From a renowned automobile manufacturer to the heart of robots, the blueprint for future mobility drawn by HL Mando. > News

The key factor driving HL Mando's stock price surge is its 'actuator' technology, which plays the role of a robot's joint. An actuator is a composite part that combines a motor, a reducer, and electronic devices for precise control, and is the most important element that determines the movement of a robot. Global investment banks, including Goldman Sachs, evaluate that the motor control and precision deceleration technology that HL Mando has accumulated over the past several decades while developing automobile steering systems is optimized for the implementation of joints in humanoid robots. In particular, in order for robots to operate stably for a long time in industrial settings, it is essential to control heat generation and maintain high durability. HL Mando has already applied advanced heat management technology, such as multi-layer structure design, to its products, gaining an unrivaled competitive advantage in this field.

The company's strategic actions are also an important basis for solidifying market trust. HL Mando went beyond simple parts supply and began improving its business structure by establishing a 'new business team' dedicated to robot actuators within its research and development organization at the end of last year. Our great strength is that we have already completed technical verification in the market by supplying products to Boston Dynamics' quadrupedal robot 'Spot'. The fact that we are strengthening our production capabilities centered on our North American production bases to supply parts for next-generation robot models such as Tesla's humanoid 'Optimus' in the future proves that we are faithfully implementing the supply chain stability and localization strategies required by global robot companies.

HL Mando's growth potential is not simply limited to the robot market, but also comes from strong synergy with the existing automotive electronics business. The fact that the company has been selected as an excellent partner by General Motors (GM) for six consecutive years proves that the company's quality control capabilities and global supply chain operation capabilities are world-class. As a new growth engine called the robot industry is added to the foundation of stable performance proven in the finished car market, the securities market analyzes that HL Mando's corporate value has entered a phase of reevaluation. In particular, in an environment where supply chain reorganization between the United States and China is accelerating, HL Mando, which has a production base in North America and has secured quality reliability, is likely to be recognized as an irreplaceable partner to global automobile and robot manufacturers.

Market expectations are expressed in concrete figures such as an increase in the target stock price. Domestic and foreign securities companies, including Samsung Securities, highly evaluate the growth potential of HL Mando's robot actuator business and are raising their target prices one after another. The strong inflow of market buying power, to the extent that the stock price volatility mitigation device (VI) was activated several times, shows that HL Mando is going beyond a simple theme stock and is establishing itself as a key beneficiary of the future mobility and robot industries. The fact that the PER index is higher than the industry average may be somewhat burdensome, but it is also evidence that the market highly values ​​HL Mando's future growth value and technological entry barriers.
