0205 GMT - LG Innotek's stock price appears to fairly reflect an expected 2H recovery in iPhone sales, Nomura analysts Eon Hwang and Heesoo Min write in a note. The South Korea-based Apple supplier's shares have risen 31% over the past three months, outperforming the benchmark Kospi's 2.7% gain for the same period, they say. The company's operating profit could jump 28% to KRW1.1 trillion in 2024 on increased shipments of its folded-zoom cameras for iPhones before being relatively flat in 2025 and 2026, they note. Nomura raises its target for LG Innotek by 16% to KRW285,000 but downgrades the stock to neutral from buy. Shares are 0.7% lower at KRW267,000. (kwanwoo.jun@wsj.com)
