Only five companies such as Samsung C&T Corp. and LG Innotek among the 50 firms reported declines in their cash holdings compared to the ones before the COVID-19 outbreak.“WE WANT ONLY CASH”South Korean companies issued bonds and new shares to raise cash. Last year, companies sold a total of 46.7 trillion won in corporate bonds, including net issuances of 13.4 trillion won. Several companies raised billions of dollars selling new shares. Korean Air Lines Co. and Hanwha Solutions secured 3.3 trillion won and 1.4 trillion won through sales of new shares.Corporates this year focused on raising cash holdings rather than repaying debts despite higher interest rates. They issued a net 3 trillion won in corporate bonds, as well as about 10 trillion won in commercial papers and short-term debts in the first two months of 2022, according to Bank of Korea data. Local banks’ loans to major companies increased by 4.8 trillion won in the January-February period.“Companies had been expected to cut corporate bond issuances due to surging interest rates, but they are actively selling the bonds, saying the current interest rates are the lowest,” said an investment banking industry source.Some conglomerates such as Shinsegae, SK, CJ and Hanwha sold or liquidated their properties to raise cash.That came as uncertainties surrounding business conditions grew amid the war in Ukraine and surging inflation, industry sources said. Companies also amassed cash to shift their core businesses to eco-friendly and digital sectors and deal with industrial changes in the post-pandemic era, according to the sources.“Companies are trying not to reduce cash holdings as much as possible even when they make major investments. They are looking for financial investors or establishing joint ventures for those projects,” said a source of a major domestic private equity fund management firm.By Hyun-Il Leehiuneal@hankyung.comJongwoo Cheon edited this article.2024-09-20 12:54:21
