
The lower court sentenced him to 30 months in prison for giving 7 billion won (US$6.2 million) in bribes to a nonprofit foundation controlled by Choi Soon-sil, Park's old friend at the heart of the scandal, also now in jail.
The appeals court on Friday ruled in line with the lower court's judgment that the nation's fifth-largest conglomerate gave the money to win government blessing for its duty-free business.
But it ruled that Shin made the decision "passively" for fear that refusing Choi's request would hurt Lotte's interests. (Yonhap) T
