What Hyundai Elevator does

Korea's leading elevator and escalator maker, also a key holding vehicle within the former Hyundai Group corporate structure.

Earns from new-elevator installation contracts, which follow Korean building starts and are booked as installation progresses, and from maintenance contracts on units already installed, which recur and tend to be steadier.

In one line: Korea's Otis/KONE.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
